About

Mysterious Space was originally created for the 2014 7-Day Rogue-Like competition, but has received many updates since! It features many familiar rogue-like elements - including potions, equipment, and procedurally-generated worlds - but is ultimately a side-scrolling action shooter.

Originally made for 7DRL 2014, Mysterious Space tasks you with delving deep into the ZZ-Omega sector to recover an important piece of information, and to return with that information in one piece.

To get there, you'll have to stop at planets along the way to find much-needed fuel.

Arm yourself with procedurally-generated weapons, armors, and shields to defeat the enemies that stand in your way.

Features

Local co-op, up to five players
Unlockable ships and ship upgrades
"Alien Artifacts" and "Advanced Technology", analogous to the potions and scrolls of traditional rogue-likes: does the Red Alien Artifact repair armor this game? Or will it scramble your sensors for 10 seconds?
Procedurally-generated planets, including forest worlds, desert worlds, ice worlds, lava worlds, and others
Procedurally-generated weapons, shields, armor, and accessories to equip yourself with
