Zeit² Launch Trailer

Have you got the TIME for another downloadable dual-joystick shooter? (This game has crazy time mechanics in it.)

Squared, even!

Ryan, this is not a dual joystick shooter. It's a left to right scrolling shooter.

I don't get it, but thanks to that trailer I now have epilepsy

I prefer "left-rightly" (or even horizontal).

This looks not fun. I don't want to play this...

looks meh, I'd rather go back to Bit.Trip Fate. At least that has better music.

Actually it is kinda fun if you like SHUMPS

I played the demo... if it's 400 points at some point in the future - I'd get it.  It isn't a tremendous side scrolling shooter... the look to me was an amalgam of a "half the enemies" R-Type that has a fetish for Tron.  The time mechanic is definitely interesting, being able to reverse time and attack a different portion of the screen as your Marty McFly clad in black goes through your earlier moves.

P.S. 
If you have a 360 and broadband you can try this gane for free , even if you are just  a free Silver  member

This looks positively Generation Eric.

There was an indie game that did this. Looks neat if not a tiny bit generic.

Was there ever a Zeit 1?

Posted by Kralle

zeit means time im so clever 

Posted by Stapler

looks like the type of game that has the "complete game without using rewind power" achievement

Posted by MikkaQ

Man, you killed the joke, you can't overexplain these things!

Yeah, you know what I would like? A new Gradius game.
Posted by DrRandle

So far I've been kind of enjoying it, actually. If they get really clever with the time stuff in later levels, this could actually be really cool.
 
Also yeah, not a dual stick. It's a Gradius type shooter with rewind potion.

Posted by HyperionX3

I agree. I'd rather have a new Gradius. Not bad though.

Shiny. Probably not my kind of game but it definitely looks interesting. Some of the bad guy ship designs remind me of the tribal art in The World Ends With You.

Braid meets Ikaruga? FAIL!

Damn period is too close to space n this.phone.

braid+ shooter= zeit^2

Posted by Xpgamer7

no.

Posted by suicidepacmen

For everyone comparing it to Braid, it's not.  The time mechanics are much more derived from P.J. Winterbottom.  Seriously.

Having the trailer refer to the aliens as scum is so fucking rude.

Posted by Branthog

I'm kind of over the whole psychedelic retro style.
