An unrelenting onslaught of eye-popping visuals, ear bursting soundscapes and mind-melting action makes CYGNI the vanguard for the next generation of shoot-em ups. Outgunned, outmanned and out on your own, plunge into a sky full of hell in a last-ditch battle for survival.
Thanks to everyone who played our Demo during the February 2024 Steam Next Fest and shared their feedback. We have listened and made some changes! To find out more, check out the video below narrated by Game Director, Nareg Kalenderian.

Auto-fire now available as a real-time toggle – you can assign a button in the control’s menu.
Revive/Continue Mechanic – only available for Easy mode:
This will only be available in the easy mode. Players will have three lives per level and will be revived in the same spot instead of restarting the level (at the cost of pickups and score being reset per revive for that stage only). This can be used throughout the game.

Invert function for stick controllers (Mainly for left-handed players):
In the gamepad options menu, the player can toggle the checkbox to invert the stick controllers. This will swap the left and right stick functionality.
