About Time
A downloadable game for Windows
Langoliers meet Serious Sam, with science.
About Time is first-person sci-fi exploreACTION game about responsibility, time experiments and dealing with their consequences.
You play as a talented, but irresponsible physicist. Due to a failure experiment you are stuck in frozen time, in your home lab at your family farmhouse. You have just 3 hours until the surrounding space-time collapses and you, as well as the fractured world around you, will cease to exist.
Defend yourself and the lab equipment from hostile waves of Time Keepers. Craft upgrades for your weapons and useful scientific stuff. And finally – fix the Temporal Reactor to get the time running again and escape the endless death-and-rebirth cycle.
It’s about time!
