story

The story mode of the game is brief, taking around 30 minutes to complete, and revolves around controlling a satellite to navigate and illuminate planetary bodies. Players can pursue a "perfect mission" achievement by visiting each planet only once, adding a layer of challenge to the otherwise simple narrative. The experience is complemented by a lofi soundtrack, which enhances the gameplay but is not essential for achieving game objectives.
- “Controlling a satellite to find (and thus illuminate) the wandering planetary bodies using only its low power directional booster and the much greater gravity slingshot effects drove me to despair; this was particularly true when I was trying to get the final achievement, which only allows each planetary body on each level to be visited once by the satellite, a so-called perfect mission.”
- “Almost like Angry Birds, it makes it easier to try and plot a stable orbit, then the live adjustments can be done to catch other celestial bodies.”
- “The 'story mode' can be completed in less than an hour (took me about 30 minutes maybe?), from then on you can try to get the perfect score for each level (not visiting a planet twice) or just chill out to the lofi background music.”
- “The narrative feels rushed and lacks depth, making it hard to connect with the characters or the plot.”
- “There are interesting concepts introduced, but they are never fully explored, leaving the story feeling incomplete and unsatisfying.”
