Timeline Chaos

World ID: 10231158779333279

Outplay your past. Rewrite your future. Control the timelines.

Timeline Chaos is a fast-paced 1v1 pvp time-loop strategy game where every move players make is repeated by clones in the next timeline. Battle across a hex map, capture towers, protect your old selves, and outsmart your opponent in next level tactical combat.

Inspiration

We're all major sci-fi fans in our team and time travel or the multiverse is a frequent conversation topic among us. We love movies and shows that address this subject like Dr. Who, Dark Matter, They Cloned Tyrone, 12 Monkeys, Edge of Tomorrow etc. And although it's a pretty hard subject to tackle in game design, we took on the challenge!

How it works

You play through 4 timelines, each 60 seconds long. Each move you make gets recorded and will be repeated by your clone in the next timeline. Tap to move, attack, shield, and capture towers while accounting for both your enemy and past versions of you and them. This all leads to insane time-loop battles, wild paradoxes, and galaxy-brain plays.

If you die there’s always the next timeline to shield your past self from an attack and save them. And when you die you also become a ghost and can still perform actions until the end of the timeline. Save your clone from dying and the actions you took in ghost mode become reality in the present timeline. Each new timeline must account for everything that happened before.

Simple rules. Deep strategy

Timeline Chaos takes real-time strategy and twists it through a time loop. You’re navigating a hex-grid battlefield where controlling three towers is the key to victory. But the real mind game? Your opponent is predicting your moves… while you’re predicting their predictions… Expect wild paradox saves, chain reactions, ghost-mode reversals, and those perfect galaxy-brain moments where you outsmart two timelines at once.

We designed the game so newcomers can jump in instantly, but masters can spend hundreds of hours crafting new time-loop tactics. Each timeline adds complexity, tension, and the thrill of outmaneuvering both your opponent and yourself. And because every match is just a few minutes long, Timeline Chaos is incredibly replayable, easy to learn, hard to stop thinking about.

Features:

• Tap to Move and perform actions

• 1v1 PvP real-time (past and future) strategy

• Clones that repeat your past actions

• Tower capture win condition (3 towers total)

• Hex-based tactical movement

• 4 timelines per game

• Fast 60-second rounds (timelines), quick matches, high replayability

• Time manipulation gameplay (paradox saves, ghost mode)

Timeline Chaos rewards creativity, foresight, and that thrill of pulling off a strategy that no one, not even your past self, saw coming. If you love strategy, brain games, time loops, or outsmarting other players, this is your arena. Think faster than your past. Fight smarter than your opponent.

Challenges we ran into

Time travel and time paradoxes are hard to explain in real life, so you can imagine that creating a tutorial and gameplay that makes sense and can be easily picked up was quite a challenge. There's still room for improvement here but we did our best.
