About the Story

You have been stuck in ship that's barely adrift, engines down and nothing to do but ramble into the radio... and talk to a star.

Made for the Locus Jam I have had this idea turning in my head for awhile and used this jam to make a proof of concept. I had to rewrite this so so many times. TT-TT Enjoy

Aethers End is a relatively short sci-fi Twine game where you play as an astronaut in deep space, and worst still: in a broken ship. Adrift, with no way to safety, and completely alone… except you might not be? In your final moment, an unlikely being reaches out to you. There is truly no way out, but you might find comfort in the end?

I am very afraid of death, and anything reminding me of my mortality makes me anxious as hell. But this was so nicely written, strangely poetic. The choice of your name and that being is quite a smart nod (which is pointed out in the writing). And the minimalist illustrations are equally creepy and grabbing.

This was neat!
