About this game
Before the End is a 2D top-down grid-based puzzle game taking place during prehistoric times. In each level, the player must reach the goal to pass time and move ever closer towards the anticipated extinction of the dinosaurs. Within each level, you will utilize strange quantum powers to manipulate natural objects by swapping them amongst each other. You will also find yourself less alone as you play, recruiting an expanding cast of dinosaur friends to help you manipulate the environment in new and layered ways. Explore an expansive world by progressing through 70 increasingly difficult levels spread through a variety of natural environments. Witness what lies ahead and determine what you can accomplish in the time before the end? This game was originally created by Jodi Foster as an undergraduate Honors Thesis at the University of Florida.
