WARNING: This game may potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised.

There are two people on this small planet. Unfortunately, your neighbor is a very young and inexperienced astronaut. You have to take care of him.

Now this klutz has left the base without warning, and there is no communication with him. You are standing in the vestibule of the base, dressed in a spacesuit. The hatch to outer space will open when the compressor pumps out enough air from the room.

It so happens that your mission begins with an incomplete supply of oxygen. You have only 10% of the standard amount of oxygen at your disposal. The remainder is enough to breathe for just a few minutes.

There is an oxygen refueling station on the surface of the planet, but you should be careful. Keep in mind that when you return to the base, you will not be able to take off your spacesuit until the compressors fill the room with air.

There has been an unofficial rule on this planet for a long time. Don't visit the dark side.

I think mouse sensitivity and player speed should a bit be increased. Other than that it is a good game, liked the atmosphere! Keep going!

Thanks for the comment!

You're right, the sluggish controllability of movements really creates discomfort. I've been thinking a lot about how to find a compromise between realism and the fun of the gameplay. In fact, on a planet with a gravity many times less than Earth's, walking speed and the ability to rotate are much weaker than it is implemented in my game. In addition, I planned to use the player's inability to turn around abruptly in some frightening effects.

In any case, your comment is important for further work. When designing changes in mechanics, I will definitely take it into account.
