Storyline

Stranded alone on a damaged spaceship, survival seems impossible. Yet, as the ship's resourceful engineer, you utilize scientific drones on board, repurposing them as resource gatherers to mine and salvage the materials surrounding you in the vastness of space. These adaptable drones are also capable of being re-coded to undertake crucial tasks, such as repairing weapons, maintaining life support, and upgrading communications. The ship's artificial intelligence, Ada, is your companion and guide in this daunting journey to reach out to the seemingly infinite expanse of space in hopes of finding a savior. However, the situation grows dire as sinister entities lurk in the interstellar darkness, tracking and hunting you. Your survival hinges on your ingenuity to outmaneuver the ominous cult of VUGSHERYOG and the unspeakable horrors trailing in its wake. The game charts a harrowing tale of a plunge into madness as you grapple with maintaining your sanity in the face of these alien horrors. Your personal journal logs all events, including data uncovered by Ada from the ship's mainframe, serving as a lifeline for your mental well-being. It might even bear testament to your ordeal if your journey ends in disaster.
