Yes, it is quite hard! this was done intentionally as we only have three levels and wanted to give a bit of a challenge... But our testing and replaying the game during development might have made us \"too good\" at picking things up. \n\nWe might do a revision of the game later on with _more levels_, an _easier pick up of the items_ and some _quality of life improvements_.\n\nA tip if you still want to try and beat the game: _try to approach the item from the shortest path (in the first level try it from the left side, as you will have more time to try and pick it up)_. On the other levels you can pick up items at your own pace as the enemy can be killed.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"cake","author_uid":1007459,"time":"2020-10-06T13:50:52Z","epoch":1601992252,"modified":1601992252,"text":"@kotovnav **Thank you for the comment!**\n\nSorry again for this, as stated in the reply to **BakemonoMori**, us replaying the game made us \"too good\" at picking up items. In future revision we would make it alot easier! If you still want to try to beat game see the tips I gave on the reply mentioned. _(the first level is the only one where picking up the item is really hard)_\n\nOh, and the bottles, glasses and cigar trays are only there for you to play around with physics and demonstrate the time tarvelling mechanic: _throw them around, turn back time when they are mid air or unitl they are in your hands again._","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"cake","author_uid":1007459,"time":"2020-10-06T13:57:33Z","epoch":1601992653,"modified":1601992653,"text":"@bit-assembly **Thanks!**\n\nWe hear you and we agree that the theme part was slightly _off_...

The second and third level are more puzzle-y, but the first is mostly just running towards the bottle, grabbing it, and slamming the mouse wheel fast enough to survive. It would be nice if you could rewind time from the game over screen. Other than that, it's a neat concept (having to plan things in a sort of reverse order, so you can move back to a better position), and could make a neat game if expanded.\n\nAlso nice jojoke","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"SamDemaine","author_uid":"1180790","time":"2020-10-08T11:14:44Z","epoch":1602155684,"modified":1602155684,"text":"Nice game!
