About Planetoid Pioneers

Welcome to Planetoid Pioneers, a cooperative sci-fi Physicsvania where kooky old astronauts fall over themselves with QWOP-like action to explore the Asteroid Belt beyond Mars. It’s been built on the unique Crush2D physics engine and can be played on your couch with or against your friends in seamless pick-up-and-play Co-Op and PvP action.

You’ll trip over rocks, lose limbs and get your stuff stolen while fleeing from terrifying enemies that make you forget you’re walking right into the next trap. Come up with alternate creative solutions to the challenges thrown at you, or get your hands dirty and build some of your own Planetoids in the editors that are now all included in the standard edition, too. Laugh while others attempt to survive your carefully constructed carnage!
If you choose to purchase the Contributor Edition today, you will also get access to the official Contributor Community Discord server, where you can collaborate and share content with creatively-minded people, and also chat directly with the developers.

A novelty of a game, but that's as far as this game is. Disappointed where this ended up, considering Cortex Command was a very fun game.

Planetoid Pioneers, developed and published by Data Realms, is a bold and eccentric physics-based exploration game that defies conventional genre boundaries. It presents itself as part sandbox, part Metroidvania, and part engineering experiment, where chaos, creativity, and curiosity coexist in equal measure. Set on a series of small planetoids floating in space, the game places the player in the role of a stranded astronaut who must explore alien worlds, scavenge materials, and use advanced tools to construct machines and contraptions to survive and escape. What makes Planetoid Pioneers stand out is not its narrative but its sheer dedication to player experimentation. The physics engine, built from the ground up using Data Realms’ proprietary Crush2D technology, is the true star here, driving every interaction and object behavior with an unpredictable yet believable sense of weight, impact, and collapse. The gameplay thrives on discovery and emergent moments rather than structured objectives. Players explore circular planetoids where gravity bends around each world, allowing traversal in every direction. Nearly every object can be scanned and disassembled into materials or revers…

I think that this game is underrated. I see many people dislike this game for a lot of reasons. Sure, this game is pretty laggy and doesn't have much content, but I still enjoy it. I love the physics based puzzles and combat, plus the art style is cool. If you are a fan of Cortex Command, then I can reccomend this game.
