"The Dungeon Of Deja Vu" is a captivating puzzle-platformer game featuring an innovative rewind mechanic, developed for the Brackeys Game Jam 2020.2. Set within a mystical realm, the game invites players to step into the shoes of a wizard-like character with the ability to rewind time, navigating through a series of intricate levels fraught with doors, levers, and platforming challenges.

Conceived and created within a week using the Unity Game Engine, the game embodies the competition's theme of 'rewind' through its core gameplay. Despite the game's brief development time, constrained by academic commitments, the game successfully demonstrates the potential of its rewind mechanics across several levels.

Feedback from players highlighted the game's strengths, particularly the engagement of the rewind feature, while also noting areas for improvement like camera positioning. Community input played a significant role, which could contribute to the game's potential refinement.

The game achieved a respectable 764th place among 1784 entries. This accolade reflects not only the game's merit but also the robust community engagement and peer evaluation it garnered. The accompanying visuals and player ratings serve as a testament to the game's reception and the valuable insights gained from the gaming community.
