Two Selenes in one cycle
Each of you controls a different version of Selene from a different cycle, so it still looks like a lonely time loop, just with backup.
You team up through the Chronosis device found in each biome. The host summons a friend directly or gets matched with another random online player, and the host's progress decides what items can appear during the session. The planet stays hostile, but having someone to split enemy fire with changes how survival feels. You drop into neon bullet patterns, revive logic aside, two guns are simply better than one.
Fast shooting, constant restarts
This is a third-person roguelike shooter built around bullet hell-fuelled combat and relentless movement. You fight ruthless alien enemies, dodge through dense patterns, scavenge alien tech, and manage equipment and resources carefully, because death restarts the cycle.
Every loop shuffles the planet and the items at your disposal, so new combinations push you toward a different strategy each time. You piece together fragments of Selene's memories while the terrain keeps evolving and decaying around you. The atmosphere stays dark and tense, with stark, contrasting environments and a psychological horror edge.
What co-op does not cover
Co-op is online for two players and focused on the main journey.
If your duo likes extras, the Tower is a nearly endless ascending gauntlet for solo play, unlocked with the Icarian Grapnel, focused on combat, score, exclusive items, Scout logs, and unseen story fragments. Think of it as homework you do alone, then brag about later. Suspend Cycle and Photo Mode are part of the package too, for pauses and dramatic Selene portraits.
What should co-op friends know?
Can you play it solo?
Yes. The full cycle through Atropos is playable alone, and some parts are solo-only by design.
Does it support pausing a long run?
Yes, Suspend Cycle is included, which lets you pause a cycle and come back later without losing the run.
