About

Retro styled, top-down, space exploration adventure where you will meet new alien races, learn their secrets and build their trust to get their help to find a way home.

Storyline

In the year 2104, you were assisting with research and experimentation into a new renewal power source on a lab in orbit around Sol, when an equipment malfunction caused a massive electromagnetic disturbance, which ripped a hole in the fabric of spacetime.

You managed to scramble to an emergency lander pod, but as you were ejected, you were sucked through the resulting wormhole and catapulted to an unknown galaxy.

With limited supplies and no knowledge of how to get home, you need to survive, investigate what happened, and find a way home.
