Description
Chronology is a puzzle-platform adventure where the player defies time by manipulating the past and the future, in order to fix the present. Play as the Old Inventor and his sidekick The Snail, and take advantage of their special abilities - travel back and forth in time, stop time, manipulate objects and solve puzzles.
History
The game has been in development first in the hands of Progressive Media, a work-for-hire studio, and then in the hands of Osao games. Unfortunately, both studios had to close its doors, so from that moment, Bedtime Digital Games, a game studio based in Aalborg, Denmark, had to bring the game back to life.
Features
- Time changes everything - Solve puzzle by travelling back and forth in - or freezing - time.
- Characters with heart and soul - Switch between two lovable characters with different abilities and combine their strengths.
- A mind-bending story line. As the story unfolds, learn how the main character has already played a central role in shaping the future of his world.
- Fully voice acted in English.
- A magical, colourful, vibrant and living universe that mixes elements from different times and cultures.
- Amazingly animated characters, machines and creatures, inspired by Hayao Miyazaki (Howls Moving Castle, My Friend Totoro).
- Full game controller support (Xbox controller for PC, MFi game controllers for iOS).
