Repair & Rewind

This game was created in 96 hours for GMTK 2025 following the theme 'Loop'. Our game incorporates the theme on multiple layers; through the physical looping of cassette tapes, the puzzle loop present within the gameplay and accompanying looping audio elements, as well as the broader narrative loop of exploring early LGBTQ+ relationships across time; particularly the archiving of memories and lived experiences across evolving modes and mediums (from cassette tapes to texts and digital voice messages).

In the game you unlock different tapes to reveal audio tracks “recorded” by the player characters’ aunts. These tracks are a combination of music, sound design and VO that give the player a glimpse of their relationship.

The soundtrack features recorded guitar (George Pack) and vocals (Mia, George and Tam) for a more personal touch.
