Back Home is an experimental atmospheric game. It is the story of a ship lost in space, and the dialogue between its Captain and his navigation AI 'Navi'. It is a tribute to Interstellar, and an experiment creating a deep atmosphere with a short time constraints. It's also my first time creating voice over and I enjoyed it a little too much :D
Thanks for playing :-)

Hi there. Nice atmosphere you achieved. Went through twice but seemed to be same on second. Not much for player to do once experienced it. Really nice sounds and graphics.
This sound in the background is cool.Like the voice acting very much... nice piece of art!
Nice atmosphere which uses some interesting shaders. Neat ++
I like this! Amusing story (if a bit dark!). Looks really great too.
"woooooouuuuuuu" lol. Too bad there's only 1 possible ending, or I'm missing something? Anyways, some of the narrative was quite funny. :)
Really impressive! The narration and art are really cool. A perfect little experience.
Nice entry, the visuals are wonderful!
Also, the narrative was cool!
Kardfogú of Creative Sectors, out.
Lost in space and time! The visual is spectacular! I love how you guys managed to curve/distort the black hole's sphere, creates for an atmospheric sensation. Also, great job on the narrative, you guys sounded like you had a good time with voice acting! My only gripe is the game's interaction with the player, there is literally almost none. - LeMix
Awesome game! Good narrative! The pauses between Navi's words could be a tiny bit smaller sometimes.
You did really well with the voice over. What audio tools did you use for the voice over?
Regarding the number of comments this game is absolutely underrated!
Graphics were very impressive, and audio was beautiful. The player has little impact on the story though, regardless of whether you go into the black hole or not you get the same dialogue and the same ending.
Needs more content and more player impact.
Very nice overall mood, graphics and sounds very well done
Really enjoyed this, very nice atmosphere and simplistic gameplay. Keep up the good work.
Inspired by Interstellar I see. Impress what you were able to accomplish in such a short period of time!

PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Enjoyed the Narrative, especially "Ooooooheeeewwwiiii" haha Can get repetitive fast :)
