This is the free Chapter 0 to Time Survivors, a rogue-like bullet hell game where you can play as legendary historical characters like Abe Lincoln, Tesla, Cleopatra, and more, each now wielding unique custom abilities that revolutionize gameplay.

Transform into a flying ninja robot as Oda Nobunaga, create defensive barriers made of cherry trees as Abe Lincoln, or set the battlefield ablaze as Nero - the choice is yours. Each character brings a unique touch to every run, making each playthrough a unique adventure.
Travel through time and fight hordes of memorable enemies as you unravel a mystery. With over 150 different weapons, items, Relics, and buffs to choose from, every run is a unique experience. Fight skeletons in the Medieval Age, Velociraptors and T-Rexes in the Stone Age, and discover plenty of quests and secrets along the way.

But that's not all - Time Survivors: Chapter 0 presents a new meta progression system, allowing you to unlock and upgrade characters, weapons, and stages, even game mode modifiers, using gold and resources collected during your runs. Tailor your progression to your preferred playstyle and strategically allocate resources to create your own game-breaking build.
