The Shop
You can go to the Shop between time sweeps. Depending
on what is in stock, you can buy upgrades to your abilities,
sweeper, or ammunition. The upper-right panel shows your
current number of RETRYs and RETRY holders, and your
maximum number of time controls.
ABILITY UPGRADES
Time holder
Each time holder increases the number of time controls you
can have.
RETRY
A RETRY lets you resume a few seconds before you were
defeated by a monster or trap. You cannot have more RETRYs
than your number of RETRY holders.
RETRY holder
Each holder increases the number of RETRYs you can have.
SWEEPER UPGRADES
With enough money, you can buy new sweepers with increased
suction and other abilities—some even shoot ames! You
can also buy sweeper packs to increase your sweeper’s
holding capacity.
AMMUNITION UPGRADES
You can purchase heavy weights or bombs that are more
effective than trash for defeating monsters.
Tips and Tricks
The following are tips and tricks compiled by our most
experienced time sweepers. Pay attention!
Experiment with your time controls. They can help you
defeat monsters, avoid traps, solve puzzles… and reach
secret areas.
Do not pick up every time crystal you see! Build only valid
combinations that yield time controls (that is, three or
four crystals of the same color).
When a time monster’s colors ash, the monster is invin-
cible. Wait for the colors to stop ashing, then attack.
Maximize damage by shooting large trash items.
Areas that you sweep can be swept again. Go back to
previous areas and stock up on time controls and gold.
If you buy a better sweeper from the Shop, you may want
to revisit an earlier area. Some hidden sections may
be accessible!
Many key items can only be purchased in the Shop, such
as RETRY holders.
Note the exchange rate for trash to gold at the end of
an area. Try and grab the most valuable objects before
entering the goal gate.
All time monsters and bosses have unique abilities. Learn
from their movements and attack patterns. Some signal
just before they attack!
