You decide to continue accelerating time's flow, just to see what happens. As you twist the knob, you start thinking about the second law of thermodynamics, which says that more and more thermal energy will become useless until the universe goes cold. At least, that's how you understand it from half-watching an astrophysics show when you were twelve, and recently reading the beginning paragraph of the thermodynamic law's wikipedia page. Oh, if you could figure out how to break that law, all life in the universe will be saved. You'll be the greatest figure in history! But how can you stop it? You think of many possibilities which you aren't sure would actually work because your knowledge of the second law is very limited. This train of thought is interrupted when someone bursts through the door. In the blink of an eye, you're lying down in the opposite corner of the office while the flow of time slows down until it's back to normal. A muscular bearded guy with an assault rifle had grabbed you and thrown you away from the time manipulator. He then started twisting the knob leftwards to make the time flow normal. Now your ribs hurt. You turn your head towards the door to see a similar guy with a smaller beard enter the room.

In reality, the machine can make time go backwards, and you had managed to make it do that, but you weren't immune to the machine's effects on time's flow. As time went backwards, you started going through your past in reverse. Even your mind and your thoughts went in reverse, causing you to forget information. As you started going backward, you switched the machine back to forwards, causing time to flow normally. Since your mind went in reverse as well, you didn't realize what happened when you switched the machine to backward, so you switch it backwards a second time. This meant that you were in a stable loop that repeated for a very long time, until the time machine's switch eventually wore out. Due to the time flow's effects on your perception, you don't even realize that this is happened. All you know is that the machine failed to make time go backwards.

But wouldn't turning time backwards also reverse the wear on the time machine's switch? Or is the time machine immune to the effects of traveling through time?

The machine doesn't experience time the same way that we do. Now, I have a question for you. What do you think our main character should do to survive being in the same room as two armed hostile men who clearly don't like that he's been ♥♥♥♥ with time?

Ignore the armed hostile men and focus all your efforts on slipping a hastily scrawled note written in your own blood on the back of a photo of roast beef warning against using the time machine and offer a suggestion of simply asking the helicopter for a ride to the ground instead as close as possible to the machine in the hope that, just as the machine is unaffected by time alteration, so too will any objects affixed directly to its surface.

Try and take out the men, but do it each time while close to the manipulator, each time you fail, crawl over and reverse time to the beginning of the fight. Repeat until you win.

♥♥♥♥ me I need to put more effort in updating this game. No more saying, "Eh, I'll do it later."

GrandPiano wrote:Insult the men.


You sit up and tell the man who threw you to go ♥♥♥♥ himself, and that you were doing just fine until his stupid ♥♥♥ burst in and ruined your ♥♥♥♥ shenanigans. You then look at the other guy and call him a ♥♥♥♥. The guy with the smaller beard proceeds to kick you in the ribs, causing you to fall back to the floor. He then says, "I can't believe a pantsless dumbass like you could have risked screwing us over." He turns to the other guy and says, "You'd better destroy that machine, before someone uses it to reverse time."

As previously stated, the machine can't reverse time, but you've still got a chance if you attack the smaller-bearded dude while he's looking at his buddy. You jump to your feet and throw your fist at the man's face as hard as you can.

CRACK

♥♥♥♥ YOU'RE FIST'S BROKEN. ♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥. To make matters worse, the guy by the time machine points his gun at you and shoots a few rounds in your torso. The force of the shots push you back a few steps, and then you drop to your knees.

You are now filled with regret towards your decisions, You want to go back. If you can somehow send a message to your past self, to try to hitch a ride on the helicopter, then this wouldn't happen. That time machine... perhaps objects that are close enough to it will be sucked through a wormhole towards the past. You don't know for sure, since you didn't read the tl;dr explanation for why the time machine couldn't send you back in time, but it's the only chance you've got. You grab one of the photos and quickly scrawl a message on the back of it with your own blood. As you do this, the small bearded man approaches you, while the large bearded man points his gun at the machine. With no time to waste, you slide the paper across the floor as hard as possible, causing the photo to fly up into the air and towards the time machine.

Now, let me regale you with more info about the time machine. It exists across every point in time all at once. If you turn the knob right a few notches, then its past self will also have its knob turned a few notches. This explanation has probably caused several plot holes to appear in this game's story, but ♥♥♥♥ it, I can just say "lol 4th dimension, your argument is invalid". The reason I decided to include this explanation because, despite what Venexis is thinking, objects touching the time machine don't undergo weird time properties that causes them to appear in the past. But, if something were to get inside the time machine's case, it would become a part of the machine, allowing it to exist across all points in time. And, as luck would have it, that photo you launched towards the time machine got stuck in a gap in the machine's casing.


MEANWHILE, EARLIER THAT NIGHT

You assume that when the voice in your head said "slightly broken panel", they meant the vent in the corner of the room. You get on your knees and try to remove the cover. It swings open like a cabinet, revealing a digital clock that's been embedded in the wall. Above the digital display is some text that says, "Time Manipulator", and below the display are the clock's controls. There is a switch with two settings: backwards, and forwards. Right now, the switch is on forwards. There is also a knob with some text next to it that says, "Speed Up/Slow Down". Lastly, there is a piece of paper stuck in a gap in the device's casing. Curious, you pull it out to find a message hastily scrawled in blood. The handwriting is very poor, so you have trouble reading it. From what you can tell, it says, "Fut. mess.: No manip. Hitch on heli." The ♥♥♥♥ does that mean?

Well, fut.mess. means either the future is a mess, or this is a message from the future, but No manip. is clear enough (especially since the message seems to be written in blood). Let's not mess with the time machine just yet and see if there is anything else we can do. Is there anything in the room that we can take apart to be able to BUILD something to get to the ceiling?

Not really, unless you can somehow rip chunks out of the wall and stack them. Maybe you should follow the note's suggestion to hitch a ride on the helicopter, but you're not sure if the pilot is friendly. Should you try it? If not, what else can you do?

Yeah I think the presence of a blood-written note would be enough motivation to GTFO, lawl, regardless what it said. At the very least some potentially unstable individual apparently decided that no other fluid would work as ink and that suggests there might be a lot more unsettling surprises around.
