Interesting idea. Hard to control. Not sure what the 3D adds. Could have been a text/adventure/twine game.

Fun platformer. Great level design.
Very minimal. Simple. And fun. I like the title. :)
Really cool. Great visuals.
Simple, yet brilliant. I could play for hours. But I might go insane listening to that song for hours... Maybe add a music on/off switch. Great fun! Nice job.
Tough to understand. Once I figured it out, it was fun conquering the world, I'm thankful the AI isn't smart, or else I would never finish.
Difficult to know what the result of a click is. But I enjoyed figuring it out. I wish I didn't have to redo all the early stages to get to the later ones.
Simple, one button control, and fun. Nice work.
It's really good for 48 hours of work. Lots of room for improvement. Really cool. Love the music.
Wow, thanks for all the comments.
I left out instructions on purpose for the minimalism theme. I just wanted to let people to explore and experiment. Backfired maybe? :D
There's really not much to it. Just move around and enjoy for 2 minutes. You can't lose.
But here's the scoring system I tacked on. Touch a colored square to get 1 green point. When touching a white stripe, you start to flash, and you lose 1 red point per animation frame. Touching a colored square makes you invincible. (Invisible too.)
I also dislike the waiting parts. Everything else is great. I really liked it.
Interesting story. Really buggy and choppy in the web version. I spent so much time looking for that key.
Amazing. Not a fan of the controls (on a touchpad here). But really polished. Amazing music, sound, and visuals.
Nice idea. Really works out my brain. Love it!
Really hard guessing game. Nice drawings.
Hilarious. Like the idea. Got stuck on fifth level though with the glass. I tried beating my keyboard.
Very cool. Love the music. Like the ideas. Skipped all the text. I didn't have patience to wait. Damn, just read you can speed up the text with X.
This is brutal with a touchpad. Fun with a mouse. Nice work!
5 stars for humor! This idea is hilarious!
I don't know why, but I also think this it's fun. Even though you just press space.
Really cool, great job. I wish there was more to it.
I got stuck in a win loop bug, where starting a game just jumped to the you win screen every time.
Great idea. Brilliant. I hope you keep working on it.
I have been trying for 15 minutes. No clue... Need feedback or something.
Really fun game. Wish there was more. This game is better than many mobile games I have played. It kind of reminds me of some sort of mini putt golf game or something.
The mouse controls seem backwards to me. (Or is my brain backwards?) Either way, it was easy to reverse my brain.
Some sound effects would make it cooler.
Also confused how it fits the theme.
Awesome entry. Really like the retro graphics and music. Wish there were more levels.
Same experience here. The loading/transition screens are really long. I want to play, it looks fun.
Wow, genius idea. Really cool.
I think I understand how to play, but it's hard. I'm wondering how far you can go. Funny audio. Nice entry.
The wall jumping felt a bit awkward. But, great art and music. Some real talent here. Great entry!
Huh. Sorry everybody. Not sure what happened. I got the 404 too, checked my dropbox, and it came back up right away at the link.
Nice game. It does get very hard. But it's short, so no big deal repeating once you die. Nice entry.
Also, that was quite the intro.
Love the music. Best music I heard so far in this LD! Really neat game and rewind mechanic. Good use of the theme. Awesome entry.
I also kept forgetting which way I had already gone. (Need sleep...) But, I kept going, because it's really fun. The last level was a fun change.
Also, it was awesome when I figured out I could hold the button to auto shoot. My laptop touchpad was getting murdered.
Nice mechanic for the 10 seconds theme. Good idea. It was a fun entry.
Really dark story... Fun game though. I was able to finish, although it did freeze a few times.
On Windows/Chrome, and it doesn't trigger the level. Darn, looks fun. Love the pixel graphics.
Fun game. I do feel the 10 seconds mechanic is a detriment. Sometimes, I want to stay on my current character, and not cycle through the other two.
Beside that, great jam entry. Nice cute graphics, cool music, cool mechanic. Really enjoyed it.
I also agree that some sound effects would improve it.
Cool idea. Simple rules, but a puzzler that make you think. I like it.
Getting a 404 error at dropbox. I'll check back later.
No worries about the 404. I use dropbox too and had problems yesterday too.
I like the humour. Funny idea. Wish there was more!
Super funny idea. Really hard to get flips. It is rewarding when you get a good flip though.
Controls were a little awkward. I would like to be able to reset quicker after a failed attempt. But, it's a small nitick. Great music and idea and programming. Great entry!
Brilliant idea. The arrows and spacebar scrolled my browser down, making it hard to see the game, for some reason. I zoomed out to fix it, but the text was tinu. (I guess my screen resolution is low?) Great entry.
Hilarious. I wish I thought of interpreting the theme like this.
Cool concept.
Cool idea. Needs to be developed further. Lots of potential.
I was a little confused at first, at the equip screen. Took a few runs to get it. Then I really enjoyed watching the robotos go. Love the funny robot names.
It could really use some sounds, beeps and boops.
Cool idea. Really like it. Great entry.
Poor kitties... Do they at least go to kitty heaven?
I wish there wasn't a 120 second timer. I would like to keep going and keep upgrades. The fun stops too early! Cool entry.
Amazing art and music and sound. The movement and jumping felt a little floaty and weird. I fell into the lava a lot. Really cool entry!
Cool graphics. As others said, jumping is floaty and difficult to control. I guess that's parts of the challenge.
Simple idea for a fun game. Nice entry.
Really cool idea. I would love to see the missing features you mentioned. Great entry.
Weird controls make it hard, but I guess it would just be too easy otherwise. It's actually kind of fun trying to work it.
Really cool game. I like the simple graphics and audio. It's pretty fun.
Cool idea. Lots of opportunity to improve, and expand. Maybe look into making a logic puzzle game. Like liars and truth telling games and such. The panic and sweating are nice mechanics.
Agreeing with other commenters. Cool idea. Confused how to play at first. It's fun, but a bit easy.
Cool entry.
It doesn't work in Chrome for me, for some reason, it just shows a white screen when you start. It works fine in Firefox though.
Really cool entry. This is so much different from the other LD entries.
I also had difficulty getting my first to detect properly.
Maybe add a free mode? Where you can just move your fist around, so I can figure out how to place my fist so I can figure out how to get it detected.
Impressive entry. Good music and animation.
(A few bugs. I saw some weird graphical glitches, and it bugged out at the third wave. It said -80 seconds to next wave and the counter kept decreasing in the negatives.)
Incredible. Great everything.
I did get stuck at the first level with the hostage, then I realized there was a sign at the bottom, which was hidden by my browser. I had to zoom out to see it.
Love the music. Really cool animation. The dancing animation is good. Pretty cool idea.
Incredibly hard. I can't get very far. I wish I could get further so I could see more.
Cool entry. It's pretty fun. It gets a bit repetitive though. Not very challenging either. I'm not sure how I can die, after upgrades.
Weird styles. I like the cartoony art, and the creepy music, but they are weird together.
I couldn't figure out how to pass the box boss. I assume you have to get him inside the walls, but he keeps jumping over the walls.
It's so short, I was having fun. I wish there was a bit more.
Nice entry. Really needs a few sound effects. Also a scoring system would be good.
My only problem was with the way movement is done. Why the line? Why not just click somewhere, and the guy would go straight to it?
Besides that, I thought this was a pretty funny idea. Really fun game. Music is awesome too!
Awesome idea. It's really fun. Wish there was more levels.
I also enjoyed seeing the civilians get eaten. I think their scream was annoying me. >:)
I had a similar idea, but this game is waaay better. Nice work.
Cool graphics. I wish there was more.
Funny idea. Souperman, are you ok...? Nice work for a first entry.
I like the pixel graphics, but they are a bit too simple in some places. I didn't realize at first that there were boulders on the brown part that I could move. It just looks like impassable rocks.
Beside that, it's really fun. Good puzzles when you have the move spell. Great entry.
Nice little game. Good entry.
Pretty good for ~3 hours.
I had a bit of difficulty to get it to load in Chrome, but it works. (I needed to allow unsafe scripts, and allow plugins to run.)
It's a cool idea. I like the chaining. It gets pretty crazy. Nice entry.
I like the idea. Can't seem to succeed at it though. I always die, even after years of education.
Great music. Interesting idea.
I also thought that the clocks had to be accurate to 1 tenth of a second. After I read in the comments that it isn't the case, I replayed and enjoyed it a lot more.
Agreed about level 3 (or 4?), it's a huge difficulty wall. Can't stop trying... but also, can't pass it.
Really like the use of the theme. Good entry.
So good. Amazing. I really enjoyed it.
Same problem as Zuige mentioned with the web version, space bar scrolls the page down, so you have to scroll back up each time. I was able to correct it by zooming out, but that makes the screen smaller. I want to zoom in to make the screen larger!
Besides that, cool music. Great entry. It's fun to play.
Really good entry. It took a bit of time to understand, but it's a fun maze game. Really enjoyed it.
