About the Game

Explore a mysterious maze as the enigmatic FLUCTUOID, a lifeform that can change size.

Use your ability to shrink and grow at will to explore 9 different themed worlds, solving puzzles to explore further into the strange place.

Gameplay Features

  • Change size with the press of a button. When you're big you're heavy and slow but when you're small you're light and speedy
  • Slip through cracks in the maze by shrinking as you jump towards them
  • Grow big to sink deep into watery pools and explore hidden areas
  • Find a safe path between dangerous obstacles as time slows down the smaller you get

Let the sounds relax you on your journey

  • FLUCTUOID starts easy but gets progressively more difficult
  • Don't let the challenge get to you, just take a breath and enjoy the soothing music
  • Try to collect all the mysterious cubes and change the ending you get
