Ninth Tide
An original deduction and time-loop strategy game about learning from failed timelines, coordinating limited information, and changing the outcome before the loop runs out.
About
What it is
Ninth Tide is built around repeated scenarios. Players do not begin with the full picture, so each loop is partly about solving the immediate problem and partly about learning which characters, events, and hidden rules are actually driving it.
The project is being designed for solo play with AI as well as multiplayer. Scenarios can vary in complexity, and the early teaching scenarios are intended to introduce the rules through play rather than through a large wall of instructions.

I'm still adding screenshots and polishing this page. More coming soon.
Development
Making it
The current work is centered on scenario authoring, AI behavior, automated stress testing, and making sure the underlying scripts are solvable and consistent before more presentation work is layered on top.
