nice game. But i can't read and run at the same time :)

Nice entry. It was pretty long for a ten second game. Good job.

Looks really nice, and seems to be a alot to it. I just can't make any progress, is there a way to keep the stuff you get? If so, it has to be made clearer.

cosmologicon 2013-08-26 15:27

Ah, I can see how that might not be obvious if you haven't played Majora's Mask. You keep your items (and your game is saved) when you use the Spacetime Kazoo to go back in time.

brassawiking 2013-08-26 15:37

I have played, Majoras Mask, thats why I was looking for the rewind =) Anyways I managed to beat it now and great fun actually, well done!

brassawiking 2013-08-26 15:38

The dungeons were kinda annoying though...

You can't get ye flask....Dennis...

A solid concept well executed. It was a rather frustrating in spots, Particularly getting ye flask. But hey, you know what? Sometimes games should be hard.

I literally cannot think of a properly negative thing to say about this game.

Really liked the graphics and audio, 10 seconds just isn't long enough for me :(
Couldn't stop laughing from the north trick at the beginning xD Great game!

Fantastic game, love the mechanics, didn't take me that long to find the instrument dealer either, is there a reason you used backspace instead of spacebar or something, it would be nice to be able to handle moving and time travel with the same hand. Either way, for such a small development time I feel like the concept and the amount of content is great! Good job man!

legacycrono 2013-08-26 16:46

Wow, this is pretty great! It's pretty hard at the beginning when you don't have any items, but once you understand what you need to do it's really fun =) Good job!

Really fun game. Good sense of humor and generally just a fun little adventure game.

That one guy underneath the tree is a jerk though.

heychinaski 2013-08-26 17:27

A good interpretation of the theme and nice sound.

hbocao 2013-08-27 00:38

I have no idea what I'm doing but I like it!

It´s a little hard to read the speech-bubbles.However, the setting apocalyptical makes me sad. So: great contrast between mood and graphics. Nice game! :-)

Can't get it to run! It gets stuck at 42%! :( I'll get chrome later and try it then.

thermite 2013-08-27 23:46

Fun, and a great use of the theme!

vasileiadis 2013-08-27 23:55

Great game, miyamoto would be proud ;)

Loved everything but mostly how smoothly you incorporated the theme to the game. Keep it up, 5* from me :D

PS: The guy on the tree can be a real pain in the ass >_<

brobutter 2013-08-29 23:04

Kinda frustrating to be honest. I know there's an "easy" mode, but I think that kind of defeats the purpose of the theme being "10 Seconds".

fififox 2013-08-29 23:16

Best game I've played yet, really has a lot of depth to it, and I love everything: the game (with the walkthrough), the story, the references, the art and the music!
A big 5 out of 5, congrats!

awppy 2013-08-29 23:29

I cheated and looked at the walkthrough twice (getting the shoes and train ticket)

This is sizeable for a LD game and plays fairly nicely, but the gem rooms were a bit frustrating to me

johnfn 2013-08-29 23:46

Wow... I admit, this is one of the theme approaches I considered strongly, so I'm really glad that someone else decided to do it! And yeah, 10 seconds is way too fast to pull off this sort of thing (something like 30 would have been better I think), but I played the easy version and (with some help from the walkthrough) won! The amount of content and cleverness that you jammed into this game is really impressive. Very very well done.

nddrylliog 2013-08-30 18:14

I just wanted to say I played it and tried to understand it without looking at the walktrough, but I decided not to rate it because I couldn't afford to spend enough time to rate it in good conscience. I hope you understand :( Sorry!

gre 2013-08-31 17:53

Very interesting game mecanism, I didn't read your description before playing the game and I was able to see the Zelda reference, good job for that.
That's also a 5-star for the theme!

keyboardmonkey 2013-08-31 19:14

I enjoyed the story, wrapped in clever humour, bound with good acting. It is a bit slow at first and got a bit frustrated, but got moving once I had those magic sneakers!

What boggles me is how that train got to the desert so quickly! But I am not one to question temporal anomalies when the end of the world is concerned.

Good game! :D
