Another Adventure Jam 2023 game, this is the extended version of Ines in "Not enough time". I played the jamversion and it was a bit shorter, basically one room/time and the glovebox...
You are on a fun trip on vacations with your uncle Lee and suddenly you are trapped in a timetunnel and need to escape. But at least you can visit different times and do things there, a fun time travel adventure. The van you are in once was the tour van of the band without drums and we also meet a huge fan of the band that got the van as fan. And we meet uncle Lee as, fun pun intended, Holeegram in the future.
The game seems to made in a custom adventure game engine written in Emscripten, that is pretty cool but sadly it seems the sound engine, based on fmod, does not play nice with my browser running under linux. But some sound things are weird under linux. sorry about the constant crackling during the recording, you can mute that when it is too annoying, I kept it in to showcase what is there... And there are quite some tunes, with a lot of variety that get the job done pretty good for a jamegame.
The graphics are very good pixelart and nice to look at with some neat animations, for example the band playing their part (there was just no room for drums in the van I suppose, so playing the air drums is fine too), and the constant flowing timetunnel. The puzzles are fun to solve, especially the hardest puzzle imho, getting the cassette recorder, once that one was solved the rest clicked into place and the story unfolded and tangled up to the end...

Synopsis:
"Not enough time" is a short pixel-art point & click adventure. It is a sequel to Uncle Lee strikes again and Upon a Möbius strip, but it can be enjoyed as a standalone game as well. Our improved recipe features 500% more characters than the previous games!

You play as Ines, a 15-year-old girl who's on her way to Lake Fenfef for a relaxing trip with her uncle. Things, however, are never that easy when uncle Lee is involved, and she ends up stranded in time with nothing but a broken reality-fixing device™.
