About

I interpreted the theme as 'Running, out of space', where by the user is trying to escape a space station.

The game is best played with 2 or more people, only keyboard and mouse is supported.

Gameplay

The game requires 2 or more players. One player is the astronaut ​on the space station, all other players play as ground control support members. The astronaut is faced with a randomly generated map containing puzzles between their start point and the escape pod they must reach. The support team have a top down view of the space station as well as documentation required to solve the puzzles. Players must work together to help the astronaut escape safely.​​

Nice concept! I didn't read the directions on my first try so I was a little bit mystified at the opening menu and first puzzle, but once I got what was going on, I was impressed, although I don't have two people with me to play through it properly.

Seems like a cool game, altho I didn't have any friends to test with, it was pretty hard playing by myself. This kind of reminds me of Keep talking and nobody explodes, but free :yum:
one problem is with controls, that for me if my mouse gets out of game screen it doesn't move anymore so it was hard to control...
but overall if I had friends to play with. I would

Nice game. It is fun to play with a friend. Only the movement felt a little bit strange.

Great looking game! Although I can't rate it fairly because I didn't have anyone to play it with.
