One other thing I noted was that it seemed unnecessarily difficult to reach the upper time checkpoint in level 4. I got the hang of it after a while, it isn't the most tedious thing in the world, but at first I just assumed I couldn't reach it. I had fun playing through this, and although it is better for it to be short and polished, I was hoping for some more levels, nothing wrong with that though!
I think the physics could do with a bit of tweaking though. Also, I didn't like that I had to use the mouse to initiate the loop when it's not used for anything else in the game, especially since I have to use space to jump instead of W (I'm sure lots of people prefer this, but it feels odd to me). I think it would be better if you could loop with the keyboard too so you don't have to move to the mouse.
These are easy tweaks though, the game design is solid and it was really fun to play. I'd have definitely continued if there were more levels. Good job.
Great music too!
