Video Game

Was your game made solo or in a team?
In a team. Programming by Salvage and JuanJP600, Modeling by Soup Girl

Did you use any third party assets?
Yes, we used various assets, particularly for textures and a few sounds. (NASA/WikipediaCC/AmbientCG for textures, StevenAndolf for music). Comprehensive list here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_YnMv_xFV-yxILN4c8bbdarr1j_u6PQpDXAxUN6PAc8

Did you choose from one (or more) of the optional secondary themes?
No. We planned to squeeze in breakfast (to go with our game’s “routine” vibe; you’d wake up one day to a strange meal against “routine”) but couldn’t find a way (and the time) to make it good.

Does your game contain any 18+ content?
No.

I really like it too ! Amazing intro, I love how claustrophobic the station is, and great ending, with the tension building up as you go upstair, the music going insane and the anticipation of what you're about  to see through your small window ! I did experience some slutters as well.

amazing introduction, really cool setting and well paid buildup, my only issues were some stutters at the start but nothing more really

Really enjoyed the vibe. Wasn't able to progress after getting the 1st image aligned and submitted. I hit submit, the submit button greyed out, but I didn't get any email updates and wasn't able to interact with the upstairs dials any more. Not sure what I'm missing, but the lack of lighting and occasional performance stutters didn't help. P.S. Loved the intro video, what a chaotic sensation. Nice work.

Developer

Thanks a lot! I'm really sorry you couldn't progress, after submitting the image you are able to interact with the bed to get back into hibernation. There should definitely be some more feedback guiding you in that direction!

Ahh I looked around but didn't check the bed, I'll give it another go!

Wow, this was brilliant! Such a tactile game ... and as a physicist, the nerdy details were a delight. Loved it.

The VHS aesthetic is so cool, the movie at the beginning added so much. The gameplay is so well thought out, so many different interactions! Such a cool atmosphere, I love the lore you get about the company that sent you here and that they even have their own OS, that was a fun detail!

I am beyond impressed. That was an incredible experience, that whole NASA / hard science fiction thing has always appealed to me anyway, but in this you just got it figured out perfectly. From the tactile feel of all the switches to the sounds of SSTV signals. It's just perfectly done.

Great game! Nailed that VHS intro. The ending caught me off guard very well done!

Developer

Thank you! :D

Awesome game! That VHS intro really set the scene and the work tasks were on theme and fun to figure out. Did great with the feeling of "there is something very wrong" before the final reveal, too. Loved it!

Developer

Thank you! :D
