Our History

Armed with your trusty plasma cutter and your ship’s sentient artificial intelligence computer, you must search for a way home. During your journey you will uncover secrets and challenges beyond your imagination, along with a hidden past that this strange planet holds. As you discover this hidden past, you will ultimately have to confront your own…

AS SEEN ON

Story

You wake up to find that you have crash-landed on a mysterious planet with no memory of anything that happened before. As you explore your new surroundings, you discover a hidden object made of obsidian that emits a ghostly sound.

What the object does and who created it is a mystery, but its discovery plunges you into a perilous journey through the depths of a dangerous and lost world that wants to prevent you from discovering the object’s true purpose.

As you uncover this planet’s long-forgotten past, you’ll end up confronting your own….

Music

The game is accompanied by a haunting and atmospheric original soundtrack by Jeremías Peña. Sometimes subtle, sometimes deeply moving, the music he created sets the tone for the game. You can listen to some of the ambient samples below:
