About this game
Time Shooter 3: SWAT is a first-person room-clearing shooter where time bends around you. You breach doors, take down armed enemies and try not to hit the hostages, and the slow-motion mechanic turns every room into a small puzzle about where to step and when to shoot. It feels like planning a raid more than spraying bullets.
Made by another developer and hosted on Brainlag.
How to play
Each level drops you outside a set of rooms full of enemies. Time runs slowly while you stand still and speeds up when you move, so you can look around, pick your targets and move only when you are ready. Bullets travel through the air rather than hitting instantly, which means you can see them coming and step out of the way.
Kick down doors to get into rooms, then clear out every enemy. Some carry pistols, shotguns or rifles, some rush you with melee attacks, and some wear helmets, armour or carry shields that soak up your first shots. Hostages are mixed in with them, and shooting one is a mistake that costs you the level. Weapons can be picked up, and you can also throw a weapon at an enemy when you run dry.
Clearing a level takes you on to the next one, and new weapons and equipment open up as you progress. If you are shot, you restart the level and try a different approach.

Tips
- Stop moving before you aim. Standing still slows everything down, which gives you time to line up shots and spot hostages before you fire.
- Move in short steps. Because time speeds up while you walk, a long walk across an open room gives every enemy a chance to shoot at full speed.
- Watch for incoming bullets and sidestep them. They are visible in flight, and a small step to the side is usually enough.
- Check every target before you shoot. Hostages stand among the enemies, and in the slow-motion moments it is easy to fire at the first figure you see.
FAQ
Can I play on a phone or tablet?
Not really. It is built for a keyboard and mouse, with WASD to move and the mouse to aim and shoot, so you need a computer or a Chromebook with a mouse.
My keyboard is AZERTY. Does it work?
Yes. The game has a keyboard layout option, so French AZERTY players can move with Z Q S D instead of W A S D.
How do I stop dying so often?
Move less. Every step speeds up time for the enemies, so stand still to plan, take one step at a time, and only move when you have a clear shot or need to dodge a bullet.
