First Contact

About

• A time-loop based puzzle, adventure game inspired by Outer Wilds and Carl Sagan’s Contact.
• Instead of my usual 2 days, now I spent 2.5 weeks on my entry!
• Available on Windows, Mac and Linux!

Details

• You wake up in the middle of nowhere, on a deserted island, without your memories…
• Your curiosity drives you to find out where you are and why…
• If you die, the day restarts, but your new memories remain!
• Time your decisions well, because some locations are only available early on!
• Solve puzzles in a 3D world, collect clues, and find out what’s behind the mistery!

Features

• 3 islands to solve, 10-30 minutes of gameplay!
• Pick up objects, letting you interact with new things!
• Row around the isles in a boat!
• Look at your log (Hotkey: L), see what you’ve discovered so far.

Quality of life features

• Pause the game!
• Settings! You can change the game’s volume or clear your savegame!
• And now that I mentioned it: auto saving!
