A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

Time to make the stars align

After the previous intern seriously messed up the telescope, it is now your job as the new intern to fix the captures in post!

Align the projections so they look right, and maybe get that internship extended!

A submission for the Acerola Jam 0

This game was made for the Acerola Game Jam 0 with the theme "Aberration", between February 28th 2024 and March 14th 2024. For the source and credits, check out the git-repo, or view the credits in-game!

Since this is a jam-game, it's a bit rough around the edges, so please keep that in mind!

First time-playing notice

How to play: The goal of the game is to align the projections so they are completely white in the reference window. For the control-scheme, press the "escape" key when in a level!

Resizing of there reference view: You can resize the reference view by dragging at the borders of the grey background (the cursor should change when you hover over the border). Please note that when you resize the game-window, the reference-view might become really large, or really small.

Lag spikes and performance hiccups: When playing the game for the first time, the engine will compile all the shaders resulting in large lag spikes. On subsequent sessions this should not happen anymore!

A note on level 5 (the spheres): Because the red axis is perfectly aligned with the center, it is impossible to see the rotation, please make sure to not rotate the red axis in that level!
