Fun little game. I wasn't going to play it this year, but it was winning enough awards and it was short enough that I went for it. I guess I can't really talk too much about it without going into spoilers, but the elevator pitchis that it's a first person space adventure game where the world resets every 22 minutes and you have a majora's mask style bombers journal where you're logging everything you find throughout the various planets you visit and figuring out how it's all connected to the greater mystery of why the reset is happening.

You're not really given much direction you just get up and go. The actual controls of playing the game can be a bit rough, especially the spaceship although it can be remedied a bit by the auto pilot.

The actual trophies themselves are mainly doing random things in the universe, most not actually related to the story. Although you do need to get 100% of the ship logs into your journal so you do need to go everywhere and see everything for this platinum.

There is one where you solve the mystery and complete the game on your very first loop starting from a new game. I'd like to meet the person who did that their first time because it's probably impossible without already knowing the exact order of things that need to be done.

Only 3 days left before the year ends running out of time to play 2019 games. I hear a samurai calling my name though.
