Astronite is a pixel art metroidvania that follows a stranded space traveler exploring an alien world in search of a way home, gradually unlocking new abilities that open up previously inaccessible areas.

Exploration is paired with combat against a variety of creatures and bosses native to the planet, with a retro inspired art style and soundtrack reinforcing the genre's classic feel. Interconnected map design rewards backtracking as new powers reveal secrets and shortcuts throughout the world.
