About the Game

The Astrolarix is a solitary starship that navigates in the vacuum of space, you must survive at all costs, gather resources, face adversity avoiding the dangers and overcome the obstacles to progress in the story.

This is an isometric adventure with survival elements: Water, food, oxygen and HP.
Keeping optimum levels at all costs is a priority if you want to get out safe.
Search for containers as well as the different devices on the ship to get supply and useful items.

Finding the route in the darkness will not be a problem if you have a good sense of direction, once you understand the areas you will become an expert.
The ship's resources are finite so you must administer them well, at all costs.

Special Features

About the Gameplay

The gameplay is based on interfaces and getting items to survive while you go moving through maps by dodging what might be called a maze game, all in an isometric view with an original pixel art style.

The duration of the game is variable depending on how good you are: an average of 3 to 5 hours in the Normal difficulty is expected for the first try, and you can SpeedRun it to approach your best time (that is showcased in the general data on the title menu).

Audience

Due to the complexity of some terms as well as certain dramatic situations, the estimated age rating is +12.

For Gamers who want an indie and retro adventure game on a mysterious spacecraft with pixel-by-pixel graphics, simple gameplay and a different approach style, discover and survive aboard the Astrolarix.

Defining Considerations


* The Game Is Dedicated to A Linear Progress.
* There is no combat system as such; it is more dedicated to going around evading obstacles and solving riddles to scape certain areas.
* Is a game made in RPG MAKER MV but is completely personalized, music, ambient sounds, interfaces, characters and everything else.
* It does not have replayability, once you finish the main story and you have unlocked the documents of the game there is nothing more to do. Except if you
want to try it again in a greater difficulty, in that case, you will have fewer resources and the enemies will do more damage. You can use the Delete data
section to restart your progress from the title menu.
