Perihelion

Play Now on Itch!


Perihelion is a monster-building game where you play as Dysnomia, the moon-daughter of Eris. You're trying to grow the toughest, smartest, and scariest creatures possible before you reach perihelion, your closest approach to Earth.

Optimize your build order to find the most interesting ways to grow your tiny creatures!

We built Perihelion from the ground up over the last several days in lua using the LOVE framework. Unfortunately we ran out of time to finish implementing scoring, cut-scenes, and audio, but we hope you'll enjoy the intricate gameplay and lovely atmosphere (or lovely vacuum as the case may be).
