About the Game

Explore the planet to repair your rocket!

TINY ASTRONAUTS is a 2D side-scrolling action game where you control a tiny astronaut and explore an unknown planet.

As you travel across the planet, you will collect energy parts needed to repair your rocket. Along the way, you will encounter various terrain features and obstacles. By continuing your exploration, you may discover new routes and hidden areas.

Simple Gravity-Based Action

Press the action button once to throw a Graviton Ball forward, a special ball capable of generating gravity. Press the button again, and gravity will be generated from the ball’s current position.

By carefully timing when you activate gravity after throwing the ball, you may be able to open paths through places that seem impossible to pass at first glance.

Mysterious Gravity-Based Gimmicks

The main character can use the Graviton Ball to pull in various objects. From large rocks to many other objects scattered throughout the planet’s deep caverns, there are plenty of things that can be attracted by gravity.

Use this power skillfully to solve gimmicks and progress through the stage.

Collect Star Fragments and Rocket Parts, Then Bring Them Back

To repair the broken rocket, you will need energy sources called Star Fragments, which are found inside the planet’s caverns, as well as Rocket Parts scattered throughout different areas.

By bringing them back to the broken rocket at your base, the rocket’s repair level will gradually increase.

Expand the Graviton Ball

As the rocket’s repair level increases, new functions will be added to the Graviton Ball.

These upgrades will allow you to absorb new types of objects and progress further through the stage. Unlocking new functions may even reveal new paths in areas you have already visited.
