V.O.I.D.

About

V.O.I.D. is a side-scrolling action game mixing shooting, platforming, and exploration. You play as Alpha and Omega, two Ploids racing through time to gather sacred stones in eras like feudal Japan, the ice age, and the medieval period. Each level blends combat and platforming as you dodge enemies, solve environmental puzzles, and upgrade abilities to progress. The invaders hunt the same stones, forcing you to stay ahead while figuring out the mystery of their time-disrupting invasion. The game stands out for its retro-inspired design with modern polish. Its varied settings offer distinct visual styles and enemy types, keeping the pace fresh across 20+ levels. Combat feels responsive, balancing bullet-dodging and timed attacks. While the story leans into classic sci-fi tropes, the tight controls and challenging boss fights earn praise from indie platformer fans. Available on PC, Switch, and Android, it’s a portable throwback with a focus on fast-paced action over deep lore.
