About
Inspired by classic sci-fi movies, Beyond Galaxyland is an intergalactic, 2.5D adventure RPG set among the stars. Step into the sneakers of high-schooler Doug, as he’s whisked away to “Galaxyland”—a zoo-like solar system of planets—on an epic quest to save Earth itself.
An all-new take on the beloved RPG adventures of old, prepare for a journey like no other, skyrocketing through teeming jungles, neon-lit cities, and cybernetic casinos, with each new planet brimming with intriguing characters, fiendish adversaries, and many other surprises.
Accompanied by Doug’s pet guinea pig—the pistol-wielding Boom Boom—and a sentient robot called MartyBot, together you must defend the world against an all-powerful entity known only as “The End,” before it conquers the Universe itself…
No pressure.

Explore a Solar System of Extraordinary Worlds
