Motion Paradox

An entry for LOWREZJAM2024, made within the last 72 hours of the jam.

Post-jam version is now available for Windows, Linux, and macOS. The web version allows you to choose between the original version and post-jam version, bundled using Jampack by badcop.

NOTE FOR WEB PLAYERS

The post-jam version on the web has an audio issue where certain sound effects are muffled and distorted. This is because Unity's WebGL uses different audio compression methods compared to other platforms and has imitations in how it handles and processes audio playback.

Currently I'm still looking for a solution for this issue. So for the time being, I highly recommend you to download the corresponding zip file for your platform instead for the best experience.

DESCRIPTION

Dr. Emit, an ambitious time traveler, accidentally enters an unstable dimension when he was working on his new invention with his assistant at the lab. He then discovers that time flows only when he's standing still. 

Armed with his trusty steampunk-style rifle, he must repel those strange flying gears and survive until the time portal activates, allowing him to restore the integrity of time and return home. But he must be careful not to shoot himself in the foot as his own bullets are not so friendly due to the unstable flow of time.
