Achron, a 'meta time strategy' game
So I recently stumbled upon this game that's been in development for a few years now and I thought it was interesting. It's a real time strategy game effectively. You send out units to battle other players etc, but the big difference between this game and other rts' is that this one employs a form of time travel.

From the FAQ:
Q: What is it?
A: Achron is a multiplayer real-time strategy (RTS) war game designed around the ability to time travel anywhere along a timeline. Jump back in time to save that production facility, or add a flanking maneuver to an attack! It's entirely up to you.
The game is currently in beta and they are accepting pre-orders for $30 (pretty steep tbh) which allows you to get access to the beta and all future updates (similar to minecraft :P).
It seems like a really interesting concept at least. Im not sure but I may bite the bullet and buy it just cause of how interested I am in the time-travel concept. If I do I will make sure to post my thoughts on the gameplay!
Till then though, you can check out the different gameplay vids here

EDIT2: lol it is CC payment only, no paypal. What a failure.
