Very short space adventure, October 30, 2020

by JimB

This is a very short game, as can be expected being made for a Speed-IF competition. But since you probably die the first time you can enjoy at least a second playthrough to reach a real ending(Spoiler - click to show) - and then play it once more for an alternate ending.
The text is good to read and the text messages that describe the surroundings made me feel like I'm in a hurry to solve the situation.

Overall I had fun playing the game and got more out of it than I expected.
