How it feels

A nostalgic pixel-art action-adventure that blends exploration and crafting with a sci-fi atmosphere and adjustable difficulty.

What players say

Players say this is a short, linear metroidvania focused on combat with repetitive room clearing. Bosses are simple with only one attack and easy to cheese. It takes about 2 to 3 hours to complete and is seen as a downgrade from its predecessor, Cosmos Bit.
