While there are moments of frustration in its platforming, and the puzzles are relatively unsophisticated, the locations of Planet Alpha will most certainly stick with you. It doesn't matter why you're there, or what it is you're looking for.

Planet Alpha creates an amazing atmosphere thanks to its visual and audio design. This side-scrolling platformer features stealth and puzzle elements that can be difficult and require a lot of quick thinking. The platforming works well, but there can be inconsistencies on ledges that you can grab on to. Planet Alpha is all about letting its alien world and life immerse you all while trying to survive its dangers.
