About the Game

PLEIADES ZERO

Somewhere in the Pleiades cluster, a traveler named Beiling sets out across seven stars, each ruled by one of the Seven Sisters. To reach the seventh and final star is to reach the truth of the universe itself — a truth that will unmake everything Beiling believes about their own reality.

Pleiades Zero is a 2D maze-puzzle platformer built around movement, timing, and momentum. Every surface is a foothold: floors, walls, and ceilings all reset your jump, turning each chamber into a three-dimensional puzzle you solve with your feet. Armed with a laser whip to strike and a laser shield to survive, you'll fight, climb, and think your way toward the light of the seventh sister.

Features

  • Surface-jump traversal — bounce off any surface you touch, floors, walls, and ceilings alike, to thread mazes no ordinary jump could reach

  • Laser whip & laser shield — a two-button combat rhythm of attack and defense

  • Maze-puzzle platforming — navigation, timing, and spatial puzzles woven into every level

  • Seven stars, seven sisters — a journey through the Pleiades toward a truth that rewrites reality

  • A striking retro look — chunky pixel art beneath vast, minimalist alien skies

Seven sisters stand between Beiling and the truth. How far will you climb to see it?

Controls

  • A / D — Move left / right

  • W — Jump (touch any surface to reset your jump — yes, ceilings too)
