You're the only one on shift at the observatory. Monitor signals, fix system failures, handle multiple alerts as things begin to spiral out of control. Come for the absurd cows, stay for the soundtrack. Each shift lasts 15 minutes and is designed to complete in a single intense session (30-60min).
The Observatory Incident
SteamComplete The Observatory Incident to unlock a special Observatory-themed UI in Cursor.exe. I've always loved connecting worlds, and this is the beginning of a universe.
Cursor.exe is currently in development and is not available to wishlist or purchase just yet.
You're a worker in an observatory just trying to get through your shift.
In The Observatory Incident, you monitor a failing system and keep a professional log of what you see through the telescope.
Anomalies get logged automatically by the terminal so you can just focus on keeping everything from collapsing.
As alerts trigger, hit the button as quick as possible before it times out. You can repair up to 5 times, but mistakes stack quickly. Simple enough, right?
About the developer:
Built solo, late nights and early mornings. Just figuring it out as I go.
If you decide to check my game out, thank you. I mean that with all of my heart.
