Alterworlds: A Low-Poly Galactic Journey to Find Lost Love

A captivating 3-minute demo has dropped for Alterworlds, an upcoming low-poly puzzle game. This interstellar adventure casts you on a quest across the galaxy to reunite with your lost love. The demo showcases a variety of gameplay mechanics, including planetary hopping, obstacle blasting, and manipulating artifacts.

This indie puzzler, with its retro-inspired low-poly, cel-shaded visuals, evokes the artistic style of Moebius, creating a visually appealing and unique aesthetic. The top-down perspective belies the depth of the puzzle gameplay, incorporating jumping, shooting, and object manipulation across diverse planetary environments, from barren moons to vibrant dinosaur-inhabited worlds.
