Time
Flipper

Time Flipper is a surreal adventure where you search the world to find people abducted by aliens. The twist is that you can switch between two time periods, past and future, to get to unreachable parts of the world and rescue the inhabitants. It stands out not only for this time travelling but for how you build a procession of rescuees by persuading them they need help.

As you find the missing people on each level, they are oblivious to their abduction and you need to convince them of their plight, so they follow you. You then need to clear a path for them to get back home using your time-flipping powers to overcome obstacles. You can also find weapons for them so they can protect you from the aliens trying to halt your progress. As you progress it becomes a traversal challenge where your time-flip ability is essential to find hidden passages, items and more missing people.

The result is an action-oriented puzzle, where the world invites exploration with ever more time-travelling surprises. This is all accompanied by a dynamic soundtrack that changes depending on the world’s state. As you poke into every corner of the world you can find hidden relics and add them to your book.
