comments for There Was Time Now

I forget where I played this game before. I liked it, but it was short.

Just beat the game in about an hour with 152 days left on the clock and really loved it! great work!

Managed with 173 days left.
Good thing you can hold enter when selling stuff and bribing people, made things much easier.
But who the hell am I selling loose packets of astronomy to? And why are they buying in bulk?

cool short game i had fun with the story

managed to speed through this one with 190 days to spare.. I'm not sure if anyone could do 200 days and if they would I'd be amazed. It'd be nice to have a difficulty scale going from easy which is default (1 year?) to medium which is 7 months to work which is 210 (or 213 if you like to add real life months) days and ending with 155 days left from one year, hard which is 6 months to work, 180 (183) days which would leave 185 days this would take most players second playthrough and insane for just 5 months and 10 days to work, 200 days left on the clock.

my favorite 'finish-in-an-afternoon' game in a while, if not ever
I like the theming, the UI looks really nice, and the play style is fun with a good plot

Really nice and well-polished game! I loved playing through it. However, I feel like the budget mechanic was underused; maybe some research could require it, making the game more complex and interesting, especially when it becomes easier to attain.

I wish I could rate this 5 stars but the way that things slow down towards the end left a sour taste in my mouth. I understand that this game was made for a jam, though, so I want to say that this is a great concept which is visually pleasing and extremely impressive for the time in which it was made.

TWTN I love it

I am in 1984 but this is 2024

beat the game with 207 days left and I have a army of 2524 undergrads working on physics now

woah no reviews

This was a super entertaining game! I would be thrilled to see a much longer version (and would be willing to pay for it too!)

I MANAGED TO BEAT IT LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

This definitely has potential to be expanded upon and make it to be a great game. Currently it's a nice little game but i can see a lot of potential in this one.

i don't know what i'm doing, but the story is funny

I BEAT IT YEAHHH

Knocked it out of the park again! The sense of racing against time and frustration with lazy students (the generators) made this superb.

"your quantum reality has skewed into a tangent" what the fuck does that mean

i didnt notice the timer at the top right at all. alamost failed because of it
