About This Game

Observa is a quiet space-photography game set on a small floating island suspended in endless darkness. You’re alone out here, with nothing but your telescope, a printer, and a silent sky full of things that shouldn’t always be there.

Point your telescope into the void. Search for planets, stars, drifting nebulae, and stranger objects that don’t have names yet. Capture what you find. Print your photos. Build up a gallery of discoveries that feel beautiful at first… and then start to feel like they’re watching back.

This world doesn’t tell you much. There’s no comforting voice guiding you, no busy city nearby, no hint of where “home” even is. Just quiet machinery, distant starlight, and the uneasy feeling that something out there knows exactly where you are. Somewhere in the darkness, something is moving. Something is coming. And you’re the only one who can see it getting closer.

Sell your photos, slowly improve your observatory, and expand what you can reach with your telescope. Not for power, not for glory, but because you need to understand what’s out there… and whether you have time left to escape.

Build your own gallery, fill it with proof of the universe around you, and decide whether your photos are comforting, or evidence of something you were never meant to witness.
