You're a researcher at the White Dwarf Research Station in Planet A of the Planetary System Xf4BA-2. But as the star runs out of all of its energy, you must evacuate, as the Heat Death of the universe starts to show its face.

(Note: I'm not an astrophysisict, and 10 minutes of Wikipedia can only do so much for accuracy. Also, please let me know if you played it all the way to the end)

Love the glow on the star. I managed to escape leaving behind a bunch of pretty particles. Great execution especially for a Jam entry!


Some low effort would-be-nice things that you might consider adding:

  • Some squash and stretch on the jump to better sell the feeling of weightlessness
  • Some particle as you reach a checkpoint to give it a little satisfactory pop.
  • Dust particles as you walk. Do they have those in space?

Hello again its your bro, its a cool idea i liked the concept, kinda slow game tho needs a little lore action to it, and kinda expected a more touching ending
