Time Flies Releases on July 31 For PlayStation 5, Switch, And PC
PRESS RELEASE – July 8, 2025 – Publisher Panic and developer Playables (KIDS, Plug & Play) are happy to announce that their highly anticipated hand-drawn adventure Time Flies, the game that has you take on the life of a small fly with a long bucket list, is coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PC on July 31.
First revealed in 2022 during the Day of the Devs SGF 2022 Edition showcase, developers Michael Frei and Raphaël Munoz have since spent much creative energy into crafting a light hearted but thoughtful experience about our limited time on Earth.
“Flies are pretty annoying, and we’ve been listening to one every day for the past four years of game development,” says Frei. “Please do your part and Wishlist the game now, I really need therapy.”
