About the Game


A cartographer on a mission to chart routes to the first extra-galactic human colony discovers more than they intended to about the universe.


This is a short, experimental top-down 2D action-adventure through space with cosmic horror inspirations.

As the captain of a refurbished exploration vessel, you won't have many weapons at your disposal. You'll have to find your way through the maze of jump gates to Colony Cephea using only your light and your engine. Collect of the map information to plan a route for future vessels to the nascent colony.

While keyboard and mouse are supported, the intended experience is with a controller.

This game is free-to-play with no in-game purchases and is roughly 1 hour long.
