Description
About This Game
Landing is just the beginning.
The engine is spluttering.
Fuel is running low.
Gravity, however, makes no effort whatsoever.
Welcome to Until somewhere, a challenging arcade game where every landing counts. Take control of your descent module, land with precision, collect upgrades for your ship… then head off a little further each time.
Because, at the end of the day, the best way to discover what lies in space is to survive it.
Simple gameplay… until it isn’t.
The concept is easy to grasp:
Fire up the thrusters.
Manage your fuel.
Avoid the mountains.
Try not to blow up.
Right from the start, the first landings are already tricky.
Then the platforms get smaller.
The terrain becomes more unpredictable.
Fuel is running low.
And every successful landing brings that little sense of satisfaction that makes you want to try ‘just one more planet’.
Repair, upgrade, try again.
Your ship isn’t ready for such a long journey.
After each expedition, collect parts and choose how to upgrade your module.
More thrust?
Greater stability?
A larger fuel tank?
Or perhaps a slightly more forgiving landing gear to desperately try and make things a bit easier?
Each improvement allows you to go a little further than the last.
A light-hearted adventure, but not without its mysteries.
You keep moving forward.
Ever further.
Planet after planet.
Why?
Good question.
Let’s just say that turning back was never really part of the plan.
Lina is with you.
Well…
She’s trying.
Between bits of piloting advice, a few well-aimed remarks and one or two minor disasters she refuses to take responsibility for, she’ll be your only company on the journey.
The silence of space is lovely.
But it’s even lovelier when someone’s there to comment on your crashes.
Features
Arcade-style landing gameplay that’s easy to pick up but challenging to master.
Gradually upgrade your ship to reach ever more distant areas.
Explore a series of planets generated as you progress.
Manage your thrust, speed and fuel to succeed in every approach.
Become the best. Or at least, one of the best...
A co-pilot who never misses an opportunity to comment on your exploits… or your mistakes.
A gameplay experience that blends challenge, exploration and lively banter.
Quick to pick up, hard to put down.
