How it feels

A fast-paced, punishing 2D platformer where dying resets progress but teaches you how to survive alien worlds and unravel a mystery.

What players say

Players say Astral Flux is a short and challenging platformer with a tight oxygen timer that forces fast play. Many finish in under two hours, finding little incentive to replay. The movement takes getting used to but feels good once mastered, though the inability to rebind keys frustrates some.
