Timewave is a space shooter in which the player can alter the flow of time.

It's a top-down space shooter with a twist: your ship has a limited ability to control time. Holding one button causes the game to run at double speed and builds up a meter on-screen. Another button expends the bar but causes the game to play at half speed, affording the player some extra maneuvering room in times of need.

The game will features fix levels of increasing difficulty, followed by a battle against a final boss. It saves high scores and feature a full soundtrack and an array of explosion and gunshot noises.

Requirements:
libsdl
sdl_image
sdl_mixer
