Eugene's Casualties of Causality

Press Space to Start at Title Screen

NOTE: You can skip levels by pressing N - if you're stuck or frustrated, check out some of the later levels!

Eugene from Eugene just can't catch a break. This time he went and ticked off the Cosmic Wych- and she's trapped him in her Quantum Country Club! The only way out is to navigate through her Death Golf course, located in the Chronodome, where time does not always flow linearly. But he won't be able to do it alone. Luckily he's made a new causal acquaintance- himself, from the past! Actually, many himselves. Their timelines end, so that his may continue. Eugene from Eugene meets Eugenes from Eugene in: Eugene's Casualties of Causality!

F.A.Q.

• How many Eugenes can I make?
  • We didn't put an upper limit on that. Have fun- but keep an eye on your Death Golf score if you're going to make Eugene make lots of Eugenes. Also, inevitably, refer to the following question.
• Eugene is stuck! What do I do?
  • If Eugene gets stuck- we tried to avoid this, but the poor guy is under a lot of pressure- just hit R on the keyboard, or the left face button on a controller to reset the level. Since we want people not to get frustrated, this will reset your score for that level to 0 so you can reset all you want!
• Hm.. it looks like my scorecard didn't register my score for course 3 / my scorecard switched course 3 and 4!
  • Didn't we mention that time doesn't move linearly in the- ah, who are we kidding? We switched those two around accidentally on the scorecard. The pars should still be correct- just the position of those two courses is switched. Chalk it up to chronotons, or inverse temporal quarks or something.
