Starfall - Demo

Do you sometimes feel like you might be living in a simulation?

Step into Starfall (Demo Chapter 1 of 4), a mixed reality experience crafted by a solo developer.

You awaken in space, returning from “the simulation” with heavy memory loss as you arrive at your next destination: Planet Querthos. As you explore surreal planets, you must uncover who you really are, the purpose behind the recon mission, and how human connection brings meaning to life.

This 25-minute journey is the first chapter in a story of resilience, creativity, and connection, inspired by mental health challenges and dreams of alternate realities. It requires a 2.5m x 2.5m free floor area to prevent boundary collisions and a relaxed environment to fully immerse yourself in its music and visuals.

Developer’s Note:

What started as an escape from my unhelpful thoughts, then transformed into a cosmic adventure that fuelled my life with motivation. From building mixed reality effects in Unity to recording music and sounds, every detail kept me going. I feel deeply grateful for my family, friends, and this beautiful Earth.

If you enjoy this first chapter please share it and leave a review. I have an exciting story that follows—filled with planets, asteroids, music, and flashbacks. For bugs, suggestions or to help build the rest of the experience, reach out directly to mauro.waveengines@gmail.com

To life—may our shared humanity endure and inspire for eternity.
