Nice game! The idea of needing to reach the next checkpoint within a time limit is fun and a good use of the theme, and the levels are the right amount of difficulty.

Suggestions: - The UI moving with the player is off-putting, it should be static - You could reset the timer when you touch a checkpoint - More music and sound effects!

A nice little platformer overall.

I got myself stuck in the floor under an elevator :)

A solid platformer with a good number of levels and a nice implementation of the theme. Some spots took me a few tries but eventually I beat it. Overall I agree with the sentiments and suggestions of @pleb2 above. Good effort!

@pleb2 i tried more sound effects but it was bad and time resets when checkpoint idea might make it change the wibe of a broken time watch

@aquanim wile playtesting i got stuck under a moving platform a lot as well and a funny thing was it took me more time to paly test then making the levels lol :laughing:

This is a really good effort for your first game!

I really recommend studying how old platformers handled jump physics, because the very sharp up down turn in this one feels pretty jarring.

I'll also third the advice from @pleb2.

Again though, this was a nice project to see. Keep at it!

I would make it so the the timer resets when you get to a checkpoint. Not sure how hard that would be but seems like an intuitive choice.

Great game creativity, I feel that we can make a 30-second countdown game based on this gameplay.

@dyguests thanks

Hey there Godot user :)) I made my game with godot, too. anyway your game was fun but needs polishing.

Nice game for a starter. There are some bugs and glitches where we can get squished by platforms and we can't get out until we run out of time to our current checkpoint. I feel the game might be a little imbalanced since I couldn't really get through the third level or maybe it's just me not being a good gamer lol. I had a bit of fun playing this. Good job! Keep up the good work :)

third level was meant to be a easy final level

I liked getting stuck in sand desu Favorite part of the game. Nice little thing though seriously

I liked the game concept! The Jumping was a bit awkward though and you could be smooshed by the platforms and thrown out of the map. With a little polish though it has potential!

@turkey thanks

Partly match the theme, maybe next time it will be better.. Fun factor is not high at this game, but maybe next time you will think more about that and it will be better.

Nice game!

@pedrocoden thanks

Cool game! It could use some small quality of life improvments. Like, visible cues for getting a checkpoint, checkpoints could regenerate time and maybe a button to reset the time manually.
