Feelings it meets
What it is
You are a new astronaut from a small wooden-spaceship programme, setting off to explore a tiny hand-built solar system. Twenty-two minutes later the sun goes supernova and you wake up again at the campfire where you started. Each loop you fly somewhere new, piece together the story of a vanished ancient civilisation and slowly work out what is happening.
Where to find it
Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox (including Game Pass), PlayStation Store and Nintendo eShop. Game Pass and subscription availability rotates.
Before you start
Heads up: Frequent player death and tense scenes.
