Gameplay

In Chronovolt, players control the Chronosphere, guiding it through levels using the Vita's tilt-sensitive motion controls. By collecting power-ups, known as Chronovolts, in each level, players are able to manipulate time, such as rewinding the game to save oneself from a fall that would have otherwise resulted in death.
