Protocol Aftertime

Protocol Aftertime is a platformer adventure starring Jericho, whose journey spans two contrasting worlds: ancient Greece and the abandoned Hermes space station of the fourth millennium. As he searches for a way back to a family he feels connected to but does not fully understand, the distance from his destination—and the emotional strain of the journey—continues to grow.

Explore the origins of science through ancient philosophers and encounter the inventions and discoveries of future scientists. Jericho’s character develops as he navigates platforming challenges, uncovers hidden chambers, and confronts Olympian deities. The game is the debut title from Berlin-based independent studio Neverfly Games, a two-person team.
