About the Game

LEO is an action game about a little robot using its two thrusters to fly around and blast through an invasion from the Moon! You'll take on growing waves of enemies as you collect scrap and upgrade your abilities, culminating in a face-off against the enemy leader!

Fundamentally, LEO is a new take on traditional 2D combat - because your weapons are also your means of jetting around, players will find themselves in a dance between attacking and dodging. With practice, you'll find yourself able to weave between attacks and take on huge hordes of enemies, with movement that feels extremely intuitive once mastered.

  • Physics-based movement that puts a new twist on twin-stick action! Weave in and out of danger while dealing destruction of your own!

  • Defeat enemies for scrap, and choose from 1 of 4 random upgrades per level to customize your playstyle!

  • Drop in for a 30-minute run, or play for hours! Test your build-making skills against an ever-escalating endless mode!
