Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a relaxed pace may find the one-minute countdown and death condition demanding.
- Players looking for fixed, authored stages may not enjoy levels generated randomly.
- Players seeking a story-focused or role-playing structure may find the stated focus on scoring and level access too limited.
Our take on Timen runner
Rather than centering progression on fixed platform stages, the game uses randomly generated levels and a one-minute timer. Collecting five elements extends a run by 30 seconds, making time management part of its platforming structure.
What is Timen runner?
Timen is a 2D pixel platformer set in a world of clocks and watch mechanisms, with steampunk elements and randomly generated levels.
The goal is to score points and climb the player rankings. Each run begins with one minute on the countdown; when it reaches zero, Timen dies and the run ends. Collect hour keys to open new levels. Gathering five elements adds 30 seconds to the timer. The game also features different character abilities and 8-bit music.
