Protect the past, save the future.
TimeCluster is a first person VR shooter. In each mission you are sent back in time to protect villagers in a medieval town where the Order of the Grand Eulidians is born. In the future they govern over the known galaxy. An alien race is bent on preventing their creation.
Mission Objectives
Locate friendly villagers, place shields around them, place markers at strategic locations, locate enemy portals, replenish villagers' shields as they are attacked by aliens and once all aliens have been eliminated and the required number of villagers are left alive your mission is successful.
Enemies arrive in waves and each mission contains a set number of waves.
Mission failures occur when your shield drops to zero or the number of villagers left alive is less than the mission requirements.
