A downloadable game for Windows

Description

Dash and float through a celestial sphere that seems strangely lifeless at first.

Form vines and platforms to traverse the sphere's scattered islands and discover its imposing landmarks.  

Activate unfamiliar constructs to revitalize your surroundings, and bring back life with every step.

Game feel

The game focuses on a stress-free journey through an imposing game world and greatly rewards the player's joy of exploration by gradually bringing the initially deserted environment to life visually and acoustically.

Gameplay loop

The core gameplay consists of exploration, traversal and progression.

Players can explore the vast environments with several movement skills at their disposal which can be upgraded during their journey. At first they can teleport towards a target and recall themselves to an earlier location.
