Palinurus | The Ocean of Stars | [NaNo2015] [COMPLETE]

Story
A drifting traveler boards a one-man space shuttle destined for Alpha Centauri. This shuttle is piloted by Budapest, an artificial intelligence program designed to serve humanity. She is a hardworking, diligent program, just a little naïve to the ways of the universe, and intensely dedicated to her directive. But when disaster unexpectedly befalls their ship, the two of them are sent careening through uncharted space, left with dire prospects for rescue. Stuck in a floating cockpit drifting through the empty ocean of stars, they have only each other to rely on. Between interesting discoveries both old and new, Budapest quickly develops new traits and quirks beyond her programming. As she attempts to navigate her own troubled seas, the passenger discovers that there is more to this program than what meets the eye.
Characters
The Passenger -- A mysterious drifter who spends his time traveling around the galaxy, looking for work and profit wherever his fate may take him.

Budapest -- A Personal Navigator artificial intelligence created by Titan Transportation Solutions, Budapest is the pilot of the Passenger's coming shuttle flight.

Team
Various members of Watercress Studios (http://www.reddit.com/r/avitus), a team of many developers from many different places who are currently making an original visual novel named "Avitus," have volunteered their time throughout this month to contribute to the development of Palinurus. The full and complete credits will be released as the game is!
Release
Palinurus is due to be released within 24 hours of the making of this post. Yeah, we entered a little late, admittedly, and we've been too horrifyingly busy with development that we haven't had time to do much publicity. Don't fret, though, because things have come along like a dream.

Hype it up, everyone; we hope you'll enjoy what we have to offer for NaNoRenO 2015!

Good luck!
