This is a small puzzle-platformer game made by me and my wife.
In the game, you are a robot who stuck in the time loop. There is a short time given to escape each level through a time portal. Each time you failed time repeats, but somehow the environment is not affected by this time loop, so you can use it for your needs.
Struggle through all levels to escape from this hell and find out who put you there.



#### Credits:

I did all programming and SFX. Also worked a bit with art.

My wife did the level design and music.

We used tileset by 0x72 and Kenney's fonts, which are free and licensed CC0.

#### Note:
I just uploaded HTML5 version, so please let me know is there some problems with it.

I really like the game! It reminds me of Braid when the robot rewinds itself.

Hey thats nice! at first i thought it was a simple platformer, but as you progress u begin to understand what is going on.
Solid mechanics and execution.
Really like the pixel art.
Well done!

Nice game! The pixel art looks great and the puzzles were interesting. One minor annoyance I found though is that if you fail a jump or something so that you wont have time to do what you want to do you have to wait until the time has run out. It would be nice with a rewind button. But overall, well done!

This is a tricky one - Not all things are stucked in a loop. And I love the classical box and button puzzle. XD
Great job!

Hi! Nice game. However, I found it hard to call the world hell ^^

About Technical issues:
Inclined surfaces sometimes slow down the character's movement. Rewinding effect looks cool

Incredible game. It was probably the best game I played within the proposed theme. I played all levels. and I liked everyone. This game's level design is very good. Congratulations and success.

Cool concept and I also love the mechanism when you get reset, the level stays same but only the robot resets position.

Found a bug in last level, on top right before the box. Sometimes the robot got stuck in the wall. Luckily, the timer reset saved the day :D.

The game has cute little character and very solid foundation with mechanics and great level design. The only wish I have is to make some improvements to the jumping collisions and the jumping itself. Other than that, a very solid entry and great title! Job well done!

Nice platformer. Especially like the animation when you fail level. The game is quite challenging, I like it!

Great job to you and your wife! The game played well, looked and sounded great! Took me a second to figure out the best method to use those 'extra time' balls was to move all the blocks first and then use the balls on the second run. The rewind effect is cool, but as mentioned in another comment, you end up waiting for it if you mess up early in the stage. Another issue I ran into was on the level which introduces the electrical barrier. I pushed the box at the top down the stairs thinking I could use it to block the electrical current. Completely missed that the button was up where I found the box, and so I was stuck since the boxes don't reset.

Again, great job to you both!
