The Back to the Future movies and game, deal with the science fiction idea of time travel.
Doc Brown mentions that he invents his time machine because, "The intent here is to gain a clearer perception of humanity where we've been, where we're going, the pitfalls, the possiblities, the perils and the promise. Prehaps even an answer to that universal question - Why?"
Which is very similar to the unnamed time traveler in H. G. Wells, The Time Machine. In wanting to know the destiny of mankind and maybe fix that. However, Back to the Future is rather complex as actual physicist perceive time travel.
Dr. Emmett Brown invents the flux capacitor. A device that uses electricity to travel though time. Which by Albert Einstein, if you want to actually in theory travel though time, you need to use energy. Not that 1. 21 gigawatts (Plutonium or a bolt of lightning) would actually work in theory as in Back to the Future movies and game but its close enough.
Dr. Brown comes up with the idea for the flux capacitor on November 5th, 1955. He was standing on his bathroom toilet trying to hang his clock, the toilet was wet, so he slipped and hit his head on the sink and when he came to his senses had a vision of the flux capacitor, in what makes the time travel possible in Back to the Future.
A major theory that is constant thought out the movies and game is the Grandfather paradox. Basically, the theory that if time travel was actually possible and say you went back in time and killed your grandfather, you'd crease to exist, aka the 'ripple effect'. As this theory creates a ripple in the stream of time. Like when you toss a rock into a still river.
Time, by many theories and the Back to the Future movies and game is viewed as these rivers. Expect, rather than psychical ripples you see in the rock tossed in the still river, the river of time branches off to an alternate version of that river.
In Back to the Future 2, Dr. Brown draws Marty this river of time.
The undistributed timeline (without Marty interference) begins in 1908. When the 'Von Braun' family comes to America. Quickly changing their last name to 'Brown' because of the First World War.
Later in, 1931, Emmett Lathrop Brown, was not the scientist he ends up to be. Actually, he was a clerk working for his father, Judge Brown. Who disapproves highly of his son's Emmett's so called ambition to be a scientist. For one, Emmett was and continues to be wishy washy. However all those science fiction novels of the day, Jules Verne and H. G. Wells, inspires his imagination. Not to mention what Judge Brown wants Emmett to follow his footsteps, of law. That Emmett disliked with a flaming passion and late at night did scientific experiments in the family's garage. These include,
*Rocket Power Jetpack *Rocket Power Car
Despite Emmett's after hours working, he remains fearful of his father Judge Brown. Emmett never completes a full scale working model of the rocket power jetpack because that runs on moonshine, which is outlawed.
At one point, Emmett becomes distress with his rocket power car, the idea behind that was, to make traffic jams a thing of the past. However, during the viewing of the movie Frankenstein, his mind is reanimated and he figures a solution to his problem, which is static electricity.
It wasn't until the Hill Valley Science Expo, in October of 1931, that Emmett went public with his invention and needless to say, the flying car of the future was a failure. However, also a success. Emmett got himself a name in the scientific community and Emmett and his father, had a bitter relationship until the end.
November 5th, 1955, see above pargraph about the flux capacitor.
October 26th, 1985, Dr.Brown modifies a Delorean into a fully functional time machine, on October 26th, 1985 at 1:16 am. After successfully performing a one minute time travel with Einstien the dog, Doc Brown is killed by the group of Libyan terrorists he stole the plutonium from.
Among the fandom, the fact the game and movie being one in the same is debatable. However, if you watch the beginning of the game that takes place in the beginning of the first Back to the Future movie, when Doc is showing Marty the Delorean for the first time and then disappears. That takes the game in another direction then said movie but that's because the game is after the movies, as you do see the picture from 1885 in Marty's room in the game from Back to the Future 3 movie. Due to the fact, Doc went back into the past in 1931 and got himself killed by mistake, as you later find out and therefore, that's why he's disappearing at the beginning of the game that starts like the movie. Considering, the movies in themselves act on that same principle.
