This might be my favorite entry so far! It's a really simple premise but super addicting. I think this idea has a lot of potential to be expanded into a full game! Great work :D

took me a few playthroughs to figure out that the game revolved around pressing shift rather than restarting but really liked it when I figured it out

@slimabob, @platyp Thank you so much for playing. We might make a few more levels later :D

Fun spin on level layout and time mechanics.

47.7! although my pathing was pretty bad :[

It's so short... :[ The gameplay was fun! Definetely could have used a bit more levels! Congratulations on your first entry !!

@zantze Thanks :D I was looking forward to participating in LD Jam for a long time. It finally worked out :D

Fun! Took me a while to get the hang of it, but that's just me xD well balanced game. I would play more levels of this :D

Wow this was very fun to play. Love the mechanics of rewinding the time!! Well done guys.

Fun and interesting concept and the game is quite polished ! However... I don't really see the relationship with the theme... Ok, it has "unstable" in the title, but it translates in the game itself ^^'.

Still a solid entry and a great work !

Nice Game! I liked the cute art style and using the mechanic really felt satisfying. One idea would be to add a sprint to be able to perform bigger and more daring jumps. Together with the mechanics this could be fun.

My best score : 49.9. The time rewinding is interesting.

@metalfox-dioxymore I'm glad someone criticizes as well. Anyway thanks for the feedback and I'm happy you like it :D

@misterjbro Its nice to hear, that the time rewinding feels satifsying :D As for the movement, I have to agree it could be better if you had more control over it.

I love the look of the character! They're very adorable. The rewind mechanic is pretty cool too! It's far from a perfect speedrun, but here's my time:

@100th-coin Hey, that is quite a time! I'm glad to hear you liked it. Although... the character was not made by us 😄 We got it from Kenney. They have a bunch of other simple art like this for games, so you can take a look at it. There is a link in the description.

Really like your game, it's very cool! :)

When time go back, the effect of the screen is very nice, I like it! The art is so nice and the music is wonderful too. Good job!

Interesting game, the rewind mechanic worked really well and was easy to understand. Is the art from kenney the same as GDevelop's stock platformer assets?

cubebuc 2021-10-08 13:30 ♥ 1

Hi, I'm glad you like the rewind mechanic. :D And you are right about the art. The GD platformer asset uses Kenney's art as an example.

michaelgamerus 2021-10-08 17:03 ♥ 1

game is fun to play

essarrgee 2021-10-08 17:13 ♥ 2

I like how there is a puzzle element to the rewind mechanic, since you have to use it quickly or get stuck. Good job on the game!

ache-games 2021-10-10 19:21 ♥ 2

I like this game. In my opinion, space bar pressed should be just one jump.

cubebuc 2021-10-10 21:45 ♥ 0

@ache-games Thanks. The jump actually worked like that, but I changed it, because I though it feels better :D

gurbx 2021-10-12 18:19 ♥ 2

Interesting take on a puzzle platformer! Enjoyed it! The rewind effect is really cool!

python-b5 2021-10-15 19:52 ♥ 1

Nice puzzle design! Reminded me a lot of Braid, but the limited rewind time was a nice twist.

Good job :)

Fun game and interesting mechanics. Nice job guys :)
