This game is finished, I'm just looking for testers to catch any little bugs I've missed. Other sorts of feedback are of course also appreciated, even if they don't make it into this game they'll help me improve in general.

That Dr Fang thinks she's so special just because she solved global warming and never blew up any of Switzerland. But now you have a time machine and soon, soon they will ALL PAY.

A humourous visual novel. Choose your own gender, choose your own ending, choose your own path to GLORY! (or death. But hopefully glory)

EDIT: I added music and some other changes, here's the thread for the completed version.

There is also a much buggier Twine version I'd love to get testers for since I ran out of testing energy by the time I finished it, but I realise that's not really what these forums are for. Converting a Renpy game to Twine is PAIN AND SUFFERING, by the way, I'm not doing that again.

Whee, I love time-travelling games! I can't believe no one else has played this yet, it's awesome!! I love the scientist characters through time, and how the way you save the world gradually unfolds through trial and error.

I found two typos:
"that's just rest" -> "that just reset"
"it's genesis" -> "its genesis"

If you could add some music, that would make it even better, but that's the only advice I have.

It sort of reminded me of the book "Meanwhile" by Jason Shiga; check it out if you haven't already read it. :-)

Thanks for the really fun game!

Thanks heaps! Though I'm really sorry I forgot to include a link to the complete game in this thread, I did end up adding music (and extra plot/dialogue) in the end: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewto ... 11&t=24221

Though I think I didn't notice those typos oops /o\

EDIT: And yes, I've read Meanwhile and loved it, I'm really flattered for my work to be compared to it, thanks!
