LD50 — Delay the inevitable (1)

Cold and Alone by David York 2022-04-06T18:31:21Z ♥ 2

I can't believe I had such a unique experience with this game!

First off, it really sucks to crash in a remote planet. What would I do? well, I try to find scraps and upgrade things! I don't know how to drive the rover in the hexagon space, I waste half of my day learning how to drive. Then, I find scraps and I upgrade things! I upgrade the rover, so I can explore more. A few days later, things look better. But the days go colder and colder. At some point I find an alien crystal. The crystal gives me hope! Maybe I can turn my rover into a spaceship? Heh, so naive! Of course I am going to die here, cold and alone. But why do I upgrade things? At some point I give up, and chose "rest" and "go to sleep". Another day goes by, and the next day is even colder. And, all the sudden, it hits me. Here in this planet, I realize that I upgrade things because I am human! It makes no sense, I know I'm going to die anyways ... but I rather die trying! I raise! I go back to upgrading and exploring, I embrace my human nature. A few days later, of course, I died. But I died with a smile.

Nice job Dave!
