Heavenly Bodies

Wrangle the hands and arms of a 1970s space cosmonaut and push, pull and twist your way through an increasingly precarious range of physically simulated stellar scenarios, where without gravity, nothing is still, nothing is secure, and nothing is simple.

Hey everyone! Alex and Josh here, the devs on Heavenly Bodies. We hope you’ve been well since the last time we made an update on here :) We have an exciting one today for all of you. Remember when we said about a year ago that we were working on more content? We’re so happy to finally reveal what that content is – our DLC, Cleanup, coming on July 26th! [previewyoutube=ujhK-yekCL0;full][/previewyoutube] We’ve been working hard on this DLC for a good while now. It’s given us an opportunity to prototype and implement mechanics we’d always wanted to make but didn’t find a home in the original game. The DLC has also given us a chance to develop a larger scale level and change up how the new gameplay is structured. Expect a brand new, huge semi-open level split across 7 days; a new Piloted Manoeuvring Unit (PMU) Vehicle; new tools and gadgets including magnetic attractors, drills, and more; and new challenging gameplay mechanics! A large challenge with developing it has been finding the balance between the bigger scale of the new level and pacing the introduction of new items and mechanics. There are still lots of things those of you who have played the base game will be familiar with, but there are also lots of new exciting things for you to learn and discover as you progress. It was a delicate balancing act to find a logical place for all of this across several hours of new content. And we mean *hours* – Cleanup will be anywhere from 3 to 5 hours long: the same as the base game itself! The DLC on its own is priced at $7.99 USD; if this will be your first time playing Heavenly Bodies, the base game and the DLC together are priced at $25 USD. We’re really excited for you to play this. It’s our way of thanking you for all the incredibly kind feedback you’ve given this tiny 2-person developer duo. Thank you, thank you, thank you. We’ll update you again when the DLC comes out on the 26th of July.
