Chrnotron (this one is good)
http://armorgames.com/play/1567/chronotron
Its a game where you have a time machine that lets you travel to the past as many times as you want and team-work with you to accomplish the goal. The game is as logic as time-travel allows a game to be as, for example, for you to win not only you must get back to the time-machine with the chips, but also all the other you and, since they merely reproduce the commands you gave then then you controlled then, if they dont manage to get back to the time machine with those commands or if they die somewhere along the way a paradox is created and you must start over. It gets really complicated on later levels... there was one where I had to team-work with seven me :)

Hmm,
Twice now one my my selfs hasnt done exactly what I did - but since you can't 'bump' youself I think it must be a bug. Too frustrating

Re: Chrnotron (this one is good)
Yes it seens that there is a bug that will make you disobey you sometimes. But its quite rare, and has happened only once with me.
Re: Chrnotron (this one is good)
Fun, but something I just found makes me angry and sad. It doesn't record actions, but keypresses, leading to the very unfun situation of placing a block where a past self would have placed it, and having him pick it up instead of using it to jump.
Re: Chrnotron (this one is good)
Got to lvl 24 so far. its pretty hard at times. great game tho.
Re: Chrnotron (this one is good)
Thats anyoing too. I think this game would be better if it worked by we giving orders and the bot doing then automatically... like: If I order the robot to get a specific crate, he pathfinds to that crate and gets it even if it is not in the same place as before.lurker wrote:Fun, but something I just found makes me angry and sad.

Edit: Just closed the game. Bonus levels are normal, there wasnt really a reason to not put then in game :)

I got to like level 31, at which point the level was literally too buggy to figure out what I was supposed to do, so I quit.
Re: Chrnotron (this one is good)
Well its indeed bug :) But its not that hard. Just throw the boxes in the hole so you can get out.SwiftSpear wrote:I got to like level 31, at which point the level was literally too buggy to figure out what I was supposed to do, so I quit.
Re: Chrnotron (this one is good)
I beat level 2 in 5 seconds and that's where I got bored with it
Re: Chrnotron (this one is good)
You should have played longer. It gets very hard and very cool later on.

That's really cool. It's like The Lost Vikings in.. umm... three dimensions (X, Y and Time).
