I really enjoyed playing this game and i think its pretty polished.
Well done!
Great idea, decent realization. Pretty enjoyed the level design - levels are smart and require thinking and managing of the character. Keep developing it, a really good game.
The platforming mechanics felt pretty solid as well. Graphics are minimalistic but well done.
I agree that a button for rewinding earlier would have been nice to have but it wasn't a real problem since the timer is short anyways.
One suggestion: Explain the restart button in the first level. I messed up and had to come back to this page to look at the controls.
Excellent entry!
Really solid aesthetic too.
It would have been ultra cool to do a little tutorial to explain the mechanic when you start the game. But I saw in a comment above that you didn't had the time. But I guess you could just had a little video here that explains the core mechanic.
Why not space for jump ?
Thanks for the cool game I'm having fun :-)
It means you can still jump even if you passed a bit the platform. This makes a better feeling for the game overall.
