How does your game fit the theme?
My game fits the theme "Loop" by introducing clones that follow the player in real time during the current loop. However, when the loop restarts, those clones replay the exact movements the player made in the previous loop, moving independently.

I had a similar concept, but you having the timer really turned things up a level! And it's absolutely devious how each loop has a different timer, making me plan out the optimal route for each loop! It was a bit annoying to read the text under such time pressure and it took a bit too long to restart though :)

it`s a nice game, I enjoyed having past clones to help finish the level. I just think the wait time between level restart could be lower

Developer

Thanks! Definitely will do for future updates.

A bit of constructive criticism here: It's really annoying that whenever you die you have to wait like 3 seconds before you can play again. Please make that faster please.  It's also annoying that when you die you have to go to the beginning loop, instead of replaying the loop you were on. 

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing, and I really appreciate the constructive feedback! You're absolutely right — that 3-second wait after dying can definitely be shortened, and I’ll work on making that snappier.

As for the idea of replaying the loop you were on instead of going back to the beginning, that’s a really interesting suggestion! It would actually require a full redesign of how the levels are structured, so it might take some iteration — but I’ll definitely keep it in mind for future updates. Thanks again!

Great game with very good platforming feel. My only complaint is that the difficulty curve is a little steep but other than that it was great.

Developer

Yeah, I totally agree—the level design ended up a bit all over the place 😅 I wanted to introduce a new mechanic in every level to keep things fresh, but I didn’t really have enough time to polish the difficulty curve properly. Definitely something I’ll improve in future updates!
