You are Reginald Vortex, the time-travelling robot on a mission to stop the evil(?) plans of the Future Co's velociraptor cloning division. But, killing is really fun, so honestly just slaughter as many cyborg soldiers and velociraptors as you can. The more you kill, the more they spawn, making it more dangerous, and the use of positioning yourself using the time-travel becomes increasingly necessary.
At the push of a button, you are transported to the same area in the future/past. Use this power against your enemies to launch deadly ambushes, disappearing and reappearing in an eyeblink.
Instructions:
Arrow keys: Move and jump
Z: Short range plasma blade attack
X: Time travel (toggle between future and past)
Your health is denoted by your energy colour. Each hit changes the colour: Green, then amber, then red, then GAME OVER. Get as many kills as you can before this happens.
You will regenerate health automatically by avoiding damage.
