Caretaker Retribution

Welcome to the Jolton Mission Memorial!
Long ago two brave pioneers set out into the expanse to find out why the stars were going out in the universe, apart from a single cryptic message that led to the discovery of the Alpha Device, they were never heard of again.
Years later what happened to them was finally discovered. After finding their way into a Star Killer, Commander Andy Carolan watched as his friend and colleague Commander Alan Purdy was killed trying to disable it. Witnessing this he dug in deeper and eventually found a way to destroy it.
Thanks to the tireless work of the Jolton Mission Memorial foundation you can now experience what Commander Andy Carolan went through inside a specifically designed for room-scale VR adventure. Guided by the recovered log files you can go through each of the sections of the Star Killer - exploring and ultimately disabling them. Be careful though, the Star Killer has a very potent defense mechanism that killed Commander Purdy, make sure it doesn’t kill you.
In one hand you have the hand held thruster. Point it in the direction you want to go and hold the trigger. In the other hand you have the plasma rifle that Commander Andy Carolan used to disable the Star Killer. Point at what you want to shoot, press and hold the trigger. Watch out though, the rifle only has a limited charge but don’t worry it quickly regains it. Keep an eye on your shield too – once it’s drained you die and are dumped back into the memorial room.
To get started in the Star Killer find one of the numbered sections in the memorial room, point your plasma rifle at the number and hold the trigger to go into that section. Once inside the Star Killer locate the nodes and use the rifle to disable them. The nodes take time and a lot of plasma energy to disable – there’s also more than one node to disable too. If you feel scared at any point you can return to the memorial room by pressing the menu buttons on both controllers at the same time.
Good luck, and if you have any questions then find a member of staff who will be more than happy to help you.
