Faraway
A successor to the 2009 cult hit Eliss, Faraway is about a shooting star charting the cosmos while chasing high scores and vibing out to a soundtrack that reminds me of FTL: Faster Than Light. The whole game is operated with a single button input as you use gravity wells to slingshot your way around celestial bodies. “Let me teach you something about infinity,” says the game’s creator. It’s meant to be infinitely replayable like Tetris: simple on the surface but full of lasting depth.
