LORE:

You are one of the Warriors Fighting for Space and Reality itself in this VR Puzzle/shooter platformer where you need to create your own Space bubbles in the Nothingness of the Void  by using a special pistol. But be careful! Your pistol can run out of Space in it and then you need to wait for it to recharge space!  

Your enemy: The void, the absolute nothingness voided of all existence. 

Wizards and Scientist alike knew the void was going to attack our universe seeking to wipe space-time and existence.  So they made especial exoskeleton suits, weapons and tools to fight the void. You are one of the warriors that they trained for this mission.

Your mission: Recover Dimensional Crystals from enemy "Voiderritory" and use them to bring existence back to those voided areas of the Universe.

GAMEPLAY Description: 

Using your SpacePistol, you can create Spheres of Existence in the Void territory, however these "SpaceSpheres" can only exist for a short amount of time, so you need to create and teleport to the next one before the one you currently are shrinks out of existence.  The pistol that creates space needs time to recharge after you have fired, so manage your space correctly, avoid making the Pistol run out of space, and remain calm while the SpaceSphere you currently are gets smaller and smaller leaving you no room inside it and making you create another one. 

Make sure to recover the most amount of Dimensional Crystals that you can, as Headquarters need them desperately to keep fighting the Void.
