A shooting star's survival game

Faraway is built around a randomly-generated arcade-puzzle structure with a demanding challenge: the shooting star designs constellations in order to stay alive. Its minimalistic presentation is paired with realtime visuals and interactive music, while the intended play pattern ranges from short sessions to longer stretches of play.

The launch trailer's supplied text captures the star's determination in the first person: “I am a shooting star! A spark meant to shine and vanish in a blink. But I will travel! I will mark my trail in every firmament. I will live to see the universe.”

The game is presented as an immersive minimalistic experience centered on discovery, replay, and long-term mastery. It was created single-handedly by game designer, creative coder, and musician Steph Thirion, who is also identified as the creator of Eliss.

Faraway has launched on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
