Astronought
Astronought is Out! 🌑🎉
Hello all! My submission for the Monstrous Desires 2024 Jam: Astronought is out!
While it's a lot different from Mushroom Oasis, a project I'm mostly known for, working on this one was a doozy, especially since I rarely work with sci-fi as a theme.
It's probably got some rough edges and plenty of clunk, but I really just wanted to throw whatever I had into the project for the sake of having fun with it. For the time I had working on it since early October (started writing late September) to its completion in November, it honestly started out as a mess of squiggles in my head and took a bit to sort out the vision that I wanted for it, but I'm kinda happy with how it turned out!
If you intend to play it, here are general warnings. For the full list you can see the game page (with the risk of spoilers):
- screen shaking / sudden loud noises
- flickering/flashing lights
- body horror
- vomit
- violence
I hope you enjoy!
P.S: I also have a Tumblr for sharing content, and a Patreon if you'd like to support me for current and future projects!

OH SO THAT'S WHAT THAT POST MEANT ABOUT AMONG US
Oh my goodness, I loved playing this! The inescapable dread of being trapped on a ship by a smitten, yandere alien who killed everyone we knew was written wonderfully! Wonderful work, Deersphere!!
But seriously, this was so good. I absolutely love your art and writing! Your months of cooking paid off! Spoilers for those who haven't seen it yet, but the idea of a literal sentient suit full of WORMS being enamored with the MC is 90% horrifying, 10% kinda sweet. I loved replaying and going through all the different options!!
