You're a hero in an epic inter-tempo-spatial battle against your arch-nemesis. The thing is, messing with space-time fabric isn't the exact definition of "stable"... Can you figure out what's going on?

The win condition and mechanics were intentionally left as a puzzle for the player to solve. (For extra difficulty, don't press the HELP button.)

This is our first time ever participating in a game jam. We couldn't do as much as we initially aimed for and it still needs a few more hours of polishing, but we definitely gathered a lot of experience. Anyways, hope you enjoy it!

This is a good result for the first game jam. I like how time traveling changes the gameplay pace.

Could not figure out how to get the ending, even after playing around 10 times. I like the idea of having to figure out the ending, but I think having a hint in game is necessary. Just trying random stuff out isn't working. The concept is fun though, and I liek the music.

The aesthetic and art are great, especially in the main menu (Promare, Gurren Lagann vibes)! Loved the time travelling as well, change of pace and scenery really added to the game! Good job!

Good job! A life bar would have been useful

Fun little game, I thought killing the big dude would be the ending, but that didn't work for me. Well done!

The sound was pretty loud... i got a fright and had to turn it down.

I think you have to adjust the size of the webgl-area on your itch.io page. The game window was to small to see everything, when playing it on the website.

Congrats on a first jam. Good job!

Crimson... land... it's easy to get started and quite hard and random to get wasted there. But the overall game and idea is nice. Get it going!

Very good result for the first jam game. I really liked the preview with the main character in the game menu.

Nice game, cool simple visual style, but it would be better if I could see my health and recharge special power. Also, a full-screen mode would not hurt for the web version. Congratulations, great job!

Great game. The music is AWESOME !!!
The gunplay part is a bit painfull as the two weapons share the same ammo-clip (crossbow included). I think it would add to the game to separate the two clips. Also make the guns aim at the mouse and not in front of the player.
Good entry in the jam :)
