Electronvolt (tech demo)
This distribution contains a tech demo that implements planned visual style and basic gameplay mechanics. There are no puzzles/objectives yet.
NOTE: the project, being too ambitious for a single person, has been discontinued due to many reasons, both technical and personal (lack of motivation over the years, too many challenges to solve). The demo will stay available for download.

Year 2103. Humanity is colonizing nearest star systems. United Space Mission, a colonist organization, is exploring unusual asteroids in Ran system (ε Eridani). They consist of an unknown dense matter and have Earth-like gravity near the surface. USM has connected three asteroids – Midgard, Asgard, Helheim – into a network using space elevators (Artsutanov's elevator). This structure is called Yggdrasil. Most of the work on Yggdrasil is done by robots, so there is no need for permanent residents there. Once a year, a USM engineering team visits the structure to replenish stock of materials, do the checks and install new equipment.
On Yggdrasil there was a mysterious accident that resulted in significant damage to some of the facilities. The main character, survived USM engineer, has to escape the Yggdrasil.
