Introduction

Odyssey is a story-driven space adventure for solo and multiplayer. Search for a new home for humanity while protecting your exploration ship. Scientists onboard carry Earth's last hope—its biodiversity. The fate of life itself is in your hands.

Step into the role of an explorer and take on various tasks aboard a spaceship, all set to an uplifting musical soundscape. Navigate asteroid fields, locate and use essential tools, and protect your ship from cosmic dangers. At the end of each session, review your performance and improve your personal or social score by playing again. This multi-modal experience blends gameplay with learning, featuring a voice-acted narrative and vibrant audio to share fascinating facts about space.

Up to three explorers can embark on a journey through a post-apocalyptic universe, where Earth is no longer habitable. As a crew member aboard a massive space station, you join a team of scientists searching for a new home. The station houses isolated ecosystem bubbles, preserving Earth's last surviving plants and animals. Your mission: protect these fragile ecosystems and uncover the answers that could save humanity. The future is in your hands.

Controls

The experience is playable on both a standard PC monitor and in Virtual Reality (tested with Oculus Rift, Windows Mixed Reality, and HTC Vive). An in-game option allows you to switch between the two modes seamlessly.

For the best experience, headphones are highly recommended, as the game features a rich, bass-heavy musical soundscape. While fully functional in both modes, movement controls and user interactions may vary slightly between standard and VR gameplay.
