Very cool take on the theme! I loved the atmosphere and it felt so tense and spooky. I usually am terrible at these types of games but felt like this was challenging without being too punishing, which made it very enjoyable to play. Really great work and fun to play!

1 minute before the deadline! This isn't ebay. Very polished, atmospheric, beautiful and engaging game. Level progression felt balanced and fair.

Well, I was caught up with Christmas stuff and kind of forgot about the deadline. Still, I was in time. Thanks for your nice feedback.

Loved the theme in this game. The sound design and the lore really set an ominous tone to the whole experience. I think you could've even leaned heavier into the horror vibes with some visuals or something like that.

Thanks a lot. Yeah, I could have leaned further into the horror elements, but to be honest, the whole story was kind of the last thing I worked on. It would have been a lot smarter to set the setting first and then design the game, but my smart ass did it the other way around.

Great job! It has all what one game needs :)

Developer

Thanks, this means a lot to me.

The opening story had me really intrigued. I think you originally wanted to make some kind of horror/thriller here but ended up having to leave it on the cutting room floor, and I really wish I could have seen what you had in store there. This was really good!

Dude, right from the opening text crawl, I was in. Fantastic job setting the mood, great controls. I enjoyed playing this one a lot!

Thanks!

I'm a sucker for thruster-based momentum games, but this one was really  fun..

Developer

Thanks so much. I love thruster-based momentum games as well. I got the idea from playing Outer Wilds.

Great thruster mechanics, felt like I was in space. I liked the vibe and atmosphere as well, really appreciated the story setup to get me in the zone. The Oblivion will change us forever!
