Unravel an Alien Mystery in Alien Video Game Scientist!

An alien spacecraft has arrived, carrying a strange cargo: a video game! As the world's foremost Video Game Scientist, you're tasked with deciphering this extraterrestrial puzzle.

Prepare for a unique blend of puzzle solving, collectathon elements, and optional speedrunning challenges.

Gameplay: Navigate, Collect, Conquer!

Each level in Alien Video Game Scientist presents a captivating navigation puzzle. Find the exit, gather essential and optional objects (some cleverly hidden!), and discover multiple paths to success. These bite-sized, open-ended levels offer a satisfying blend of exploration and strategic thinking. Whether you prefer a casual stroll or a lightning-fast run, the choice is yours! Find fast paths to unlock extra rewards, or simply enjoy a relaxed playthrough.

Speedrunning: Embrace the Challenge!

While Alien Video Game Scientist offers a chill and casual experience, dedicated players can push their skills to the limit with optional speedrunning challenges. Beat the in-game time trials or compete on the Steam Leaderboards for each level. Sharpen your skills, plan your routes, and become a speedrunning master!

Key Features:

• Not a precision platformer - Focus on strategy and exploration.
• Quick respawns - Death is just a minor setback with rapid returns to user-specified checkpoints.
• Mazes with clues - Follow the subtle hints to stay on the right path (or wander aimlessly, if you dare!).
• Mute-able soundtrack - Control the audio experience; silence the music at any time (though we doubt you'll want to!).
• Versatile controls - Plays perfectly with mouse or gamepad, thanks to Steam Input compatibility.
• Steam Deck Verified - Enjoy the game on the go!
• 38 Hand-Crafted Levels - Each level offers a unique and engaging experience.

Gameplay Philosophy: Choice and Efficiency

Alien Video Game Scientist embraces the core principles of a good collectathon. Choose the optimal path, decide which collectibles to prioritize, and determine your desired level of efficiency. Our levels are designed with multiple solutions in mind, encouraging experimentation and discovery. There is no single best path, but the most efficient route remains to be found!

Tired of sprawling open-world levels? Our levels are comprised of smaller, bite-sized floating platforms designed for short, engaging experiences. Completing a level should rarely exceed five minutes. Concentrate on puzzle-solving, collecting items, and speedrunning.

Get to the end of the level to move on or search for the hidden skip level option! Collect all items and complete levels quickly for extra challenges. Our speedrun challenges are designed for all moderately motivated and moderately agile players with strategic planning, knowledge of level layout, and some retries. Prioritize thinking and planning instead of relying on split-second timing! Consider which regions to visit first and strategically place your respawn points to optimize your run.
