Inertia Pause

As bullets start flying, time pauses. You have one chance to rearrange everything before time unpauses.

Inertia Pause is a single-player, first-person puzzle game where you manipulate the frozen scene of a shootout, then unpause time to save your allies and kill your enemies. 

You arrive on the scene mid-shootout, and everything comes to a stop. 

• Move freely while time is paused
• Redirect bullets and other objects
• Pull allies out of danger
• Set up enemy takedowns

Then unpause time and watch your carefully set up plan unfold in an instant!

Features

• Solve puzzles by manipulating the environment and using physics as your weapon to save allies and kill enemies
• 10 levels across 5 unique environments, each with a Normal and Hard scenario
• Optional objectives for each level that will require creative, out-of-the-box solutions
• Experiment with 10 different interactable objects
• Face 4 different kinds of enemies, including armoured variants that may require new strategies

About the Project

Inertia Pause was a student project inspired by SUPERHOT and the Quicksilver time-slowing movie scenes.

Suno AI was used to generate the game's background music.
