Ephemeris
A downloadable game for Windows
Ephemeris is a distant world populated only by memories. Fragments of a life story float like scattered particles, lost in the dreamscape. Explore the abstract world to discover meaning in the darkness and light. What brought you here? Where will you end up, and how do you get there? Is there still time?
Part first-person exploration, part text adventure, Ephemeris features a distinctive idiosyncratic art style and a lo-fi ambient-synth soundtrack, which combine with the ultra-minimal gameplay mechanic to conjure a dream-like atmosphere and a sense of slowly unfolding mystery.

This was really engaging and interesting. The more I learned about the story the more I wanted to keep going. I liked that it was told in bits and pieces, having you fill in the blanks.
Thanks for the kind words! It's funny cos I recently started working on my next game after a long time focusing on music (and the day job) - it's nice to think some people out there are still discovering the last one, it was a real labour of love for sure.
