Every room, every character, every frame: real paper, cut and animated by hand. Spacetime Chronicles is an animated feature film that turned into a game. Start for free: the first part of the adventure (about 25 minutes) is included. Unlock the full journey with a single in-app purchase, at any time from the pause menu or when the free part ends. Already bought the game? Everything stays unlocked. Fred was late for school. Then a cat walked past — and the century changed. Spacetime Chronicles is a paper stop-motion adventure about a boy, a cat, and the accidental collapse of time. Every room is a real paper set, every puzzle is solved by looking closely at the world, and nothing is explained twice. WHAT YOU DO Follow the cat through a school, an airport, a Tokyo street, a bus depot and places that should not exist. Climb, jump, push, hide, and work out what the world wants from you. Some rooms are quiet. Some are a maze with a clock running down. One is a tesseract. MADE BY HAND Every set, every character and every frame was cut from paper and animated in stop motion — this is an animated feature film that turned into a game, made by one person over several years. WHAT'S INSIDE - A full adventure, several hours long - English voices, subtitles in English, Italian, Spanish, French and German - Touch controls you can move, resize and place wherever you like - No internet, no account, no ads, no tracking - Play offline, anywhere Buy it once. It's yours.
