About this game
A forgotten world. A lost expedition. A past waiting to be uncovered.
You wake up on an unknown planet with no memory of how you got there. Your hearing is damaged, your crew has vanished, and the wreckage of your ship is the only place that still feels familiar.
Guided by Astra, an alien creature with the ability of revealing a hidden layer of the world, your search for answers takes an unexpected turn. As your memories begin to return, so do unsettling questions.
What happened to the crew?
What was the true purpose of the mission?
Who or what is Astra?
And why does every answer seem to point back to you?
Discover the planet rules
Every discovery changes the way you see the world.
Plants, creatures and natural phenomena all follow consistent rules. By observing, experimenting and connecting their behaviors, you will find multiple ways to resolve environmental challenges and discover new routes.
Your useful PDA records every discovery, building a growing field journal you can revisit at any time. Expand it further by installing new app cartridges throughout your journey.
Learn the ecosystem sounds
Bound by an enigmatic connection, your alien companion shares its unique abilities, allowing you to perceive, learn and reproduce the hidden sounds of the world around you.
Use these sounds to interact with the ecosystem, influence its wildlife and discover new ways to progress as you uncover the planet's hidden language.
Recover the past
Investigate the remains of the crash, recover lost memories and piece together the events that led to your expedition's fate.
Return to your shattered starship between expeditions. As vital systems come back online, forgotten sections become accessible once more, gradually transforming the wreck into your home base.
Explore at your own pace
Take your time to explore diverse biomes filled with life, wonder and unexpected encounters. Wander freely and revisit familiar places whenever you choose. What will you notice the second time around?
Let curiosity lead the way as you overcome dangerous situations through understanding instead of direct confrontation.

Tokyo Game Show Recap
Hello everyone! Today, we would like to look back at some of the exciting days we had at the Tokyo Game Show.Tokyo Game ShowWe went to Japan in the Tokyo Game Show event to show Traces from Auralis!Thanks to the initiative of Games From Spain, we went to a pre-event at Kanda Myojin for networking between the Spanish and Japanese video game industries. It has been a productive event, with a lot of enthusiasm, we were surprised by the amount of people eager to meet us and have the occasion to learn more about Auralis. In this event, we had many discussions about new opportunities for future collaborations, many of these "thirty-minute" reunions ended extending for hours. It has been a tight schedule (but totally worth it). Not only that, but for the main event, the Tokyo Game Show, we were selected at Indie 80! While we were networking with many publishers, people were able to play Auralis and the responses were positive. We are grateful for the Japanese audience for playing our game even when they were presented with the language barrier, ありがとう!Latest flyer with the new poster, our stand at Indie 80, and our cool devs!Game updatesWe've been implementing the feedback received from players to improve some mechanics, while adding new ones. Recording sounds is now more intuitive and representative of what they do.Thanks to the help of the mysterious cat-companion, our protagonist can capture and manipulate sounds. That’s all for now, see you soon this week at SAGA Barcelona Game Fest!Read full article on Community Announcements (Loadstar)
