About the Game

This world's time is inexorably running out, and with each day it grows more unstable. Thus, the Keeper of Time decides to take extreme measures and summon a savior from another world.  However... Things didn't go entirely according to plan. Instead of one, two answered the call – you and a little bat named Nox. And now the two of you must journey across the entire world to deliver the time to the one who can fix everything. Though, it's all much more complicated than it seems at first glance...

The fate of the entire world rests solely on your shoulders. Will it be saved, or will it be lost forever in timelessness? And most importantly, will Nox be able to return home? After all, he was dragged into this completely by accident.

You are about to embark on an astonishing journey through a dying world. Every decision carries a price. To save this world's Time from disappearing completely might prove impossible. At the very least, it won't be as straightforward as it first seemed.

Warning

This game breaks the fourth wall and contains metagaming elements. At certain points, you will need to perform tasks not within the game world, but on your own computer. Some messages will also be delivered through your computer's system.

If this concerns or unsettles you, it is better to refrain from playing.

Features

  • Complete disregard for the fourth wall: You are just the person sitting before the screen

  • Necessity to interact with your computer's system

  • A richly crafted world with its own history, humor, and dramas

  • Atmospheric ambience and dialogue

  • Plenty of secrets and easter eggs

Current Development Status

The game is currently in active development. All gameplay completed to date is available in the demo version, which will be updated as development progresses.

This is my first project. I would be overjoyed if you enjoy it.
