    There was a game with this exact same mechanic ...but it was just pointers you move around. It was featured here on Kotaku's "Hot Flashes" a long time ago. C'mon people, refresh my memory!

    Anyway the game was awesome. And this looks to be a 3D take on it.

    @Glaiel-Gamer: Ah thank you. Cursor*10 was a great game. Didn't know there was a sequel.

    And you're right, Luke. It didn't have donkeys. It was a simpler time, a time when we had to use our imaginations to envision donkeys and tacos.

    @dowingba: there's also upcoming for the PsP, echochrono, the same mechanic as chronotron

    This is the first to do it in 3D as far as I know, and con burros y tacos to boot.

    @dowingba: Actually, they've stated that games like Cursor*10, Chronotron and Braid were part of the inspiration behind this game.

    I was testing this out last week. Gotta say it's looking pretty good, it's one of those "Ohhh shit, why hadn't anyone thought of this gameplay mechanic before?" type of game.

    @FlameEye: Are you free to tell us any more? For instance, what is the name of this 'Time Donkey?' and what are his motivations for being a Time Donkey?

    @-MasterDex-: I'm really not sure. Wasn't really formal or anything like that, I guess I'd have to ask first. All I can probably say is the prototype I was working on had some kick-ass placeholder Mario 64 background music.

    I don't really know the name of the Time Donkey anyway, never got around to ask.

    Their last couple of games were a bit... disappointing, but you simply *cannot* go wrong with time-traveling donkeys. It's physically impossible to screw that up.
    Not since the days of Llamatron have I been so excited for futuristic ungulates.

    The words "Time Donkey" themselves are so inspiring when put together, I don't know why it hasn't been done before.
