Q: I want to play your game, but I don't have a PS3. Will it come to XBLA, PC, iPhone, Sega Saturn, etc?
A: Currently, we are focusing on developing the Playstation 3 version. Once we finish that, we will consider bringing the game to other platforms.
Q: I don't have a guitar controller. Can I still play your game?
A: Yes! We've worked very hard balancing the game to ensure that it is equally fun with the guitar controller and a gamepad. In our focus tests, it seems like people's preference is split down the middle when it comes to controlling the game.
Q: I'm confused. Does the game play forwards or backwards?
A: Time is reversed throughout the game, so you play through the
game backwards. However, there is a power up that allows you to change the direction
of the flow of time allowing you to undo your mistakes and repeat a section of the
game that you just did. While using this power up, time moves forward at 2x, which
acts like a rewind on a VCR. You do not have control of your ship, but you can rewind
for as long or short as you'd like (provided you have enough fuel). For more information,
read on for the detailed instructions on how to play the game.
Q: I played the demo on Steam last year, and I'm not impressed.
A: That's not a question. The demo on Steam was for an early prototype we did for the 2009 IGF. The game has improved considerably since then, and we still have a ways to go on development, so the game will be even better when we release.
Q: Why isn't my question answered here?
A: Because no one has asked it yet! Please don't hesistate to ask
it at help@retrogradegame.com
