Heavenly Bodies is a humorous game for one or two players, in which even the simplest of tasks posed on our way are challenged (and laughed at) by the physics of objects, due to the settling of action in space.

Technical aspects

Heavenly Bodies is a fun physics-based game with a cooperation mode in which, by controlling astronauts in a state of weightlessness, we perform missions commissioned to us by earthly employers. 2pt Interactive studio is responsible for the game.

Plot

The action of the game is set in space on a spaceship. Earth employers sent us space to carry out a number of orders with a gradually increasing level of difficulty. When the majority of these tasks would normally be childishly simple, so in case of performing them in the state of weightlessness it looks completely different and requires from us much more work. Fortunately, we can have a companion on the journey, so it should go easier - but are you sure?

Mechanics

Heavenly Bodies is based primarily on specific physics related to being weightless. Both the characters and the objects scattered around the ship behave differently than we are used to on Earth and such basic activities as pushing, pulling, opening or getting from room to room are not as easy as they should be. And we have quite complicated tasks ahead of us in the form of mounting delicate solar panels, conducting research on space flora, assembling massive telescopes, but also many others; all of them require a lot of skill from us.
