"Surely you know that just as the momentous events of the past cast their shadows down the ages, so now, when the sun is drawing toward the dark, our own shadows race into the past to trouble mankind's dreams."

- Gene Wolfe

You are hired to keep the timeline on its course, or reality itself will crumble. Bring things from the future and plant them in the past - and watch how the future changes. Split the timeline to create divergent timelines, and bring elements from one timeline to another in order to architect reality's survival.

In Time Office - you do not control the Hero. You merely get photos of him at different times. You can add and remove elements from photos in order to affect his future. From a single root, the endless tree of time expands - how will you trim its less savory branches? How will you steer its growth to achieve your goals?

Made in 72 (well, 48) hours for Game Zanga - Special Edition - with care and toil and a lot of love.

i wanted to test your game bu unfortuntally the files you upload missing some dll files including neko.dll, try to upload the game with all dependences so devices that don't have the tools you are using installed can run the game
