When it comes to indie games, the sky’s the limit since most indie games aren’t beholden to a giant company, and it’s either a small number of people with a passion for creation or a single person with an idea and the drive to see it through. And one of those indie games that looks both beautiful and interesting is PLATONICA SPACE, a psychological space adventure game developed by Kazuhide Oka. The game sees you navigate countless interconnected rooms in search of your lost memories. The game looks both interesting, with its gameplay and premise, and beautiful, with its music and visuals. PLATONICA SPACE is officially launching August 14th on PC via Steam.

 PLATONICA SPACE is a “Psychological space exploration adventure” where you, the player, awaken in an unfamiliar room and leave only to find yourself in another unfamiliar room till you meet a girl and come to realize you have no memories and that the interconnected rooms are built from your memories. With each room built from your memory, you will have to find items and use them to piece together your memories and restore them, such as knives in a kitchen to unlock your memory of cooking. Not all memories will be your own; some of the people trapped in the strange rooms will be, and you will have to sort through the memories and piece together who they belong to in order to uncover the truth of it all. As you fall asleep, the surrounding rooms will shift and change, making each attempt different from the last. Tied to the sleep mechanic, there’s a sleepiness gauge. The more action you take, the gauge will start to fill, and once it’s full, you will fall asleep and may wake up in a new place. You will also lose all items you carry should you sleep, so you will need to plan accordingly. And finally, like you, some girls reside in this space and have also lost their memories. Help them, and they could give hints, but the question remains: should you trust them?

PLATONICA SPACE is a very interesting indie game; it’s a psychological space adventure, so you can’t fully trust what you see and will only uncover the truth through your own actions. It’s also interesting that the world around you will shift once you fall asleep, and that you have to uncover your lost memories makes for some interesting storytelling. If you’re even a little interested, you should check it out. PLATONICA SPACE is an indie game, so go support them. PLATONICA SPACE is officially set to launch on August 14th for PC via Steam.
