Is this a single player game? Then cool, 100%, love it. Co-op? Probably fine, but I'd have some implementation questions.

Pvp? I ate the biggest backlash I've had on the Internet on another forum when I argued that players shouldn't be able to unilaterally make the game easier for just themselves in a competitive game, and I'm still mad about it.

How would it even be possible to slow time for one player and not the other?

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 year ago

You could give bullet time to one player while the other moves and controls slowly. Or you could give one player bigger iframes to sort of approximate it.

Like, for one player they're invulnerable for a full two seconds after pushing dodge, but the other player is only invulnerable for a quarter second.

Lots of ways to try

But as someone else in this thread said, this was kind of me going off topic. Slightly related but not exactly what the article was about.
