An interesting prototype, I'd like to see where it develops! Quite a small level, but still enough space to demonstrate the concept. I think you could make some really neat puzzles with this system. There were a couple of places where you could get trapped, so I had to start again from the beginning, but enjoyed it overall.

I love the concept and art style, good job

The concept is very good. I like that you can kill your past selves which gives for a lot of liberty of gameplay. Would be cool to see some more levels in the future :)

Incredible work! The only bug i found is that you can shoot through the glass without breaking it. Great graphics

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

@hjeldin: I noticed that after the final upload 😱 I want to continue this game so that will definitely be fixed 😁

It's awesome! I didn't see any indication on what the different colors of portals did. But I managed to understand how it works I think. Blue makes a clone of yourself respawn, yellow doesn't and red deletes all your clones. The graphics are nice, the mechanics too and it offers great possiblities! Good job! 5/5

Thanks @elbbard 😄 You're absolutely right, internally those are Tears, Paradoxes, and Cataclysms. The black one is the wormhole. I couldn't fix that bug in my dialogue system in time so my on-boarding efforts kinda died 🙁

It was really good. As you posted on my game, they are indeed similar, yet very different. It was little too short, but it has great potential and I would love to see more of it !

The sound effects and visuals were really good, too bad there was no music !

Very good entry, hope you keep working on it!

Interesting game. I had fun playing. Congratulations on the work, I liked everything. Good mechanics.

The time loop interpretation of the theme was very expected and I was skeptical in advance, but this one was very good, really nice graphics and sounds too :)

Good work, very nice little game. And of course I wish there were more levels, hope you'll be working on that in the future :)

I like the copy concept you have here. It reminded me of a game from Dreams. That's not a bad thing. Thank goodness you had a reset feature because I did get locked in a a couple of times. It fit the theme well too. All around a nice game!

I loved your game! It was a very interesting concept and I found it interesting how you made it a necessary task to kill yourself in the past! Nice art and sound btw.

Super fun game, I'd like to see this turn into a full game. Great work 👍

rizekcajk 2020-10-08 19:18 ♥ 1

Wow. Incredible work. It took me a while to figure out what I have to do but it was worth it. I'd buy this if it were a full game.

I would liked a little ambient audio track in the background but other than that I have no other complaints.. This is a solid game and a hella fun mechanic.. If you have time I would like you to try out my team's game.. I think you'll find it very similar. (Mechanic-wise, but it's own little twist.) Good Luck in the jam, friend!

Awesome. Best I have played so far. Apart from a few minor glitches everything went smoothly. I implemented a *very* similar idea but your execution is way better. Kudos!

the-missing-bracket 2020-10-16 16:51 ♥ 2

executed well

Very well done! Clean artstyle fitting audio and with a background music this would be perfect. Would have loved some levels but i understand that these need time to make in games like this. Overall one of the best entries so far good job!

I like how clean it looks, very nice concept. Would be lovely to see it further developed :)
