Kessler Syndrome
Alone in orbit with a corpse and no way to reach Earth, play as an astronaut who must keep a defunct space station aloft. Maintain the onboard systems, deal with the constant threat of space junk, and navigate the dark halls in zero-gravity. Day by day more systems fail, and the void draws closer.

7 itemsAbout the Game
Alone in orbit with the corpse of your only colleague and no way to reach Earth, play as a weary astronaut who must struggle to keep a defunct space station in orbit. While aboard the Damocles space station you must maintain the various systems aboard, deal with the ever-present threat of great storms of space junk, and navigate the dark halls in zero-gravity. Day by day more and more systems fail, and the cold of the void draws ever closer.
Kessler Syndrome is a student made slow-burn horror game, developed at Champlain College as a capstone project. We are excited to showcase what we have been working on this semester to any and all who may be interested!
Key features:
6 degrees of freedom allows you to float through the space station with ease
Check your task log and navigate your way through the ship to pick up tools and complete tasks
Maintain the ship for a week to achieve a climactic conclusion.
