About
A meteorite is about to hit the town of Greensvale—and you don’t have much time to find a way out!
You play as Sean, a boy with an untapped ability: when he dies, he can go back in time. Trapped in a time loop by the fiery destruction of a meteorite impact, you must find a way to either escape…or save the town from annihilation.
You are not alone. With the help of several other stragglers in the town, you’ll solve problems, face tough choices, and decide whether to help everyone… or just yourself.
But beware—nothing is as it seems in Greensvale. Secrets lurk around every corner, waiting to be uncovered.
So grab your red string and corkboard. It’s time to piece together the truth.

[i]"Featuring fun, logical puzzles that aren't too difficult to do, some whimsical humor and a time limit to keep you on your toes, Future Proof puts you into the shoes of a middle schooler named Sean, who is trapped in his town and is about to be incinerated by a meteor. The thing is though, he has the power to turn back time every time he dies..."[/i] In the point-and-click adventure, Future Proof, you play as a middle school kid called Sean who happens to have some time-warping powers which allows him to go back in time (for exactly 12 minutes) whenever he dies. This power comes in handy because Sean's town of Greensvale is about to be hit by a meteor the size of a football stadium, and unfortunately for him, he and a couple more people were accidentally left behind during the evacuation, and the only road to escape from the town was destroyed by a fragment from the meteor. So, what can you do to either help Sean escape from town or save everyone else who's trapped along with him from the meteor entirely? This is what you'll be able to find out as you play each of Sean's "loops" (or as I like to call them time turnbacks). [h1]Gameplay[/h1] Being a point-and-click adventure, you'll basically need to explore the town and pick stuff up as you go along. Note that everything that you can pick up (highlighted in yellow) will be used sooner or later, depending on the narrative path you're on. The game has plenty of endings for you to discover as you try to find a way to save Sean and, possibly, the entire town from destruction. So far, I'm really enjoying the puzzles in the game. They are quite straightforward in a logical kind of way and all you need to do is to be able to link up several interconnected items based on common sense. One example of a "puzzle" that requires you to explore neighboring homes for a [spoiler]plunger[/spoiler] just so you can [spoiler]unclog the toilet in another house in order to get the Toilet Key[/spoiler]. Like I said, the puzzles that I've encountered so far are really straightforward :) Will definitely be adding more stuff here as I play more loops of the game.

Very cool game about exploration and puzzles. The puzzles are varied and pretty fun. There is lots to discover.
This is a retro pixel 2D top down puzzle/adventure game set in the style of an RPG Maker retro pixel JRPG trainwreck, on purpose. The premise, which is reasonably workable, is to escape the town you are in within 12 minutes. The game will reset after those 12 minutes, a bit like Groundhog Day, only badly made and with godawful retro pixel graphics, because hiring artists is apparently something crappy indie devs refuse to do. So, on with the bad. Ugly retro 2D pixel graphics. Crappy RPG Maker style. This game looks like it was a reject from the 1990's but it was released in 2018. Simply unforgivable. No video scaling options, fixed resolution, fixed controls, all solid reasons this falls beneath the minimum standard for any PC game released in 2018. Heck, it would fail if it was released in 1998. We had better than VGA graphics back then. Why pay $4.50 for a game that was designed to look bad on purpose?
Não deixe o visual RPG Maker te enganar, o joguinho é bom. O foco é 100% na história, onde você está preso em um loop temporal e você precisa investigar a cidade para descobrir os mistérios que ela esconde (e os finais alternativos). Esse lado de você investigar e ir juntando as pistas é bem divertido. A maioria dos finais tem uma pegada de humor, mas os finais oficiais ([spoiler] 1 e 2 [/spoiler]) puxam para um lado mais sério.
A nice game with interesting puzzles, lots of discoveries, crazy-cool story, stylish humour, cute graphics, great sounds and much fun! The concept is unusual and creates quite unique gameplay. Totally didn't expect to get into it this much. Got a bit lazy and ended up looking up hints online after 6 hours, to finish off all the endings, though. P.S. Hat. All the hats.
Basically Donnie Darko meets Earthbound, with plenty of clever puzzles and multiple routes. A joy for us, 90s nostalgic. It is really a shame that such a gem has not received more attention...
Great little puzzle game. Finished in about six hours and had a lot of fun. Reminded me of Don't Touch The Button but with more story. Big Recommend :D
Hmm, an interesting concept, you pretty much care about the story right away since the consequences are so dire, the puzzles are a bit of a mix for me, some are good and interesting, some are a little odd and even when I've gotten all the information I needed, I still had to google the answer and still couldn't figure out how it all worked out; still worth a shot :)
This was a fun and detailed exploration/mystery/puzzle game. Neat story, cute art. (It only took about 8 hours of actual playtime to complete.)
Seems to function fine and I appreciate that it's basically an escape room but the ticking clock aspect is not something I seek out.
