Every aspect of this game (code, art, music, sound, and writing) was created from scratch in 72 hours.

Vega did not wake up on the morning of December 8th expecting to be zapped into the past by a notorious supervillain with a time ray gun, but sometimes life hits you with circumstances outside of your control. Like a supervillain's time ray.

Help guide her text-based adventure through a time loop as she makes strange allies, gathers information about the mysterious Doctor Scramble, and tries to save the world.

Amazing soundtrack as usual, @miyolophone! Loved it!

Art is pretty good too.

The story is really rich, but a bit too long. I feel like it would be more fun to have different shorter branches and endings instead. I didn't understand what's the point behind the inventory, never had a chance to use any item. But maybe it's just me.

Overall, great entry!

This was pleasant to play. There was the classic RPG problem of (unintended?) dialogue loops, but the interface was awesome and minimalistic, the art was very easy on the eyes, and the music was great. Very... quirky... writing.

Good story, cool art for the short time (especially with that number of places and characters) and an impressive soundtrack. Good job :thumbsup:

No, I have no idea what you're saying, did you shit your t-shirt?!

Sorry just had to throw that in there, I really REALLY loved this game altough it is for the most part more a story than a game it was really well written and altough there weren't that many the illustrations they were very nice!

the only downside would be that there is no sound, not that I can say much - my last two games were completely silent...

LOVED IT!

@crazybot Hey, thank you so much for playing & giving feedback! Just a note - there actually is audio (from the third cinematic onwards), although you might have to refresh your page or play it in a different browser to hear it (Chrome is very particular about auto-playing sound).

I really liked the art, and had fun voicing out all the lines to my friends. Nice work on the story! Really well done all around.

@fawnblue I can't seem to hear it on firefox... either way, I adjusted my rating in that category knowing there is sound I just can't hear it.

I'm a big fan of time travel stories, this one was really fun to play/read. I know it probably wasn't intended but thanks for letting me drink my frilly strawberry drink after the "THE END" :) (I totally forgot it was in the inventory until then)

Just wow! I didn't expect so much when I started playing! The music is fantastic, the humour is great, the UI design is pretty slick, it's honestly such a cool entry! As a french person, the whole french bit was extra funny to witness. You mention background art but I haven't seen any background??? Could it be a bug? Congratulations!

That was a lot of fun! The humour was quirky and really drove the story. I enjoyed the feeling of progression each loop with the extra "knowledge" you gain. The engine itself was pretty cool, with the text effects and portraits.

Towards the end it got a bit less game-y and a bit more of a "story" - could have been nice to have a bit more gameplay. In any case, nice job!
