A downloadable game

Something Beautiful is a game about isolation, hard work, the inevitability of death, and above all, hope. Join our protagonist as she fights against the odds to terraform planet PS-GJ24 and with any luck, bring about something beautiful.

This project was written in C# and uses a novel method to display full color images within a console window to accentuate this short adventure in terraforming.

This is my first game, and it is absolutely certain to have some bugs, but I'm proud to present it to you all!

Install instructions

Just unzip and run Something Beautiful.exe

Requirements

Windows .NET 8.0 or above

720p resolution or higher (This can be a bit finnicky, I still need to fix scaling).

Notes

Because this is in a console, resizing the window will break it (and likely crash the game), so I'd recommend leaving the window alone once it launches!

The game currently does not save. This will change in the future.
