About spaceBOUND

Can your astronauts survive?
Two astronauts have crashed on an asteroid. Their ship is destroyed. Together they must explore an abandoned mining facility in search of an escape. The catch? They share an oxygen tether. If one astronaut dies or the tether breaks, they both die.

Face brutally-difficult puzzles alone or with a friend.
In spaceBOUND, players solve challenging motion and physics-based puzzles while avoiding deadly obstacles in zero-gravity. Delve the depths of the mining facility by yourself, or work with a friend to solve each level’s mysteries and get your astronauts out alive.

Blast off to the past.
spaceBOUND takes players back to the golden era of retro gaming. The game is 16-bit through-and-through, from its artwork and design to the unforgiving puzzle and motion-challenge difficulty.

Features:


  • Solo or Local Co-op gameplay.
  • Hidden collectables, unlockable character skins, and player achievements.
  • Time Trial mode to challenge hardcore players. Compete with others using the online leader-board.
  • Grab a friend! spaceBOUND supports up to two controllers for local co-op play.
  • A steep difficulty that punishes players in new and unexpected ways as they advance. Think and act quickly, or your astronauts may die. Over and over.
  • Five ultra-hard boss levels that put reflexes, skill, and cooperation to the ultimate test.
  • Timeless 16-bit artwork and effects designed to evoke a past era of classic gaming.
  • Progressive puzzles that require learning, adapting, and solving varied challenges in rapid succession.
  • An intense and atmospheric ambient score in the style of classic action and science fiction thrillers.
  • Many, many gruesome ways to die: asteroids; deadly lasers; gears and saws that shred everything in sight; electric ropes; lock-on turrets; pulverising smashers; gravity beams; and other deep space horrors nearly beyond comprehension.

This game is too ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ difficult, and 99% of the time it feels like you won by pure luck. It doesn't help that you are playing with a piece of ♥♥♥♥ friend, known as Rend. He has completely ruined this experience. These words are what he describes the game's experience as: This game has shattered my hope and my pride. I have degraded into a filthy ape man, flinging ♥♥♥♥ at his screen.

This game is like Dark Souls and Super Meat Boy had a couple of babies and tethered them together.

Great game, especially for $5. We finished this years ago, but just now realizing I didn't leave a review. Don't mind the 3k hours of playtime; we left this playing overnight in the office haha. Some of the levels are difficult, but honestly couldn't recommend it enough. Remote play together should also work well with this game.

A hidden gem, for real. If you enjoy brutally difficult couch co-op games, I definitely recommend it!

Can't recommend this. Wanted to play with my GF, but the timing of things is too strict for it to be fun. Repeat the same pretty easy steps over and over again to die to the last pretty unfair obstacle? Meh.

This game is amazing I was playing this because I was bored with my friend on the bus and It was amazing ! One thing I wish though is that there was more to it more achivements and maybe even a hint ability.
