    I just finished this and I can say it has a permanent place in my heart now. This is a tender little story - well paced and well delivered. Congratulations on a job well done!
    I'll keep my eyes open for a sequel...

    I've finished the game with a 82 or so completion percentage. I love the story and the gameplay. Hunting stars and planets was funnier than I thought.

    Now I would like to find the items I have missed and that seems to be quite hard.

    Hey thanks! And congrats, sounds like you found a few of the hidden ones already. Finding the triggers is usually the difficult bit, so try searching around the rooms when they become accessible!

    Just finished playing through a second run so I could try to discover all the sub missions but ended up with only 94.87% completion. Looks like I'll have to play it a third time! On another note, I really enjoyed both runs and the soundtrack was amazing. Can't wait to see what you guys come up with next!

    Help on new content for upcoming update

    Hey everyone! So we've had feedback coming from everywhere for the past two days, and we are deeply grateful for that! This prompted us to start thinking about what we can offer in the v1.1 update, and we came up with a few ideas. But the decision turns out to be kinda tough, so we thought we'd sample some opinions on TouchArcade. Here's some of our best proposals:

    1. An additional chapter right after the ending

    This is probably the most frequently suggested option. But it's also the most time consuming

    2. More side missions throughout the game

    We've been getting this from a lot of more hardcore players

    3. More achievements to compete on with your friends

    This can be done more quickly, but appeals to less people

    So what you think?

    Not really important, but it's bugging me - are the planet temperatures supposed to be measured in Kelvin? The most habitable planets Seem to be about 300C at the moment.

    Oh, great little game, by the way. #

    Hello I bought the game too! :3
    The option number 1 pleaseeeeeeeeee! This game is one of the few that managed to move me to tears. It always left me wondering what really happened to the doctor with all those hints lying around. I'd totally wait even if it is time consuming for the update :)))) time < quality :3

    also

    I've finished the game with around 97 percent. I'm a bit confused where those two last unknown side missions are located though :C.. I've been looking for those two unknown side missions listed in zone 1 for an hour now..

    So, I loved the game the whole way through and am very excited for 1.1 but I can't find the second to last object in zone 1. I know the last one is Earth because I have beat the game before. I have searched the entire ship for a clue, I even have the achievement for exploring everything on the ship. I was wondering if I could at least have a hint toward the room the clue is in. Thanks for the great game!

    Wow, we're flattered by your dedication! Thank you very much for your support! By the way, if you enjoyed the soundtrack, you can grab it on Bandcamp here, or on iTunes at a later date, if you prefer that!

    Ahhhhh yes, you actually found a deadly typo in the game which is fixed and ready in the next update, it is indeed suppose to be measured in Kelvin. We are all prepared to be raged by space fans from all over the world....until next week when it's corrected at least.


    Also a big thank you for all of the suggestions from everyone!
    I think I'll run the poll for a bit and get back to you guys tomorrow, it's kinda late here and it's been a nerve wrecking launch week for us.

    Is there any chance the soundtrack will be available on SoundCloud as well? I found Triodust there! If not, I'll probably wait until it's released on iTunes :)

    We've actually been ask a lot about this recently, currently it is only unlockable with the cat and the dog, and we are thinking of ways to improve it in the upcoming patch :)


    Currently we are only planning it to release on Bandcamp and iTunes, stay tuned for our update!
    Just out of curiosity, which track is your favorite?

    hee hee, at least the real spoilers hasn't been revealed yet ;)

    It sounds strange, but we're really grateful to hear all of you who tell us your tears were involved in the playthrough of OPUS, it was definitely something beyond our expectation. so uh...with utmost sincerity, thank you for crying? :eek:

    As for the last two missions, as mentioned above, we've been getting quite a few inquiries about that, currently it can only be unlocked through the cat and dog. And we'll come up with a solution in the upcoming patch

    My interpretation of the story

    This whole post is going to contain a few SPOILERS and while I am sure most of you here have completed the game, you have been warned.

    Okay, so this is just my interpretation of the story of this game, here it goes.

    After decades of exploration and augmentation to make everyone the best they can be, sacrificing the diversity that kept them alive, humans have explored many galaxies, leaving their past behind. After several large outbreaks of diseases, humanity realizes that there genes are similar enough that one could wipe everyone out. While most think that the answer is to augment everyone differently, a few look to the stars and believe of another way, Earth. After being to far from any suitable planets or mineral rich asteroids for so long, and their methods of communication have become useless, but some believe Earth still exists. After several missions with less funding each time, and Lisa (doctor) catches what appears to be a cold or other harmless, yet distracting disease from solar flare radiation, Lisa is forced to use the escape pod to get treatment. While Makoto and Lisa could have both gone, I prefer this version because it shows that Makoto still cares and will risk his life for the mission. Soon after, the whole ship shuts down. While the ship is shut down, Lisa goes to the hospital where it appears by the symptoms that it is a cold. The disease spreads and develops lethal properties, killing off all of the connected, modified, humanity. Then the rest of the game plays out.

    Here is some random stuff that doesn't really fit at any particular point in the story.
    Lisa (star) was our sun, which has now grown to a red giant (the size of which could help us find out when the story takes place) (EDIT: the sun is not bigger, it is actually smaller, assuming it is in km like everything else in the game, but the temperature has risen so we can use that instead)
    Earth was luckily dislocated from its orbit and was able to avoid the sun's expansion
    The Hetmis Galaxy is the Mily way (that should be obvious from my previous statements)
    One of the planets you find is using the description and picture of the moon (I named it Lunael because why not) maybe the item that dislocated Earth was a third body, maybe Venus entering the Earth-Moon system, causing both the Earth and moon to move.
    How do we really know there are humans on Earth? Maybe they all appeared to die of war and that is why nobody remembers. Maybe all they wifi find on Earth are some small shrubs and some grass.

    I guess we will have to just wait for 1.1 to find out

    WHOA nice theory you have there! I don't have the full answer for you (it's locked in our writer's head), but you're fairly close!

    Your conclusion about LISA is interesting! So if LISA is the sun, where do you think the other planets fit in?

    So uh, our writer asked me to post this here.
    Clearly he's trying to get something across so, make what you will of it :p


    We'd also still like to hear your thoughts on the upcoming update. If any of the options tickle your fancy, please let us know! Here's the post
