Charming art and presentation. The postfx while recording look nice. I liked the chill music and ploop sound when you fall. Movement felt a little rough, like there was too much friction, but overall well done!

Ah yes I was expecting someone to do Chronotron in 3D. Well done!

I loved this, but too much of a brainlet to even finish the second level :(

Solid mechanic and executed well. I think the controls could be a little more fluid. Overall great game!

I had fun with this game, it was just challenging enough.

It like it. Good solid puzzles and intuitive game design. Well done! It is just straight up well made.

Level design and gameplay is really nice, but I would have done something about controls because they feel a bit weird. :(

Pretty cool! Loved the graphics and music, however the isometric flat projection and weird controls were a bit frustrating.
Tamail6 Oct 2020, 10:03
Ohhh, this is such a nice idea! I loved how smooth the controls were, the graphics and sounds were also great... God job!

You're welcome lol

Nice little game. The puzzles were smart, but not too hard (just the way I like it). My only problems were that you sometimes couldn't tell where you were going to land after jumping over a gap, and the fact the player didn't move with the platforms. But otherwise solid entry.

Cute little puzzle game, only problems was exactly same as @kuro mentioned, otherwise great entry(cool level design!).

It looks cool and plays pretty well, the perspective (or lack thereof) makes it a bit too difficult to navigate the world. If you can figure that out you'll have a winner here.

Adorable puzzle game! Very good job, graphics are good and the movement clear, however shadow is not pointing on your feet so it is sometimes hard to know where you jumping, but like @palemek said, amazing entry! Great work :heart:

Solid game! A little hard to line up the jumps for me, the perspective was tricky but that's just function of the perspective. I would recommend looking into drop shadows! They help immensely with jumping platformers. Recorded loop puzzles are great and this game does the mechanic justice.

Bonus points to a fellow jammer making 'Ghost' games :3

Nice, I love the mechanic. The puzzles are well done and the graphics are good!
I kept running into the issue that a recording doesn't trigger a button if it starts on it, only if it enters it. Not a huge deal, but I kept doing it by accident :)

Overall a solid puzzle game, good work!

Very cool! I love the mechanic. Good use of the theme! And leads to great puzzles! Very satisfying challenge progression!

The theme is well used to create this classic puzzle game. The concept and graphics are simple yet elegant, but the controls could be a little smoother.
