Interesting concept. It was fun for a while, but the stiff controls were kind of annoying at times.
Overall very polished game, especially for a first time!

Liked the idea, but controls is too difficult. Would be better if you'll have something like virtual joystick.

hah, ignore those who complain they want Windows!

Its about making a game; geez, from the comments you'd think the average contestant was a just some child with no perspective

Hooray, more Android games!

I really like that you didn't have any visible onscreen buttons overlaying the action, but even with the large touch regions it still felt somewhat awkward to control. It's good to see people experimenting with the tilt controls, and with a time-travel theme on top of it all.

Fun game play and good approach of the theme! Like the others have said, the controls is a little annoying!

From "a childs perspective" I would say that if you intend to create a game and you know the majority of your target group prefers web then followed by windows there is a good chance a lot of people will complain about not being able to play your game.

The child in use however want to play and are sad by the fact they can't.

Alas, I do not have an Android device. Looks very cool, though.

I shot myself! Nice mechanic. I love time-travel-oooops-I-killed-myself-things. The tilt controls are unfortunately not that easy to use. Especially because you have to tilt the phone really far (> 45° ?) to get full speed. Other than that, I think it is a really nice entry for your first game ever.

One thing I forgot to mention: I recommend putting a QR-Code as one of your screenshots on this page. Makes it a lot easier for people to download your game when surfing ld on their desktop.

This is the second game I've seen exclusively for Android...

Awesome concept. I liked the situations that arose from the time travel mechanic. Controlling the character using the tilt was quite hard work, although kind of an enjoyable challenge in itself. The graphics and menus felt quite polished; the tutorial could have done with a bit of proof reading.

I thought the tilt control was a fun feature, will keep this on my phone!
