About Yury
✦ AI summary
Guide a cosmonaut through a hostile alien planet filled with deadly traps and monsters, using fast reflexes and quick shooting to survive in this retro arcade platformer. Yury flips the script on instant-death classics by letting your suit absorb damage—manage your oxygen and temperature instead while experiencing a fresh blend of nostalgic pixel art, atmospheric chiptune beats, and genuinely challenging action.
Yury is a deliberately retro platform/arcade action game that combines old-school graphics, classic mechanics and challenging gameplay with a sense of sci-fi survival horror atmosphere.

Accompanied by original EDM/chiptune soundtrack, player will control a cosmonaut on a distant and dangerous planet, helping him to avoid intricate traps and get rid of sinister monsters. In-air dodging, fast paced puzzles and intense shooting will keep on the edge of one's seat.
Who said spikes and lava should bring immediate death? Yury is a fresh look on classics! Yury's space-suit lets you quickly jump through the hot flow and gives you some time to crawl to the checkpoint after being hit by sharp edges. But keep an eye on the temperature and oxygen level!
