EraShift

This game is created for Game JaMM 2026 with the theme "Reverse"

**Reverse time, reshape reality, and solve puzzles across three evolving eras.**

---

📖 Description

EraShift is a puzzle platformer where players travel between three different eras — Prehistoric, Modern, and Futuristic — to solve environmental puzzles and reach the finish. Each era changes the world in unique ways: broken paths may become accessible, obstacles may disappear, and hidden routes may emerge. Players must think creatively and manipulate time itself to progress through increasingly complex levels.

Built for a game jam with the theme “Reverse”, the game explores the idea of reversing time and reality through world transformation mechanics and stylized abstract visuals.
