Omega Station
A downloadable game for Windows
Hey!
This is a small project created for my thesis.
I am currently writing an academic paper to answer if Visual Cues help players' Flow State within Metroidvania games, and the purpose of Omega Station is to gather data from players to support the research.
If you came across this game and got a chance to play it, THANK YOU!
Please, fill this questionnaire based on your personal experience, even if you didn't win the game.
(The QR code below also takes you to the questionnaire)
Any feedback would be much appreciate it!
Note that no personal information is retained by the questionnaire, so no need to worry!
The Objective:
Omega Station has been invaded.
Find your equipment.
Get all the stars before the invaders to win the game!
Core Gameplay Loop
Explore → Find and hack stations → Find your equipment → Find all stars
Main Mechanics
Player Equipment (when available)
- Double Jump - Additional jump midair.
- Dash - Quick leap that allows the character to travel a small distance depending on the direction they are facing.
- Wall Destruction - Certain walls can be destroyed by interacting with them.
Enemies
- Automatic turrets - Constantly shoots projectiles at the player. Careful, some of them are faster than others.
- Soldiers - Melee space-swordmen. Fast and deadly, Dark Souls-style hitboxes.
Future Goals
- More levels
- Player attacks

- More Sfx’s for different elements of the level
- Camera panning
- Room transitions

- Full control support on all menus
Known Bugs
With your help, this list could be longer!
- Sometimes the player will get damaged even when the Soldiers didn't make contact
- Turrets shoot at the player even if there is a wall in front. No damage is applied
- Resolution and Scale adjustment break the game's window if the used monitor doesn't support the selected settings
