how in the actual hell did this game make my GTX 1650's temperature rise to 71C(base is usually 30-35C) despite having very simplistic graphics
please, please please optimize the game! even Buckshot Roulette runs with better temps than this!(max 50C)
game and concept's really cool and I bought it on launch, though I only played it for ~2 minutes(3 planets into the first mission) before I got worried, as no other indie game(or game I own, for that matter) has made my gpu heat up this much and I didn't wanna risk severe overheating
game ran just fine at 60fps otherwise
if you update and optimise the game I'll happily change the review to something actually related to the game instead of me complaining about temperature issues
sorry :(
Title screen GPU temperatures. Jumped to 46C right on launch, with rising temperatures. Image is not indicative of temperatures provided in the comment.
Voyager-19 has high "fun density": for its little content, it is of high quality. The experience was atmospheric, and I loved it. Though a bit of a slow burner at first, the plot twist and climax are memorable -- I jumped out of my seat at least twice, and Voyager-19 my eyes wide open and my jaw agape at the end.
Absolutely worth $4.00 USD for its ~30 minutes of fun.
Game is very interesting and fun up to where you have very little power, making it so for every action that'd take 5 seconds previously, it now takes 15, to set up everything right. Iron Lung, that definitely inspired this game, had the mechanic of actually piloting the ship through a tight map, and that made the 'just doing your job waiting for something to happen' part way more fun than just pressing buttons like in this game. One other thing is that the things you'd take pictures of in Iron Lung were actually kind of interesting, big teeth and bones, something I didn't feel with voyager-19 as most of them were just normal planets with eerie sounds. This is just my opinion though, sorry if this seems harsh, this game is very polished and has a really good concept. Hope this helps!
Great game Miziziziz! I've been following the devlogs and was looking forward to picking this up as soon as it was available.
One minor feedback point: The screen noise by mission 4 makes it very very hard to read text at all. I know it's used for effect but potentially if the noise could be dampened around text somehow? Or maybe some other effect to portray decay. I hope this helps!

someone else mentioned it was maxing gpu and running at 2500fps, I'm going to add a vsync option today and can check if that fixes it
Good news, your fix worked! My GPU isn't screaming in agony anymore.
In the future, please consider adding vsync(or a frame limiter) by default to your 3D titles.
Thank you so much!!! :D

Isn't the point of the noise to make it hard to read the text? Isn't that why it's there
In the description it says "Struggle to see as pixels die from interstellar radiation"
i think thats literally the point if you want to read the text you can decrypt the one you havent read sooner in the game
