About This Game

It's not really a game, it's a place where you can just spend some time or look at the sky or the sea or enjoy the stillness of the inside of the lighthouse or the view on the top.

There's not a game length because there are no goals, you can stay as long or as little as you want. There's a day night cycle and each day lasts 8 minutes and it's enough to see everything.

My biggest inspiration for this game was

Mediterranean Voidland

and also this article

It works with Xbox controller on windows, and should work on mac as well. I haven't added support to other controllers for now, because I really wanted to release this. I'll make a new build if I learn and integrate an asset for that. For now you can play with mouse and keyboard or change the input mapping in the config screen.

Sorry for the trouble.
