Aarni's space game prototype
A downloadable game
This is an early prototype. Missing a lot of stuff.
System requirements:
- 486, preferably 66MHz or faster
- Doesn't use FPU
- 8MB RAM
- Sound Blaster 16 for music and sounds
I recommend turning off v-sync when running on real hardware.

This reset my nervous system. I literally want a device that only runs this, to calm me down when I'm overwhelmed. Such a beautiful atmosphere.
Really cool prototype. Looks great, nice atmosphere, controls well. Would be awesome to see this developed into a full version.
it's uncanny how smooth some of these new dos games are. great start! looking forward to shooting down some pre-rendered baddies
Great atmosphere! And the tumbling asteroids look great too.
