Gold



Gold is a row 1 tempo unlocked by beating the Epilogue with The Invader. this tempo makes time only move when you move. Standing still makes time stand almost completely still, allowing you to assess your situation and think of the best course of action. This also makes it easier to dodge attacks, since you can make time move at your own pace. It’s worth noting that attacking counts as moving, meaning attacking makes time move normally until the attack is over.

Gold is a passive ability, but pressing and holding the tempo button will make time move normally for as long as you hold down the button.

The player can complete the game with Gold to overclock it. You can enable overclocked tempos by toggling it above the difficulty meter. if overclocked is enabled, time does not move at all if you stand still, and pressing the tempo button will let you move in stopped time for up to 3 seconds. This can be used at any time and does not require full charge, and takes 9 seconds to fully recharge.

Notes:

-This tempo is locked behind Hands of Time

-The base version of this tempo is often considered one of the worst in the game since it does not grant the player any advantage other than more thinking time, which doesn't hold its own against the powers other tempo give. The overclock however is very viable, even among other overclocks.

-Gold is a reference to the video game SUPERHOT, an abstract single-player first person shooter where time only moves when you move.
