About

This 'time machine' takes you where others won't.

What is this?

This VR game is a time machine, but you don't get to choose where you go. When you pull the lever it takes you somewhere random.

You get a date telling you where you are in time and the doors open. There's no way of predicting where you'll end up. You can't leave the time machine - you can stick your head out, but be warned sometimes you might not want to.

Where do I go?

You might end up somewhere significant or you might end up somewhere totally ordinary.

If you don't like where you are then you pull the lever again.

Controls

The game takes place in a single 2x3m room. You can use teleport and smooth locomotion to move around in the space if you would like to play sitting down. Its best played roomscale.

Have fun!
