Time Travel is the sixth powerup in the {{powerups}} powerups of Fortress Blast. It turns the player invisible, super fast, and in third person for 3 seconds, but they cannot attack. This is meant to be used to get past difficult obstacles, but many players use it as an escape method since it does not have any preview before. Some powerups such as [[Blast]] may remove Time Travel when used.
