And with that we are another year closer to the eagerly anticipated cooling of all matter. You may have read that the concept of weeks, months and years is the culmination of humanity’s collective understanding of a complicated astronomical pattern. It's an interesting take. However, the correct hypothesis was posited by your stoner housemate Jed from university. “Time is, like, a construct,” he said, with the deep wisdom and clarity only three tins of San Miguel can deliver. “The Chinese have a totally different calendar, y’know. Do you want to order takeaway?”

So let’s chronicle games about time, specifically those that prove the passing of years is nothing but a directionless tumble through the jelly-like substance of spacetime. Here are 9 games about time travel. But which of them would you undo?

It has happened. The day spoken of in legend. After two years, I am finally to be set free of the Curse Of Steam Charts. All its taken is entirely leaving my job in four days time to end this purgatory. The only decision left is to whom I shall pass this vexation. That, and how to avoid mentioning the actual games for one more week. And this time I've come up with a self-indulgent doozy.

Halloween 2018 Special: Some lovely games!https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/halloween-2018-special-some-lovely-gamesJohn WalkerWed, 31 Oct 2018 15:00:20 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/halloween-2018-special-some-lovely-gamesAlphabear: Hardcover EditionHidden FolksGNOGChuchelPuzzleFeatureBlockbusterDay Of The Tentacle RemasteredRimeIndieMinitAerHalloween 2018ProteusOneShot

Video games, you may have noticed, are often a little bit horrid. All sorts of naughtiness, and a distinct lack of people just being kind to one another. What are we like?! But fortunately there are games that make an exception to the potty-mouthed meanies that dominate, and today I celebrate them and their cuteness with a collection of lovely screenshots.

Day of the Devs, for those not in the know, is an event in San Francisco that lets fans meet and talk shop with a bunch of game developers in what usually becomes one big celebration of various nerdoms. This year's event is taking place on Saturday, 11th November and Humble is celebrating the occasion with a big ol' Day of the Devs 2017 themed bundle which offers up to $131 worth of games for $9.

In this bundle, you'll find a handful of point and click classics in their remastered forms, along with some absolute gems of newer indie titles. If you happen to spend $9 (around £6.83) or more, you'll even get a VIP ticket to the Day of the Devs event itself, if you can make it there. As an added bonus, Humble Monthly subscribers will also get $2 thrown into their Humble wallet to spend at a later date.

Wot I Think: Day Of The Tentacle Remasteredhttps://www.rockpapershotgun.com/day-of-the-tentacle-remastered-reviewJohn WalkerMon, 21 Mar 2016 12:00:46 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/day-of-the-tentacle-remastered-reviewAction AdventureReviewsDouble Fine ProductionsFeatureDay Of The Tentacle RemasteredWot I ThinkLucasArtsDay of the Tentacle

It’s frightening to realise that Day Of The Tentacle Remastered [official site] is a reworking of a game that's been in my top five games since I first played it, a whopping 23 years ago. And a game that for the better part of the last decade, has been near impossible to buy or play. With Double Fine’s Remaster updating or restoring its graphics, music and sound, at the very minimum what we have here is a purchasable, playable version of the original game. On top of that, you can now play it in wide- and full-screen, with a smartly reimagined interface, much improved music, and the voices crystal clear without all the hissing and bubbly weirdness that affected the original CD-ROM version of the game. Which is to say, if anyone doesn’t like any of the changes they’ve made, they can switch them off and they’ve absolutely nothing to complain about. Which is neat. Here's wot I think:

Day of the Tentacle Remastered [official site], the redrawn (or not) re-release of the classic 1993 LucasArts adventure game, will come out on March 22nd. That's the latest word from Double Fine Productions, the folks who are revamping it (and whose head honch Tim Schafer co-directed, co-designed, and co-wrote all those years ago). It's been a good few years since I played DotT, so I'm curious to revisit it.

In a Double Fine double-bill, look, it's the first trailer for Day of the Tentacle Remastered [official site]! Yes, yes, the main feature of Double Fine's weekend announcements was Full Throttle Remastered, but that's not due until 2017. DotT Remastered, however, will be coming in March 2016, sez this trailer. Here, check out how the redrawn art looks in motion:

First Day Of The Tentacle Remastered Screenshots Appear - Compare And Contrasthttps://www.rockpapershotgun.com/first-day-of-the-tentacle-remastered-screenshots-appear-compare-and-contrastJohn WalkerSat, 24 Oct 2015 08:14:37 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/first-day-of-the-tentacle-remastered-screenshots-appear-compare-and-contrastAction AdventureDay of the TentacleDay Of The Tentacle RemasteredDouble Fine Productions

Polygon has just posted the first screenshots of Double Fine's remake of Day Of The Tentacle, a project announced almost a year ago, and now apparently playable at Indiecade. The shots show the remastering is clearly going to be very faithful to the original game - fears of attempts at 3D or similar can be put aside - although give no indication at this point if the verb interface is to be maintained. Indiecade visitors will be able to tell us soon.

However, to my eye, something doesn't look quite right.

Triple Fine: Day Of The Tentacle Special Edition Announcedhttps://www.rockpapershotgun.com/day-of-the-tentacle-special-editionAlice O'ConnorMon, 08 Dec 2014 20:00:12 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/day-of-the-tentacle-special-editionDouble Fine ProductionsDay Of The Tentacle RemasteredLucasArtsDay of the TentacleGrim Fandango

Double Fine have announced that their Remastered re-release of fine point 'n' clicker Grim Fandango will launch on January 27th, then completely overshadowed that with a casual mention that they're also working on a 'Special Edition' of Day of the Tentacle. Crumbs! Whatever 'Special Edition' means, the classic LucasArts adventure game will have one next year. Day of the Tentacle was a fine game, but one I got stuck on in my idiotic youth and never finished; here's my chance. What's so special about this version is a mystery for now, as it's announced and little more, but a mystery we can jab and guess at.
