About Pixelum
Pixelum is an innovative sandbox survival game made up entirely from interactive pixels, open to the players for exploration and all sorts of different interactions, combining fully destructible environment and survival/building elements.
Based on a handcrafted C++ engine, Pixelum offers you unlimited possibilities such as vast world canvas and advanced physics. Here, pixels are not just about the graphics - every pixel in a special multilayered canvas has its own function and can be interacted in one way or another.
Pushing forward the 2D survival sandbox genre, Pixelum brings you deeper immersion with game environment.
Survive as long as you can in Survival mode.

It’s experimental, it’s unique, and it’s fun2 found this helpful
very good game.1 found this helpful
It is definitely something to be worked on. Rather similar to terraria, however just simply worse mechanics and a buggy game in general I will recommend it as literally nobody has ever played this game, so yeah. like a 5/10 possible to play i think.1 found this helpful
The world is monotonous, the controls are inconvenient, and features like physics and survival are not fully developed.
Игра Pixelum — это настоящее погружение в мир ретро-пиксельной графики, где каждый пиксель продуман до мелочей. С первых минут она окутывает атмосферой старой школы, напоминая о временах, когда игры были простыми, но чертовски увлекательными. Управление отзывчивое, а механики, хоть и не блещут новизной, выполнены на высочайшем уровне. Поначалу может показаться, что это очередной клон, но стоит провести в Pixelum пару часов, и становится ясно — здесь есть душа. Сюжет, хоть и не самый оригинальный, подается интересно, а персонажи вызывают симпатию. Особо радует музыкальное сопровождение — оно идеально дополняет визуальный ряд и создает неповторимое настроение. Если вы цените ностальгию, любите сложные, но честные испытания и не против провести вечер, вспоминая золотую эру видеоигр, то Pixelum — это то, что вам нужно. Эта игра — глоток свежего воздуха для тех, кто устал от однотипных AAA-проектов.
feels like some kids side project and not a game
