Use of the limitation
on a literal level our game takes place above a black hole, a scenario in which there is no ground. on a thematic level, the main character engages with the meaninglessness of their final mission, we thought "there is no ground" a nice metaphor for that sentiment of disillusionment, depression and ennui.

very polished game with good sound and art
thanks for playing and for the kind words!
Great job the art was great and the sound was great. The only thing I wish there was was being able to see the black hole as it was photographed. Other then that the ending was a great finale. Well done :D.
thank you for playing, i’m glad you liked it! i agree we could have done more to show the black hole and make it more clear that there was a black hole down there.
Really nice graphics and polished game. I enjoyed it a lot.
The only thing I would've liked was if I could've shot the projectiles on my own.
It was great to do just the WASD movement in the beginning, but the second time I went with my gun I was like, mhm, that's kinda boring to just press W till I'm up again.
But since it's just a little, short game and there were progression in story, it wasn't a big deal since it was only this short amount of time I got this feeling.
Nothing else to say. Superb work!
thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it! thanks for the feedback too and i agree with it fully – we had all sorts of fun and interesting weapons planned for the player but sadly we ran out of time.
Loved this game! Great story!
thank you for playing! glad you enjoyed it.
