to beat the game in three hours the first time he played it, but I guess if you're reviewing games for a living you're bound
to have agile thumbs.

Revamped website
Posted by Erik Möller
Welcome to the new and revamped website of the indie game developer TimeTrap. After a lot of hard work we're excited to say that our first title Emberwind is finally complete. It's a very exciting stage in the life of the company and we felt this should be celebrated by a fresh look on the web. In the past there's been little time and need to update our site, but this is the start of a new chapter. To start it off we've added a development section where we'll post various bits and pieces of usable info to developers and people interested in games.
