A downloadable game for Windows

Built for Watch + Jam 5, and inspired by a waking vision of random assets drifting through space.

Play as a space-pirate (or spacehighwayman, if you will) equipped with a prototype spacevacuum - a device that safely combines the use of targeted stasis fields with a portable black hole to allow your ship to contain cargo many times larger than the ship itself.

Use your spacetorpedos to knock cargo containers free from your targeted spacefreighter, and then escape with the stolen spacegoods before the spacepolice waiting  at the end of the spacehighway clap you in spaceirons.

Currently the only change between the original Watch + Jam 5 submission build and the latest build is the addition of an Invert Look option. This prototype still requires a gamepad to play, but is at least now playable regardless of your preferred inversion.

Please be sure to check the in-game help menu to learn the controls. There is currently no in-game tutorial, but the most important part is to select your destination using the left monitor.
