About Morphite
Morphite is a casual atmospheric FPS, set in a low poly stylized universe.
This is the story of Myrah Kale, a young woman whose life takes a sudden turn when a simple mission develops into an epic interstellar journey revealing her mysterious past and relation to a coveted substance called Morphite.
Myrah will voyage to the furthest corners of space and explore uncharted procedurally-generated planets, each with diverse landscapes and teeming with exotic flora and fauna. With the help of a scanner, Myrah will sell biological information for ship, suit and weapon upgrades.
Inside Myrah’s vessel, players will engage in random encounters with real-time space combat, trade with other travelers across the galaxy and navigate outer space with Morphite’s easy-to-use Starmap system.

Features
- Procedurally generated universe: Morphite features tons of generated planets to discover, all with their own flora and fauna. Besides their individual beauty, visiting planets will prove vital for gathering resources, researching creatures, and gaining skills towards strengthening your character.
- Platforming: Morphite will feature platforming elements in order to explore new landscapes and structures. This is designed with the same mindset as other classic platforms: to be fun and intuitive, even within first and third person views.
- Research and exploration: There is a heavy emphasis on discovery. While players are free to battle every creature they find (many of which are hostile), they can optionally choose to simply scan each creature to gain vital data to sell later.
- Planet and spacecraft combat: While discovery is paramount, Morphite will also feature hostile environments, creatures, and boss battles. Combat will take place on planets and also in space during random encounters. Upgrading your weaponry will be essential to surviving.
- Deep single player story: 15 planets are hand crafted and pertain specifically to the plot. These planets will exist for the player to further the story when they are ready. The main storyline is also fully voiced in English.
- Character and ship upgrades: While planetside, players will be able to locate rare scans to craft new suit abilities. Additionally, players can locate shops all over the galaxy to upgrade and augment their power suit, ship, and weapons.
What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
I'm only two hours into this game, but it's currently scratching the "No Man's Sky" itch better than No Man's Sky in some ways - mostly by virtue of having a narrative and non-random upgrades. It's very much a low-polygon game, and lacks NMS' impressive space-to-surface mechanics (and most of the other features, like base-building and your own customisable vehicles), but its gameplay loop is actually more satisfying. Also, it's a fraction of the size on disk.
This is a vibe. It's an audiovisual vibe disguised as an unpolished NMS-alike. Great game to put on while talking with friends on Discord about something completely unrelated. Good to detox after work. It slices, it dices, it treats the symptoms of suburban depression!
First time walkthrough took place during 2018 on iPhone 6s, now 8 years later I finished it on Steam Deck. Beautiful planets, and enemies and gameplay elements. Main event is looking for minerals, scanning plants/minerals/equipment on a Ships and selling, upgrading weapons/ship/suit. Noting too complicated, but time consumption is real. As for glitches. When I acquired an automatic rifle, when I pick it, I couldn’t select another weapons/equipment, and other one – two times when I was making a purchase I was pushed in some room with NPC inside ship, exit to main menu and rejoining fixed it. I finally found for what is this hole in the walls on a planet, after final mission you get Morphite transformation options – so you can go in them and find something. I would give 7/10 for this game. .. You can find some preset in Controls, user-maded for Steam Deck fyi. Some gameplay below https://youtu.be/6kXxEhJM8h0
Potentially pretty nifty, but seemingly abandoned in a barely playable state. In desperate need of some polish, thorough play testing, and rebalancing.
I REALLY hope the developer is reading these reviews because I want to let it be known, I think I HAVE FOUND IT!!! Is the game perfect? No. Does it open the doorway for something that could change history? OH YES!!! The Metroid Prime Clone! Listen, I like the game. I am going to play more of it. I really hope this turns, dare I say, a Metroid killer. I wish the best of luck! I can't wait to continue playing it.
a quirky little adventure, I am slowly growing to appreciate such simple yet complex storytelling all in wonderful low poly goodness.
