Objective
You are an astronaut adrift in space. Find anchor points, fire your tether to lock on, and explore the universe. Stay tethered — the void is unforgiving.

The Tether
Aim at a glowing anchor object — the ISS, orbital buoys, satellites. Your crosshair pulses purple when a target is in range. Fire to lock on. The tether line keeps you from drifting. Release it to move freely, but don't stay untethered too long.
Your Suit
Suit Integrity
Damaged by micrometeorites, solar radiation, and alien contact. Reaches 0% → mission over.
O2 Level
Drains slowly while untethered. Refills when anchored. Reaches 0% → 60 seconds to find help.
Drift Timer
Every second untethered the timer climbs. After 2 minutes adrift the music swells, your HUD turns red, and oxygen drains faster. Find an anchor before it's too late.
Threats
DebrisMicrometeorite showers damage your suit.
Solar FlareRadiation in inner solar system zones.
UAPUnknown phenomenon scrambles your navigation.
Black HoleGravitational pull increases near Zone 5.
Scoring
Score is based on distance traveled, threats survived, and zones reached. Your best run is saved to the leaderboard.
