Not recommended unless you want to try something unique. The concept is really neat with the stacking layers allowing you to see alternate locations. The execution leaves much to be desired though. The graphics and overall presentation need work and there is only the one level. The movement felt gamey at times, like you could pop through spots you probably shouldn't. In the end, for free, it's a neat little experiment, but most can skip.

Neat little one-screen puzzle where you have to move panels from different time periods around to get across obstacles and walls. Took 6 minutes to beat but it's an interesting concept.
