Mayak is a hand-painted 2D adventure/VN about a signal from a star — the prime numbers 3571 -> 3559 -> 3557. All the numbers are prime, and they are counting down. You play as a young astronomer who starts studying the signal. But you’re not alone. Nina is there with you, and so is Isaac the cat. And if you’re not alone, there’s still a chance to uncover the mystery of the star.

The atmosphere is cozy, romantic, mysterious, and only occasionally dark. There are also some dumb jokes :) And a cute cat.

Every frame is hand-drawn, and the game is being made by a solo developer who’s a scientist by profession — and a total space geek.
