There are several weapons in the game, but only one can be carried at a time. She has swift movement that incorporates running, jumping, dashing with a brief window of invincibility, a powerful melee attack and a single ranged weapon.
There are also several metroidvania elements as Selene gradually gets access to new abilities, one of the few game elements that are carried over between runs.Įxploring a biome eventually leads to a boss encounter where multi-tier fights borrow heavily from bullet hell games, a developer trademark, as Selene has to dodge a large number of projectiles. Each run takes place in a unique take on the biome with reshuffled rooms, randomized enemies and items. There are also several story fragments at certain points, through animated cut-scenes or interactive sequences played from a first-person view with elements of horror and mystery. Death is permanent and an intended part of the gameplay, as the knowledge from runs is used to push deeper into the alien world. The game consists of six biomes, each with a distinct biotechnological theme, environment and enemies. The game is played from a behind view as Selene traverses the environments and fights extraterrestrial entities. After dying once she discovers she is resurrected right away and is stuck in a time loop, waking up near her a ship and having to start over all again.
The hostile planet has a dense environment as she looks for a way back. It is set on the planet Atropos where the ASTRA Corporation explorer Selene Vassos crash lands her space ship Helios, disobeying orders as she chases after a signal she dubs White Shadow.
