Embark on a thrilling journey as you transport a hostile artifact across a precarious balancing platform. With each step, build infrastructure and test experimental systems, all while staying one move ahead of the next crew ready to take your place.
About this game
134 and Counting is an anti-cozy space game about transporting a mysterious artifact that refuses to obey the laws of physics.
You pilot a ship carrying the unstable object on a balancing platform while expanding space infrastructure and manufacturing equipment through corporate factory minigames.
The tools are unreliable, the pressure is constant, and you are still expected to get the job done.
When a crew fails, the mission continues with the next one — and the environment becomes more hostile with every attempt.
Balance the Artifact
The artifact sits on a balancing platform that must be constantly stabilized during flight.
Every turn, collision, or environmental disturbance can push it out of balance — and losing control means losing the ship.
Expand SafeSpace
Dangerous crystals emit unstable energy that disrupts nearby space.
Only ships carrying the artifact can safely approach them.
Build containment platforms around these crystals to suppress their energy and create SafeSpace zones where corporate drones can operate.
Manufacture Equipment
Your equipment is manufactured in corporate factories.
Take control of the production process in short minigames to produce higher-quality FPV shells and improve future production.
Research Experimental Technology
Research centers provide experimental prototypes rather than finished upgrades.
Fly with these unstable systems in real missions to prove they work before they become permanent improvements.
Escalating Hazard
Play it safe and progress steadily, or take bigger risks to gain faster results.
But every failed attempt makes the surrounding space more dangerous for the next crew.
How many crews will it take to finish the mission?

#0. What is this game?
Hi, everyone,I’m a solo developer of this game. Well… almost solo. This is my cat, my idea critic and morale support. She’s kinda strict but fair.This started as a small experiment.I wanted to make a game where you’re doing (at least) two things at once.I liked the moment when you focus on one thing and completely forget about the other - and then boom, you lose.The core idea is simple: you must always balance the object with your right hand while doing the rest of the game.Right now the game is still in development. Some systems exist only in my head, some ideas may change, and I’m actively experimenting with mechanics and tone.If this sounds interesting - feel free to wishlist the game. If not, that’s also fine. I’ll keep building it anyway.Read full article on Community Announcements (dmnkdm)
