Super Time Force! - Or WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME ABOUT THIS BEFORE!

[Doc ock rokc]

I am so angry/happy with everything right now I could cry.

SERIOUSLY, LOOK AT THIS



This is my dream game. The game I have been wanting to play since forever! The game I always wanted to make! Why have I not heard about it before today!

I mean, Its glorious. The concept of the game is simple. Make the world more radical via Time Travel.

How do you do that? Shooting EVERYTHING.

The game starts out as a modified contra/metal slug clone. Your a lone soldier with a gun against an army. But then it starts getting interesting. At any time you can "Time out" and swap to another character who has various special abilities. Allowing for some Metroidvanian elements.

Now, Pay attention: this is about to get complicated. When you Time Out you can travel BACK IN TIME and Reappear alongside your past self. Your past self then does everything you have already done while you play around him. If you die (which you will a lot thanks to you being a One Hit Wonder) You can go back in time and SAVE YOURSELF Turning your past self into a Powerup. This power up ether grants you DOUBLE fire power in your special ability or grants another's ability on top of your own!

Now he comes the kicker. Every level is timed. You have to complete every level in ~60 seconds. You can't just run and gun ether. You have to call on your teammates/past selves to do enough damage to the bosses/minibosses in time. And don't think you can just jump back all willy nilly. You have a limited number of "Time Outs" that you can use.

This along side some interesting twists to cliche Shooter challenges makes this game so god damned glorious.

Then their is the story. Which I swear was written by a drunk man and a ten year old from the 80s/early 90s. It is filled with the most hilariously stupid things complicated by time travel and all its mind bending qualities.

It's currently out on the Xboxes (xboxi?) at the moment but is said to come out on steam and possibly itunes soon.

I have been ready to be hyped about this since today. When it comes out on steam I'll have been ready to dump an absurd amount of time into it.
