[ THE CHALLENGE ]

Created for GMTK Jam 2026. The theme is COUNTDOWN.

You are trapped in the gravity well of a massive black hole. Your life support is a literal countdown. Moving fights the pull, but burns your seconds away faster. Collect Stardust, buy permanent upgrades, and build the infrastructure needed to escape the Event Horizon.

[ CONTROLS ]

• WASD / Arrows: Thrust (Consumes extra time!)
• B: Open Stardust Shop
• ESC: Quit the Shop

Developed in a few hours over 4 days. First Game Jam ever for me... It was a fun experience having a deadline and building from scrapes I had thanks to some courses and tinkering while learning.

I would've loved to add more content, such as respawn structures to save some distance between runs, enemies, obstacles, etc... But we all know that we should preserve ourselves from scope-kreep...
