@KokamoJoe12 ай бұрын
I like it as-is because I don't need to see what it actually looks like. Its still wearing its 'camouflage.' If I see flesh, I'm going to immediately ask 'How does this thing eat enough to have the energy to open up like this?' Better remain outside our comprehension where we can slot it someplace we can still suspend disbelief.

Since it unfold its inside out into space, it would make sense that the inside isn't fleshy and vulnerable to space. I like the idea of a tentacle monster, that can flip side like a glove.

I agree. An alien the mass of a planet (or at least a portion of it) is far scarier imo given the literal weight of the threat and leaves the audience pondering if it can find and consume other planets as well.

I had no idea that the first creature was dead (explains why there's no heartbeat), and that the other ones were eggs. I, and a lot of other people, assumed that it was the same monster stalking you like the fish monster from Iron Lung (there's even a moment like in Iron Lung where you can briefly glimpse the monster in the background behind a planet which then immediately disappears the next time you photograph it). The idea that we're seeing more of its species, with one of them being dead and the other ones being _eggs_ of all things is such an awesome idea (the egg idea is also terrifying and brings up so many creepy implications and possibilities about its species)! Though, I think it's much creepier if it was just the one monster stalking you across the galaxy over the course of several years with no other lifeforms in sight and we're just supposed to assume that there might be more of its kind.

Honestly, I thought the eggs were some quantum planet creature (like the quantum moon in Outer Wilds) that followed you around, learning what you are and how to lure you, before disguising itself as a habitable planet in the final system. I wasn't quite sure what to make of the first, dead one, but I at least figured that it wasn't alive, so it got the point across well. Overall, the game was very fun and definitely worth my money. I've seen some people who were disappointed by the (admittedly) short playtime, and while I wish I had more of this game, I can't be upset. The ideas and themes were executed so perfectly, with simple mechanics and controls that while intuitive, were just difficult enough to start fat-fingering in the tense moments. Everything in Voyager-19 is extremely intentional, and I think that at just and hour or two of playtime, its worth a lot more than 10 hours of fluff and extra padding. Even though I could return the game, I don't want to. I might not play it again any time soon, but I would rather support a developer executing on cool ideas to the utmost of his ability, than a Triple A team's overlord who wants to inflate their numbers to justify his paycheck. 10/10 - Go buy the cheapest drinks at Starbucks with my $3.

A single astronaut being hunted by a planet-sized predator for several years may seem like a huge waste of time because of how little sustenance it can gain out of it. But a terrifying theory that can explain this is that the "thing" that caught the astronaut does not kill him, but probe information out of him so it can find out where the astronaut's home planet is, then make its way there to devour the entire population and ecosystem.

Considering the vastness of a space environment, I wonder if there could be anything to find off the beaten path of your obvious nav points in this game?

I have made some ideas on this creature's anatomy. Once I make a drawing/diagram, I'll find some way to get it across. I love the idea of a giant 'living planet', which is the nickname I made for this cutesy(not) little(definitely not) innocent(REALLY not) animal. Since I've been making up sci-fi stories for years, I made a little movie in my head about a ship that evaded the tongue, but flew inside anyway, to explore it, and I made some things up about its behaviour/etc, and how it camoufladges itself to look like a planet. Etc, etc, etc. Great idea! Makes for some awesome space chases. (You're flying on a mission, and a planet is chasing you at high speed. You have no idea how a planet is moving so fast until it opens its flaps, and nabs you)

I think this was really cool my only complaint is i found the power draining thing to take away from the horror, the way i did things (navigate, thruster, camera, then audio) made it so i only got to see the last three or four images of the planet consuming the vessel, which was still awesome and terrifying but I didn't get to see the design, I think instead of the planet opening up being on a time based thing, it should just start when the first photo is taken and then have it continually play the animation. That way it's impossible to miss that awesome design, even still I was able to understand the planet was opening up and sucking me in, I just was unable to see it unwrap which would've been terrifying. Regardless, still an amazing game and 100% going to recommend it to some friends. 9/10, truly terrifying, when the planets started having heartbeats and me struggling to read the logs and trying to piece everything together. Realizing these things mimic planets and what happened to the other crew was terrifying, I enjoyed the pacing, when I went to the last planet it was set up in a way where I knew the end was near, all the logs and encounters had been leading up to this and now it was time to face my fate. Magnificent
