As in the movie, the vehicle is capable of reaching temporal displacement at 88 mph, which is displayed on the bottom right of the screen. In the first film car, once the plutonium in inserted into the fuel chamber (with the character standing behind the vehicle and pressing the Action Key) the time circuits are engaged (which you can alter the Destination time, via a combination of keys). The Libyans chase the DeLorean in a Volkswagen bus, as in the movie. Once the player leaves the junkyard, the player can either choose to escape via time travel, drive until the Libyans crash and explode, destroy the time machine or use any weapons to destroy the Libyans.

In the tutorial for version 0.2e, the player drives to the junkyard to obtain the plutonium from the Libyans inside the first film car. The player can drive to Sunshine Autos and construct one of the four versions of the Time Machine the first film Time Machines (with the options: with the hook, without hook, and regular), the second film, hover-converted Time Machine, the 50's Time Machine, or the Railroad Time Machine. There is no specific goal at the moment, other than free roam.

The player starts at the Vercetti Estate with a regular DeLorean DMC-12 parked in the driveway. A screenshot of the DeLorean time machine reaching temporal displacement plus the altered HUD (outdated version).
