Very novel concept, you go back in time and create a new version of yourself to live the 'past' with your other selves to solve puzzles. Pretty well-thought out little levels, you need to apply some logic and get ready to smash your keyboard to bits. Stuck on a time-travel causation 'Paradox' on Level 13....

Title: Re: Strange annoying addictive Time Waster Post by: TightPaulFolds on August 27, 2010, 10:14:44 AM sigh, knew I'd regret clicking the link. gg next few days lol yeah sorry man :D It gets better and better, some sick rubdowns, and it's quite educational/thought-provoking (honest): -can you go back and change the past without creating any critical paradox? -can you go back in time and 'kill your grandfather'? -can you only go back in time to when they have invented time machines? This is why no one has come back to us. -you can freeze time at certain points, but it won't affect the lasers because of Special Relativity lol (speed of light is constant) -'Past' 'Present' and 'Future' are just labels, in Physics there is no 'preferred frame' -A way of reconciling causality/determinism with human choice/freewill is to posit that at any given time we split off into different 'self-pathways' and live our lives in a million different directions each branching into a million more, you just happen to be inhabiting this particular one. If that sounds ridic then try fitting freewill into a deterministic linear universe. What causes your choices? If they were caused they are not free choices. Hopefully by reflecting on all of these issues we can feel better about the 3 days we will lose to this ******** game :D |
