Perihelion: Voyages

  • One button
  • Physics
  • Space

Ten voyages to the centre of the sky, with one button. Let go too early or too late and your comet burns up.

About

Your comet orbits a star while you hold the button. Let go and it flies off; reach the ring around the next star to keep going. If you miss, you burn up.

There are ten voyages. Later ones add aurora currents, constellations, wormholes, relay beacons and debris belts, which all change how the comet moves. At the end you start a new sky with new colours.

Stardust buys four upgrades: thrust, gravity, sight and halo. There are also standalone puzzles in the Orrery, and an atlas of what you've found.
