About tinyBuild



We're an indie game development and publishing company. No Time To Explain is our first game. It came out of a successful Kickstarter and Greenlight adventure. Since No Time To Explain, we started helping other developers with their games. After getting enough muscle behind our internal studio, we came back to No Time To Explain, and completely remade the game in a proper engine. No Time To Explain Remastered is free for everyone who owns the original!

An absurd kitchen sink sort of game. There are a lot of good ideas and they are presented at a break-neck pace. There are 14 worlds each with their own gimmick taking about 3 or 4 hours to beat in total. The actual platforming is kind of mediocre but it doesn't matter so much because the pace and the creativity means everything always feels fresh and exciting. The story is dumb fun that doesn't try to make sense but is a good time regardless. The game only works if you find it funny and it is a bit out there so you might not. I recommend this game on sale but only if you find the trailer funny or interesting.

A version of you from the future tells you there's no time to explain, gets his ass killed by a giant crab 3 seconds in (he deserved it though), and you go on a wild adventure through alternate realities to do something and possibly save the world while your at it. And what exactly is the plot for all this? No one cares, because video games. Also there's a dance button because why not. You travel through colorful places, collecting hats and dealing with crazy things and dumb ideas in one of the earliest forms of raw nonsense in a video game. The screaming also makes it worth it. I would say more but there isn't much to say and that's okay, because video games. P.S. I'm pretty sure there's no time to explain because either it would defeat the punchline of the game or the devs were too lazy to come up with an actual explanation.

No Time To Explain Remastered is an energetic and unapologetically absurd platformer that takes a simple joke and stretches it into a wildly entertaining adventure. Developed and published by tinyBuild, the game begins with one of the most memorable openings in indie gaming: a future version of the protagonist suddenly bursts into the room, urgently declaring that there is no time to explain before being abducted by a giant crab. Instead of slowing down to provide context, the game embraces the chaos and launches players into a nonstop journey through bizarre dimensions, alternate timelines, and increasingly ridiculous situations. The heart of the experience revolves around a unique movement system powered by futuristic weapons. Rather than serving only as tools for combat, these weapons generate powerful recoil that can launch the player across levels. This mechanic transforms traditional platforming into a physics-driven challenge where momentum, timing, and experimentation are essential. Traversing environments becomes just as important as defeating enemies, and mastering the recoil-based movement creates a rewarding sense of progression. What initially feels unusual gradually …

One of my favorite games ever. It may not really be much, especially compared to other game, but it was my childhood, and I'll forever thank the devs for making it. <3
