Stranded

About

This game was made during an 8-hour game jam in January 2026. The theme was Progress Bars and/or Escape, and we tried to get a blend of these themes.

Your spaceship has crashed onto a hostile alien planet. Maneuver your team to recover all lost ship parts and bring them together to rebuild your ship before the planet floods.

Controls

WASD/Arrows to move your crew.

Bump into boils to assign a worker to uncover a ship piece.

Bump into a revealed ship piece to assign two workers to drag it to your building site.

Time/progression is based on when you move. It ticks up each time you move across the landscape. You can track your progress by referencing the loading bar at the top of the screen.

Thanks! We had a lot of fun making it ðŸ™Œ

Your music really made the vibe!

The control is very intuitive but it is better if theres a movement point display to make it clearer how many move until doom?

Thanks for playing, and your feedback!! At the top of the screen, you can see a progress bar that fills up as you make more moves. When it reaches the end, it is game over. In hindsight, I'd definitely want it to stand out more!
