WARNING: THIS GAME CONTAINS FLASHING LIGHTS. PROCEED RESPONSIBLY!

A thousand leagues beneath the ocean of a foreign planet, you find yourself trapped inside a ship with something humanity has never seen before. It was only meant to be a short trip. How could it have ended this way? 

You're the only one left. You know what you have to do.

Only one question remains - can you do it before the server shuts down?


Thanks for checking out Obsoletion! This is a 10 minute sci-fi horror narrative with an odd, on-brand twist! This game is designed to be played all at once, only once. It was made by a single dev in just a few days for the 2025 Stop Killing Games Community Jam. The theme: Limited Lifetime. Check out some of the other entries here!

If you enjoyed Obsoletion, consider checking out Divine Omen! It's a fantasy horror visual novel also featuring Obsoletion's protagonist, Avan! The entirety of Chapter 1 is free to play on Steam and here on itch.io :-) 

If you're a fan of otome games, you can also check out my latest work with re.d20, Lucidity - an entry for the 2025 Otome and Josei Jams here on itch.io!

For such a short game the atmosphere really drags you in, the feeling of dread is written beautifully. It's a simple short game that showcases the "obsoletion" of games. (see what I did there) Amazing work as always!
