How it feels

A quiet, melancholic caretaking game where you look after the last living creature in a silent, decaying space station.

What players say

Players are split on this incremental game. Many praise its short, emotional story for hitting unexpectedly hard, calling it a moving experience that sticks with you after a few hours. Others criticize the core loop as a slow, boring grind with weak upgrades, and some find the story itself inconsequential or the game unsatisfactory as both a narrative and an incremental.
