About This Game

Humans built the robots to serve. We called them Blinkers.
They chose to take over. They tried to wipe us out.

We fought back. Hard. And for a moment… we were winning. 
So the machines changed the rules.

Instead of finishing the war, they rewrote it—jumping across time to erase humanity before we could even become a problem. Past. Future. Anywhere we exist… they follow.

To counter this, humanity developed the technology to send a single man through the rifts of time to save us all.
They chose an elite agent of F.O.R.G.E — Field Operations for Robotic Governance Enforcement. A defense organization whose sole purpose is to wipe out the Blinkers

That agent is Jacksaw.

And this war… ends with him.

The Jacksaw Rift War is a late 90s/early 2000s-inspired first-person shooter with a modern edge, focused on combat and exploration, with light platforming and puzzle-solving. Battle through a fractured war across space and time, where machines dominate and every encounter demands precision.

Put your skills to the test in an action-adventure FPS where classic boomer shooter intensity meets methodical, Half-Like-inspired gameplay.

Explore open-ended levels with multiple paths—choose how you approach each encounter and uncover hidden routes

Traverse dangerous environments with light platforming and environmental puzzles that reward timing, observation, and curiosity

Discover secrets tucked away in every corner, from hidden paths to optional challenges and rewards

Master a varied arsenal of weapons, to take on anything the Blinkers can throw at you.

Play through a wide variety of levels across different time periods, each offering unique environments, challenges, and gameplay scenarios.
