How it feels

A tense and punishing procedural platformer where each run feels unpredictably challenging, set in a bleak sci-fi world with crisp pixel visuals.

What players say

Players praise the gorgeous pixel art and atmosphere, but nearly all warn that MegaSphere has been in early access since 2015 and appears abandoned. The experience is punishing: checkpoints are few so sessions demand hours, the starter weapon is weak against bullet-sponge enemies, and progression is cryptic with little guidance.
