About

You play as an astronaut stranded on a hostile alien world after a crash landing. Your goal is to repair your ship while fending off robots, giant flowers, and spectral threats. The game blends real-time action with base defense mechanics as you scavenge resources, upgrade abilities, and manage a roster of quirky creature companions. These pets can be deployed like tactical units to protect your base or assist in combat. Gameplay loops mix exploration, resource management, and strategic defense with a focus on quirky sci-fi humor. The game stands out for its offbeat charm and hybrid mechanics. Adorable yet bizarre creatures add personality while serving practical roles in combat and base defense. Abilities like cloning and teleporting offer creative solutions to challenges. The world features vibrant, surreal environments that shift over time, encouraging replayability. While the 2017 release date means it’s been around a while, its mix of action and strategy remains distinctive for players looking for something outside typical survival loops.

Storyline

You are the strong, determined, and awesomely dashing young astronaut who has crash-landed on a not particularly inviting alien planet. Your ship is in dire need of repairs, and you must roam this lush new world in order to scavenge the resources needed. Prepare to get lost on an exotic and dangerous sci-fi planet! Along the way you will discover adorable pets, but they will only love you if you love them back. Once you gain their affections, they can assist you in defending against stubborn robots, giant evil flowers, and otherworldly ghosts. When these enemies attack - have no fear. Your special abilities (and good looks) can be used in multiple ways to offer protection. From cloning to teleporting, you will adore the whimsy and variety this fast paced, and utterly unique game -- this SOBO -- has to offer! Are you ready to... - discover a wide variety of meticulously crafted, colorful, alien environments? - earn the love of precocious pets, and odd creatures? - heartlessly place and utilize your pets as towers in elaborate defensive schemes? - manage not only a variety of rather essential items, but also mystifying (perhaps even mystical) abilities? - experience virtual environments that actually change with each passing day?
