for five dollars can't really complain, it does what it sets out to do and doesn't take very long doing it

A $1 game selling for $5. This, by cost per gaming hour, was far more expensive to me than Diablo 4.

It's not bad, meaning that there is a game experience here, and there are a couple points where it gave me a startle. There were a couple graphical touches I thought were excellent. No crashes, which is more than I can say for many games by larger studios.

Upon reflection, Project Proxima fits into the category of 'Tech Demos/Free Games' for me-- it seems like a portfolio piece for a small studio: 'Yes, we can design a small game. Here one is.' Considering how slavishly it copies Iron Lung's presentation and material, it seems like a perfect ad for a porting or total conversion-type job.
I hope the developers get that job, and you set your expectations very modestly. I wish that Steam presented a metric on 'typical hours to complete', that would have helped me evaluate this game pre-purchase.
The bummer is that I'm going to be just a little more careful on my next $5 game purchase.

What if Iron Lung was more lonely. This game knows what it wants to be and it does it without wasting your time. Totally worth it

Fun game :) It's very fairly priced. If you're bored and want a quick horror game to play for a night, this is a good pick!

This is absolute magic. So simple but so immersive. I do hope this takes off and is expanded upon, so much potential and such a killer concept.

very short but interesting adventure. Not scary but definetely interesting. Fly around, scan stuff, look for secrets. This game could use a bit more attention, it's very nice. Except camera controls. it's extremely weird, got used to it in a few minutes.

Solid game for the price. It actually spooked me which I enjoy considering high budget scary games haven't typically scared me. It's very apparent how much love was put into this game. Also the secrets and easter eggs are a major plus. 11/10 recommend!

Length 30min+ (Secrets + Multiple Endings)
At its most simple we are looking at ‘Iron Lung’ in space. You are looking through the universe for inhabitable planets, as you peek your head out your space shuttle to repair the ship and looking into secrets along the way. You will have to repair your shuttle should it take any damage, and perhaps find clues floating in space.
While compared to ‘Iron Lung’ I do not get the claustrophobic over bearing pressure of the sea around me crushing the ship, but the curiosity of what I can see in space closing on to me in the distance, really brings a sense of dread that something is not alright. Each Planet I inspect is as barren of life as the last and you find no clues but the secrets floating within the world.
Great job on hiding the secrets, it was a real challenge finding the red disc. Although I never managed to work out how to get eaten by a black hole.
Overall it was a fun game, and worth it for the price. As a metric of purchase just think do I want ‘Iron Lung’ in Space if yes, then it’s worth the grab.
