Achron - Pre orders opened

iviv · 12 Jan 2010 at 15:41

I posted about this game back in April and it got pretty much ignored, so I'm here to bump what should be an awesome game. Instead of your usual RTS, the game deals with Time Travel, in a big way. Its a little too complex for me to explain, so I'll link to RPS singing its praises instead. I'm off to pre-order it, since that allows access to the current build of the game. Its nowhere near finished, but its easily the most unique RTS since... well, probably ever!

If they could pull this off then it would be absolutely amazing.

You can only go back in time so far, and the time wave system they have come up with should prevent games going on forever. Plus, you can only perform so many actions in the past, since you have a limited supply of chrono energy. Performing actions uses it up, so you couldn't plan a detailed all out attack in the past.

Or you could, if you keep jumping back and forward in time.

If someone attacked and destroyed me in the past.

I would not be best pleased.

So you go back further in time and destroy them before they destroyed you!
