About
You have been assigned as an intern to an isolated observatory on Mount Clearveil; Professor Elias was supposed to welcome you, but the observatory is silent… and something is wrong.
In this psychological cosmic horror experience, you manage the observatory during the day and follow the traces of Professor Elias’s forbidden connection with the stars at night.
Old devices, scattered notes, and unfinished experiments await you; as an intern, will you be able to handle the weight of this system?
You collect trash, grow and harvest crops, and try to keep the observatory clean and operational; yet the cursed symbols on the walls remind you that this place was never ordinary.
At first, you cannot understand why keeping the lights on is so important… until you are left alone in the dark.
A path that opens at night leads you beneath the basement and into the buried secrets of the observatory; to uncover them, you must be brave.
You think you are the one observing… but perhaps you are the one being observed.
You are trapped.
Over time, you begin to lose your sense of reality.
Will you be able to escape this observatory, or will you answer the call of the stars?
Life & Shadow: Celestial Call is an experience where calm and fear, science and madness intertwine.

I like very much and it's really scary. Really good for an early game. Good job!

Концепция интересная, но с графикой нужно что-то делать. Она ужасная.
I spent about an hour with the prologue and overall it left a good first impression. The atmosphere is probably the strongest part for me, and the visual style fits the game really well. I also liked the general concept and I’m curious to see how the full game expands on it. With some bug-fix operations, the game will be great.
I installed the game for the first time and it's excellent; I played non-stop for four hours on my very first attempt. I'm eagerly awaiting the full release and wish the developer success.
[h1] 白天捡垃圾、种菜,晚上下地牢,这序章有点东西♥ [/h1] 免费序章做成这样,Immeta Studios还是有点诚意的。白天在山顶天文台搜刮物资规划路线,晚上就得硬着头皮往地下钻,昼夜切换带来的反差感做得很到位。白天你觉得也就那样,天一黑灯光一暗,整个氛围直接变了张脸。 教授这个痴迷星辰的疯学者形象挺有意思,全靠散落的笔记和场景细节慢慢拼凑出来,碎片化叙事用得很克制。地下部分节奏不错,每深入一层都能感受到明显的压迫感递进,不是那种无脑走走廊的敷衍设计。音效是加分项,细碎的脚步声和远处的回音让人头皮发麻,强烈建议戴耳机玩。 缺点是只是个序章,刚进入状态就戛然而止,意犹未尽。个别谜题的提示不太直观,初见容易愣住。不过能做出这个完成度,正式版值得期待。 [h1] 星隐高台夜未明,地渊幽影几重重。♥ [/h1]
i am at day 3 rn and its so far so good i enjoyed the game and never saw any bug it seems enjoyable but maybe it can be scarier than this still i jumped that one jumpscare i will finish and do full review i just finished the game and and i actually liked it but i dont think this is scary at all but narrative is pulling me like in the game :) Pros: enjoyable atmosphere interesting story no bugs at all Cons: low peformance (sometimes fps dropped to 40 50 with my 5070ti) mechanical issues i enjoyed it and looking forward for the final version and complete the rituel.
The game isn't bad, but I saw a lot of room for improvement. The suspense was low, almost non-existent. The daily tasks are logical, but it's unclear where the task is located or how to complete it. It says to clean up the area, but the dirty spots aren't marked. The game needs icons or symbols to guide you and show you where to clean. The 3D visuals were decent, nice, but there were some lags and freezes, and the synchronization was poor.
Gerçekten atmosferi ve ses dizaynı harika bir oyun olmuş. Yerimden zıplamadan bitirmeye çalışacağım, elinize sağlık :)
