I really wanted to like this game more than I do since I’ve heard so many great things about it but man I didn’t really enjoy my time with it (no it’s not because my brain is dumb shut up)

I really love the time travel mechanics and each unique world gimmick and the way they’re used in some puzzles are well enough especially when you have that eureka moment, but i feel the game should have been a bit longer and fully expanded on it’s gimmicks such as having longer levels and a better varied amount of enemies since I feel some puzzles are a bit cryptic for my liking, this also links to the twist while cool isn’t explained that well. Like I see there’s a good story here but it’s done in the worst way possible in the Super Mario World Speech Boxes, like why not have pictures to tell the plot like what the Puzzle Pieces do. Plus, I feel the game also controls not that well, Tim feels a bit too floaty and then just drops like a dime, I know it was to put emphasis on the time gimmicks but i feel they should done a better job as you’re not going to use Time Powers all the time.

I think the greatest thing about this game is the presentation, great classical music and the unique paint like aesthetic was great so it was the thing that keep me going throughout.
