About

Silent Planet is an exploration-focused, gothic science-fiction Metroidvania rooted in cosmic horror. Explore the claustrophobic corridors of a massive underground complex filled with the remnants of technological and biological horrors created by a dead civilization.

The story takes place in the year 2997. You play as Apranik. Your mission is to travel to the planet Thulcandra in search of a crucial item: the Angel’s Egg, a very ancient artifact believed to be the source of all life in the Universe. You journey through the claustrophobic corridors of a massive underground complex filled with the remnants of technological and biological horrors created by a now dead civilization.

“Flesh and bones writhing and weaving into a turmoil of organic anarchy. And appendages propelling the aberration towards me, as it crawled on an onyx mucus-like substance which itself seemed to possess life on its own.”
