It was a ton of fun trying to maneuver myself with future loops in mind while also, y'know, not dying. It was really smooth all the way through, though at one point I hit an error that crashed the game. I'm not sure what happened, I think it was when I got hit. Other than that, there were no problems.

I was terrible at it but my son quickly found some strategies.  I really like how the inverted time period becomes so difficult, but if you make it through then things calm down again.  Great idea.  Does it have sound?  For some reason a lot of Unity games seem to have broken sound on my laptop...probably something with my computer but I couldn't hear anything.  Oh, also, I couldn't find a way to quit other than Alt-F4.  I tried Esc and Q.  Quit button would be good (or maybe I missed it somehow)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Wolfier","author_uid":"1178134","time":"2020-10-05T23:36:28Z","epoch":1601940988,"modified":1601940988,"text":"So I ran into two possible types of crashed. One was happening at the end of the loop, and the other was happing at the end of the rewind. \n\nFun Game, its just too bad i can't get any farther without crashing. \n\nThe time rewind is really interesting, hopefully it will stay unique since the main idea of this jam seems to be using your former selves rather then avoiding them.\n\nThe enemies could stand to look a little different from you as it was hard to tell which one was me when they are all designed the same with the same brightness of colors.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Darkhex","author_uid":"1212916","time":"2020-10-06T00:14:03Z","epoch":1601943243,"modified":1601943243,"text":"I wasn't aware that you can hotfix the game post jam.

Not sure if that's good, but it was definitely a lot better than my first few attempts!  First couple of games I was totally bamboozled about why the game was ending, if it was not because I directly took a hit.  Came back to read the instructions and realized I was probably killing my past self.\n\nAfter that I had a strategy:  Take over the left side of the screen, and for the first life just bulletspam to the right while walking up and down.  Second life doesn't shoot.  I sort of looped back and forth between spammy and mostly-passive lives.\n\nBut even then I was a little confused because I wasn't sure about the rules of the enemy playback ghosts.  Or were those greyish guys something else?  There was a lot going on and it was all happening fast and when I did something wrong the screen instantly disappeared, so it was not easy to learn in this game through experience.\n\nBut the action was fast-paced so I didn't mind restarting, and the concept was interesting enough that I wanted to explore it, and the controls were tight enough that I felt like it was my own mistake when I did die.  So I found myself getting sucked into \"one more try\" mode, over and over, which is a great sign!\n\nNice music, effective graphics, tight controls, and a unique concept -- all around a nice package!\n","likes":1,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld47\/212922-f391a446ee2c4b18e1677bed826b980e.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/darkhex.itch.io\/leten-paradox","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"https:\/\/darkhex.itch.io\/leten-paradox","text":"Youtube"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"56796","g_author":"1212916","g_event":"LD47","g_eventkey":"76","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"265410","g_title":"Leten Paradox","g_status":"PVT1","g_place":"652","g_commentcount":"23","g_site2_node_id":"212922","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"212922","n_urlkey":"265410","n_parent":"212256","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/47\/leten-paradox","n_slug":"leten-paradox","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"212916","n_created":"1600377859","n_modified":"1601985878","n_version":"694058","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":212922,"parent":212256,"superparent":9,"author":212916,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2020-10-05T19:38:54Z","created":"2020-09-17T21:24:19Z","modified":"2020-10-06T12:04:38Z","version":694058,"slug":"leten-paradox","name":"Leten Paradox","body":"**Hello there**.
