Your connection with earth is broken in a way you can only receive messages but can't send any.

It's awesome you should read it.\r\n\r\nMade with unity, you will need unity web player. Please don't open multiple instances of the game in same browser. Usually messes up the game.\r\n\r\nUPDATE:\r\n\r\nFriends, sorry i had forgotten to add that game was quite incomplete. I was planning to update it with a post jam version by now but it didn't work out. Please check back again in few days.\r\n\r\nYou can follow us at twitter @super_damage. Thanks for your time and reviews.\r\n\r\nUPDATE:\r\n\r\nWe have just finished the game! I've added a post-compo link above. Please go play it. It's nothing close to compo version. New things are;\r\n\r\n+ real gameplay\r\n+ storytelling\r\n+ levels\r\n+ sfx\r\n+ horror\r\n+ epic adventure\r\n+ rocks\r\n+ space\r\n\r\nUPDATE:\r\n\r\nWe have updated Rockmorse.
