Game description
A time traveling puzzle game, where you discover the truth behind your grandfather's mysterious arrest!

Theme interpretation
We leveraged the time travel mechanic to turn components of each puzzle into scattered "secrets", while maintaining a storyline that resolves in the end with one central secret being revealed.

The Game is interesting with its puzzles, but it’s a pity that it’s short)

Nice work! Our submissions have similar mechanics in some ways (flipping between "views" of the level)

I absolutely loved the retro visuals, and the time travel mechanic was such an innovative twist for a puzzle game! I think I managed to read all the books before accidentally breaking the game by triggering time travel at the wrong moment, which forced me to restart 😭. Despite that, I really enjoyed the experience. Fantastic work!

Cute game! the story is funny, the pictures of grandpa (especially the one upside down in the beginning) i also found funny. I always love games with time tracel mechanics, so bonus points for that ! The puzzles were nice and intuitive for the most part, but I couldn't find the last digit and resorted to the walkthrough in your description ( i couldn't find the key in the library). Also the "books" in the library were quite funny hehe.

I couldn't find a way to get to this key?? And I'm not even sure what it would open. Is this a secret that i missed?

I do have to say it was hard to see in front of me when I picked up the paintings. The art style generally was nice, loved the cutscenes. The music was cute and relaxing. 

Grandpa deserves jail for abusing his power :)

Keep up the great work!

Thanks for checking it out, I'm glad we added the walkthrough!

That key is for the bedroom closet door and is only obtainable in the "present" (on the ground next to the fallen shelf) but even after you pick it up it's still in the "past", which we would have changed if we had some more time :)

The mechanics and game idea is really nice, I loved the lighting effects.
