The Paradox Piece: A Chapter Mod
… the problem is not that the future holds a new threat, such as a nuclear war, but that there might be no future at all… -Henri Nouwen
In a desperate attempt to save the universe from nuclear war, Hat Kid reverses time… only for things to unfold in the same way again and again! Can she go back far enough in time to save the universe? Or is her attempt at undoing things impossible, naive, and even dangerous?
Her enemy, the Unicorn, Ruler of Planet Dominus, swears to never let her reverse time again, even if it means everything burns… but our little friend won’t let that get in her way!
There are 8 acts, set in a wide variety of settings.
Estimated completion time: an hour. or two.
This is the sequel to The Nuclear Option, but playing the first is not required to understand and enjoy this mod.
Required Hats: Every hat except Time Stop is required. Time Stop hat may be helpful for some players.
***Do not use One Hit Hero Badge or some scene transitions will kill you immediately.***
While greater effort was taken to ensure Co-op compatability on this mod, it is not guaranteed. I recommend to play it with Co-op disabled and Online Party turned off.
WARNINGS for: Claustrophobia and darker themes including self deletion.
Any resemblance with persons, events, and places, whether real or fictional, is purely coincidental, although the name Puella was taken from Moleman lore. Aside from that, this has no similarities or tie ins with the lore.
"This is the paradox… that in accepting what we cannot do or be, we begin to discover who we can be and what we can do." -Pat Deegan

Known Issues (not game breaking): Talking to Priscilla in Act 4 while collecting the clues will reset them, but you will still progress after collecting 3 clues even if they are duplicates. The time between Act 2 and Act 3 is several years, and this is not emphasized much. Also, the Memory Door shows Risa’s, not the player’s, memories, and this is not clear enough from the dialogue.
