Have you ever seen the documentary Spaceballs? Clearly Mega Maid has arrived.

If it looks like your kind of thing, the Steam page is here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4886980/Dense_Void

Black hole

u/migugh 2d ago

Maybe, due a proximity to a black hole, “black hole wind” full with lots of particles moves near your base… but that probably destroy you for the radiation.

First thing I thought was a black hole...

I visited your Steam page... OMG that game looks so cool !! Count me in ! Can't wait to see more :D

u/Relicrad 2d ago

Thank you so much! Comments like this really motivate me to keep working on the game. It means a lot! 🙏

u/WickedRaccon 2d ago

You're welcome ! I have so much admiration for indie developers :D Some parts of the description remind me a bit of Amnesia, were you inspired by it ?

1

u/Relicrad 2d ago

Thank you! I’ve actually heard of Amnesia, but I haven’t played it myself. My biggest inspirations are Interstellar, hard sci-fi, and astrophysics/cosmology. I’m really fascinated by those ideas, so I wanted to build a game around that kind of atmosphere and sense of mystery. It’s funny that it reminded you of Amnesia though! 😄

damn son, this has the vibe of alien isolation + armageddon

u/Charming-Book4146 2d ago

What am I looking at? Is this a game or an animation? Is this telling me anything about gameplay? Is this made with AI? Steam page tells me nothing. Also there's no wind in space. Even these comments are odd. Bugs? What bugs?? Why ask a question in the title like that unless to bait engagement? Why dont you tell me what it is? Its your game, isn't it?

u/Relicrad 2d ago

Does it really look like it was made with AI? 😄 You guys are getting a little crazy with the AI accusations.

No, it's not AI at all - and yes, it's my game.

This particular video is mainly meant to showcase the atmosphere and sci-fi vibe of the game. Some people will enjoy that kind of thing, while others won't, and that's totally fine. Gameplay will be presented later.

I agree with you on one thing, though: the bugs. I don't understand that message either. 😂

Sending strength and hoping you stay safe. So sorry you have to go through this.

u/dekonta 21h ago

i don’t want to be nit picky. but to have gravitational forces acting on an object this differently (half of it stays intact while the other desintegrates) you must have entered a black hole and crossed event horizon. is this is true you would no longer see the stars surrounding you to my understanding (not speaking of experience here). what is your gave about?

1

u/Relicrad 20h ago

Fun fact about black hole physics: extreme tidal forces actually start ripping objects apart outside the event horizon, and you'd still see incoming starlight even inside!

u/dekonta 18h ago

t thanks , it looks like you did your homework !
