Outer

How would you like to go on a spaceventure?

Play as 72H, an adventurer who's exploring the furthest reaches of deep space.

Your goal is to get as far as you can into the depths of space, balancing fuel and money, and researching ship improvements. And, of course, learning more about your surroundings with your trusty scanner, Gert.

Outer is a randomly-generated point-and-click sort of adventure, with lovingly handmade pixel art and lovingly mouth-created sound effects. It's made using Love2D.

Once you've played, share your score! I have literally no idea how high one can score.

Notes

The game was initially experiencing a small bug with the cursor hover code (as mentioned in the comments) but that should be fixed, and my hope is that you will be treated to a bug-free experience. :smiley_cat:

Update on below: the problem wasn't with my file, but with Catalina permissions. You'll need to make sure that you can open app files from anywhere in order to run the game, but the file does work!

~~I'm having lots of difficulty getting a mac .app file working, but I developed this on a mac so rest assured it's coming! In the meantime, mac users who have Love2D on their computers are welcome to use the .love file included on my itch.io page to play.~~
