UNDER A STAR CALLED SUN is a sci-fi bitsy game that explores themes of grief, memory, and the weight of responsibility. The game, created for LIMINAL magazine's GLITCH series, is a poignant and emotional experience that will leave players reflecting on their own lives and relationships.

The soundtrack, Elegy For A Cosmonaut, is a hauntingly beautiful piece that perfectly complements the game's themes and atmosphere. The use of transparent sprites and avatar by room hacks adds a unique visual style to the game that is both nostalgic and modern.

Overall, UNDER A STAR CALLED SUN is a must-play for anyone who enjoys narrative-driven games that explore complex emotions and themes. The game's short length and simple mechanics make it accessible to players of all skill levels, while its powerful storytelling and emotional impact make it a standout experience in the world of indie games.
