Publisher The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild have announced The Ambassador: Fractured Timelines for Windows PC.
Developed by tinyDino Games, this fantasy twin-stick shooter is focused around time manipulation. You play as Gregor, an Ambassador of Time for the Eternal Fellowship.
The Fellowship’s capital city has been destroyed, and as one of the last Ambassadors of Time left, you must travel across the world tracking down those responsible for the attack.
tinyDino Games explained (via press release) their inspiration for the game:
“We like to think of it as a mashup of all the indie games we enjoyed while learning how to make games ourselves. Because of this, you will notice elements of Braid, Crawl, The Binding of Isaac, and Nuclear Throne all tossed together into a new and shiny twin-stick shooter.”
You can check out the announcement trailer above. While the Steam page does list its release date as 2020, the trailer description notes it is releasing Q3, 2020.
