Keep Your Memory
Have you ever forgotten something? The answer is probably yes because the time erases memories from our head. Sometimes it is good to forget. Sometimes it is healthy.
But not if you are the memory time wants to erase. In this game you have to do everything to not become forgotten!
Everything takes place in a surreal environment where a clock is spawning time bombs. They are coming for you with one simple goal: to blow you up!
Those bombs have some special abilities which turns them into a serious problem for you:
- They can go through clock hands. So you can’t hide behind them
- They are immune against explosion damage
- They are constantly spawning
- Their health increases with every level
Fortunately you can fight back. The Memory Is able to charge a shot. The longer you charge the more efficient the shot will be. Your bullet is also able to hit more than just one bomb. But with every bounce it will loose half of its power.
Also be aware of that you move slower while charging.
Your attack has one downside. You have to think of the recoil!
HINT: Bombs start with 10LP. You can charge your attack to deal 20 damage. In order to kill bombs with one single shot you have to charge your attack at least half of the possible time. With every level increase bombs will get another 2LP on top.
The controls:
WASD / Arrow-Keys: Move
Left Mouse: Fire (hold for charging)
[ESC] / [P]: Pause
The intro can become skipped with any key. But you first have to watch it once.

Because the game is very hard I've recorded a video of my gameplay. I hope that helps some of you to survive longer :-)

The art is amazing, but the game is insanely hard(or I'm horrible at aming), because I couldn't kill any bombs. The game is also very fitting for the theme. And also if you have TIME, please check out our game for the jam, if time bombs don't erease your memories ;). https://thenerdpoint60.itch.io/stuck-in-the-cassette
Hi. Thanks for your response :-).
Yes - the game is very hard. But if you haven't killed any bomb then I guess you might haven't charged your attack enough. Without charging an attack makes one damage and is very slow. You can charge this up to 20 damage and very fast. The bombs on start have 10LP.
So may give it a retry with longer charging - then you also have more time for aiming. I hope that helps :-)
Ofc I play your game as well - comment will follow :-)
