A cozy time survival roguelite in space. You steer the shippy while the shooting happens automatically. Meet cute NPCs, solve small quests, and fight quirky enemies with satisfying weapons. A shorter experience for people who don't have much time but love playing (and finishing) games.
The core mechanic involves steering a ship through a procedurally-generated, vibrant universe while enemies are automatically shot down. This allows players to focus on navigating the environment and completing quests, creating a relaxed and approachable experience.
A key aspect that sets this game apart is its emphasis on exploration and quests. As players traverse the game world, they encounter NPCs with unique problems that can be solved through mini-objectives. These quests add depth and narrative, encouraging players to interact with the cast of quirky characters and uncover the game's charming story.
The game features a meta-progression system that allows players to unlock permanent upgrades between runs using a currency called "chocolate." This incentivizes repeated playthroughs and provides a sense of progression, ensuring that even failed runs do not feel like a waste of time.
The game offers four distinct spaceships, each with unique abilities and playstyles. Mastering the different ships and discovering how they interact with the game's systems is a significant part of the appeal, as players can experiment and find their preferred approach.
While the combat is largely automated, the game still manages to deliver a sense of satisfying impact through visually impressive effects and audio cues. Players can collect a variety of weapons, ranging from traditional laser cannons to more whimsical options like boomerangs and rainbow blasters, adding a fun and varied combat experience.
