The story in "Space Fuss" revolves around a humorous premise where the player, a homeless character, must reclaim their stolen cardboard box from an evil space overlord cat. While the initial narrative is engaging, the overall story is considered light and lacks depth, with minimal closure by the end. Despite this, many players find the quirky characters and fun gameplay make the experience enjoyable, even if the story itself is not the main focus.
- “Where Space Fuss differs from the typical is with the story itself—you’re homeless, chilling in your box when some evil space overlord cat decides that should be his house and steals your box from you.”
- “Of course, you must chase after your home and embark on a space mission of fighting this overlord heathen cat and his minions!”
- “The story is loads of fun and the characters look hilarious.”
- “The story, besides that opening narrative, doesn’t really exist, I guess?”
- “There is a resolution in the end, though it’s not to say you can expect much closure from a story based on chasing your cardboard box home down.”
- “The story is fairly light, and not particularly well translated to English, but the main thing here is the gameplay which is pretty good, so it is fairly easy to recommend this one.”
