Turn back the clock and fight to repair Time itself in this cinematic action platformer with fast sword combat and time-based powers. You are the Warden of Time, Ouro Kronii - be proud and fight hard!
Developed by Team Chrono Gear, GalaxyTrail · Published by holo Indie
You play as Ouro Kronii, the Warden of Time. After the Chrono Gear is shattered in a battle with Alter Laplus, Kronii sets out to recover the scattered Golden Gears and repair the space-time continuum.
This 2D action platformer sends you through distinct, stage-based missions combining platforming and sword combat. Use Haste to speed up and Stasis to slow time, alongside Kronii’s movement abilities, to handle enemies, obstacles, and boss encounters.
Stages introduce their own mechanics and hide collectibles to find as you explore. Connected hub areas link the missions and grow busier as the story progresses; you can also revisit levels to search for more items or chase faster completion times, and collect music tracks along the way.
Reviewers often praise the responsive movement, creative variety between stages, and the way Kronii’s time powers support both combat and platforming. The soundtrack, presentation, and story also come up frequently as highlights, and many reviewers who were unfamiliar with Hololive say the game still worked for them. Some mention that later levels can feel unusually long or difficult, and a smaller number report translation problems or bugs.
You are Ouro Kronii, the Warden of Time. Your desire to become the strongest being in the universe led to the creation of the Chrono Gear, an artifact with the power to preserve timelines.
