Too short. But every minute of this game was what browser-based platformers should be. I am SICK of platformers in 2D that can't even come close to getting walljumps right. You nailed it.

Really good game, which it'd totally get full stars from me if it was longer. Also since you give the option to be saved from death with time rewinding, it's worth it to add a little more challenge to it, since we are able to get back from whatever situation with no frustation. The puzzle component was satisfying from the bits we saw. Props to the great music composer too.

This is just a piece of art, why games like this are short? Great music, effects, simply, beatiful, it's a state of the art game

The ending was a tad disappointing. I kept thinking more was going to come after that last sentence, something profound. But it just hangs there... Otherwise, great game. I loved the music and the game play. Wall jumps were nice, and the time element worked well too.

It seems really inappropriate not to credit Braid, given that you use nearly identical game mechanics, along with very similar music, and even level titles.

DE22: At that register, the instrument would probably be a cello. (Or more likely, a synthesized instrument that sounds like one--but that's splitting hairs.) Agreed on the music though, I liked it as well. It was a particularly nice touch to have it go backwards when you rewind time.

I don't want to be the downerman, but it's more or less Braid, mechanics-wise.
Still, good execution, awesome music, but too short, far too short..

I understand Braid doesn't have a monopoly on any of the elements here, but why use similar music and color schemes and level titles? Why isn't it stated anywhere that this is a Braid tribute?

Wow, this is definitely the most stylish way I ever used to take a rocket to some random, not mentioned place :D Awesome and lovely. Only 4.5* bc brevity of the game ;)

Don't get me wrong, this game is good... Well-designed, good atmosphere, good mechanics... It's just that it's Braid 0.1. It had a few puzzles that I did not see in Braid (the "transport yourself back in time to get around moving platforms" puzzles in 4 and 5 were good), but it's ultimately kind of a shame... It's too short, and doesn't do enough new things with the concept.

the concept is really great, some time it's a little hard control exactly how you want but if you mess-up you can always come back in time. Maybe adding a story line, and yes obviously having more level. but really great concept. Like it :D

I agree with Waymethe Wizard, and I'd also like to add that the central game mechanic--reversing time--was awesome, but I didn't understand how it tied into the story of the game. I felt that the ending could have had something to say about being and time (to invoke a little philosophy here), and in that sense the ending was anticlimactic. I did love the race element of the final level, though.
