Time Travel 3

Time Travel

It is a way of travelling back to the past or a distant future. According to some people’s theory, time is just a straight line, everything that happen will happen and some believe that every time something happens, an alternate universe is created.

Some of the terms that usually come with time travelling are the butterfly effect; namely that small differences in the initial condition of a dynamical system may produce large variations in the long term behaviour of the system.(cited from Wikipedia). This effect is a common trope in fiction and with the “what if” cases where one minor events seemingly happen which can cause a two slightly different outcome.

As stated previously, every time something happens an alternate universe is created, then maybe a parallel world could also exist as well, perhaps people who are alike but have a more different personality due to a slight change of event or an alternate cause.

The fourth dimension, a relation which unifies space and time into a single continuum, or perhaps tapping to these concepts, one could perhaps find a hidden way of travelling through time?

How Time travel relates to Games Design:

Players sometimes want to go back to the same sense of enjoyment perhaps at a specific level or playing that specific game scene again perhaps we as game designers may add a control setting which allows player to set its level and play certain storyline again in the game control setting
