SOLAR ANGELS

___________________________________________________________________

THE PREMISE

Sol will soon become a red giant. The solar system has fallen apart, and you, a Solar Angel, must get as far away as possible.

SOLAR ANGELS is a roguelike; death is permanent. You will likely die many times, awakening as a new Solar Angel each attempt. No two lives are the same; new islands, new upgrades, new discoveries.

How far can you make it from Sol in one life?
