Travelling Spacer (demo)
TRAVELLING SPACER
(Now with Joypad support!)
THE YEAR: 3000+. THE MISSION: SURVIVAL. THE PILOT: YOU.
Earth is a ghost story. For a thousand years, humanity has drifted through the cold, unforgiving void in search of Glorus III. But evolution doesn't wait for a planet. You are a SPACER, a new breed of human forged in zero-G, pulse-pounding vacuum. Your DNA has shifted. You can no longer survive planet-side conditions, but you can feel quantum fields.

BATTLE FOR THE STARS!
The Androids that the planet-born built to serve them have turned, casting a lethal blockade across the stars. Now, you’re caught in the crossfire of an intergalactic war. This time it's personal, however. They have the one person who matters. You have the fastest reflexes in the galaxy. It’s time to settle the score.

UPGRADE. OUTRUN. OVERPOWER.
Visit strange alien worlds and race your spaceships in this exciting 2D retro arcade racing game. Order your friend and robot companion, Lucas, to deliver high-stakes cargo and help fund your ultimate machine. Every race is a gamble. Every jump is a risk. Will you build the fastest ship in the universe and break the blockade, or will you become just another piece of cosmic debris?

GAMEPLAY FEATURES
Check out these MEGA-FEATURES:
- THE ULTIMATE COLLECT-A-THON! Amass a massive fleet of hyper-detailed star-fighters! Don't just fly 'em, build 'em! Scavenge rare parts and fuse them together to create the ultimate custom speed-demon.
- TURBO-CHARGED TACTICAL RACING! Race through treacherous tracks filled with lethal hazards! Whether you crave heavy-armor tanking or lightning-fast handling, your loadout determines your destiny in this high-octane, neuron-blasting explosion of pure 16-bit adrenaline! 24 Tracks available in the demo, 120 coming to the full game! Now THAT'S retro power.

- LOVECRAFTIAN LEGENDS! Race to save your soulmate and impress the Ancient Old Ones in a high-stakes story that spans the dark corners of the mythos. Apparently Cthulhu really likes pilots who know how to drift. Who knew?
- PET THE INTERGALACTIC KITTY! Feed "Fizzle" the Cat some space-salmon and get rewarded! A happy cat means secret scrap and hidden prizes.
- TOTAL VISUAL CONTROL! Are you a RETRO-REBEL? Crank up the scanlines, static, and low-bit grit for that authentic vintage vibe. Or, flip the switch for a slick, clean finish!
