About

Time Wasters (2023) is an exciting blend of action and indie gaming that plunges players into a chaotic space shooter environment. As a bullet heaven roguelite, it challenges players to equip and upgrade various weapons while battling swarms of enemies. The game's unique mechanic involving Time & Space Cubes allows players to manipulate the timeline, enhancing the overall gameplay experience and making it stand out among its peers.

For optimal performance, Time Wasters is accessible even on entry-level hardware, requiring at least a GPU with a minimum score of around 600. Players can expect a smooth experience with decent FPS on lower settings, making it suitable for those using budget-friendly systems. To achieve higher frame rates and better graphics settings, a mid-range GPU is recommended, enabling players to fully enjoy the game's vibrant visual style while managing the intense action.

If you enjoy casual and action-packed gameplay that rewards skill and strategic thinking, Time Wasters is definitely worth playing. Its engaging mechanics and fun atmosphere have earned positive ratings, appealing to fans of both the roguelite genre and space shooters.

Performance profile

September 2023 release. As a current-generation title, Time Wasters pushes modern hardware — expect to need an RTX 40-series or RX 7000-series GPU to enjoy it at native 4K Ultra without leaning on upscaling.

RPGs like Time Wasters stress VRAM during long sessions — texture streaming, mods and open-world traversal inflate memory use over time. 8 GB VRAM is a practical floor; 12 GB+ is worth the headroom at 1440p and above.

Extremely light — Time Wasters runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

In the far reaches of space, there exists a mysterious and powerful artifact known as the Time Cube. It is said that whoever possesses this artifact has the ability to manipulate time itself, bending it to their will and gaining an unparalleled advantage in any conflict. As a skilled space ship captain, you have been chosen to embark on a mission to collect as many Time Cubes as possible and use them in the fight against the hordes of enemy ships that threaten the peace of the galaxy.
