Spend Some Time With SOLUS!

A minimal adventure in space, Solus is a short story of loneliness, life, and sacrifice.  Found this on the internets today, a touching animated short in the spirit of Wall-E interpreted as a side-scrolling video game. Creator Zac Dixon says he wanted to " tell an adventure story, inspired by classic 2D side-scrollers. I wanted to create a simple character that never spoke, and develop a connection between the audience and the hero. I’m a huge sci-fi fan (Interstellar included!), and wanted to build a beautiful, expansive universe so that people would want to join in on the adventure."

Check out this story of a lone rocket searching the universe for something and all of the billions upon billions of stars it travels by in order to find it. All without a single word being spoke. Kinda cool, yo.

P.S: David Bowie has written and preformed science fiction centered stories in many forms, often his exploratory expeditions fueled in the seventies by massive amounts of an alien substance know simply as "cocaine." Hoover up that story HERE!
