A game about fear of the unknown. A year ago, the Moon was sent violently flying off course by a catastrophic explosion, depriving Earth of its steady stream of resources.

A game about fear of the unknown. A year ago, the Moon was sent violently flying off course by a catastrophic explosion, depriving Earth of its steady stream of resources. Less importantly, the two maintenance workers on there when the explosion occurred have been stranded ever since. It's not so bad, honestly. The Heart provides for everything, a practically infinite source that gives them water, food, and powers their satellite as they wait with ever dwindling hopes for rescue. Really, it's boring, but there's no reason to stress out so long as- The Heart has stopped. Read less

This sci-fi visual novel offers a nice satisfying narrative focused on two characters stranded in a space station attached to the moon. There's a bit more to it than that, of course, but the focused simplicity and small scale of that setup are to the game's benefit.

The main sci-fi plot and the more intimate character story at its heart are both interesting and thematically intertwined in a neat way. It manages a subtle and effective story about trans identity, while also weaving compelling romantic tension throughout.

Probably my favorite thing about it is the art, which is this really nice and colorful style that has a bit of a timeless retro feel to it. All of the CG scenes looked great, and otherwise the game has a cool, immersive atmosphere.

The game is free, and I'd estimate it could be fully experienced in 2-4 hours depending on reading speed, so if it sounds interesting, check it out here.
