A Back to the Future-inspired platformer: the scientist Austin sends a boy named SJ into the past to bring back his friend Joe.

SJ's time-travel watch runs on NES cartridges. Collect enough of them and you can warp between 2020 and 1989. You start with three hearts.

SJ Games, an eight-year-old French developer, made the demo for the NESmaker Byte-Off 2020, and dale_coop distributes it. It placed 9th in the jam. A tool-assisted run on TASVideos finishes it in under a minute.
