Haha fun and evil idea, great execution - 10 seconds to wake a poor soul up lol. Great work! Sometimes I wonder if this is how real life works...

Fun platformer with a hint of a puzzle game. The camera controller could use a little work, it felt a little to fast as well as too left at times. Overall very fun game, although I was very confused on how the doors worked!

I really like the concept with the clocks reversing back things in the level! It was a bit confusing at first, but once I got the hang of the mechanic along with the extra jump powerups, it became a lot of fun. Random note: The jump SFX is really funny to me for some reason. Nice work!

Really cute game, I love the art and some neat interactions with the powerups and doodads. I wanted to throttle the cameraman though :sweat_smile:

A very simple platformer executed very well with some interested time-related mechanics. I thought all the mechanics were very well introduced for a game jam title, but I was left wanting a bit more once I had finished the game. Nice work!

I really liked gameplay and audio. You managed to complete a lot of different mechanics, great job!

Last night my roommate's clock rings about 20 time makes me cant sleep, and today you give me this, well done Ludum Dare.
A solid platform jumping, I think you can add something that makes it more of a clock theme, like, ummm, a ring ability to wake something up and the thing is two different platform in wake and sleep form?

Great little puzzle game. Tbh the jumping soundeffect was a little bit annoying :sweat_smile: The levels in general were well designed. Good puzzles and i like the resetting time feature. Good job.

good job!

the only thing I'd like to say is to widen up the space of the buttons, sometimes I lose time just to try to fall and press the button for the gates

The idea is very good, I like the mechanism combination of rewinding time and pressing buttom.But there is a problem that sometimes I can hardly see the floor because of the deviation of the view, it will improve my gameplay if it's solved.

It's a really interesting game. On some levels i have to spend time to complete this level. I love dynamic music and some mechanics with platform and return time.

Amazing game. Really catchy graphics. Some work can be done from the gameplay side and can be a made a bit more complex. I think the 10 second rule did redistricted a lot of possibilities. You should try to remove the ten second rule and add a little more complex mechanic in the game, that is if you planning it to take further. Overall good job and all the best. Please do check out my submission as well.

Fun premise and fun gameplay. My biggest complaint is definitely the camera - there are parts where you need to move quickly where the camera doesn't show where you are going.

A fun puzzle-platformer - always a great genre for a jam. I liked how you taught me how to play with the levels. As others mentioned, the camera was sometimes a little all over the place. But I got used to it and in some ways it did add to the sense of speed and rushing!
