Hello Space
SteamInspired by games like Asteroids or early Zelda games, Hello Space is a 2D action game where you control a spaceship, defeat enemies and overcome deadly traps.
Extend your arsenal by collecting new weapons and technologies for your ship that are required to conquer four different dungeon-like worlds that are all connected by a more open space that comes with its own surprises.
The Enemy: the Insectoids – an artificial hive mind commanding countless armed spacecraft.
No one knows exactly when or how this war began. But one thing is certain: it must end. You are part of the elite – a one-man army – sent on a daring mission: to turn the tide at last by striking directly at the swarm's critical infrastructure.

Explore the vastness of space – an open, mysterious world filled with danger and discovery.
Meet unique characters, complete exciting missions, and uncover hidden secrets. Gather valuable gear and helpful items to aid you in your fight against the menacing Insectoids.

During your mission, you'll uncover advanced technologies that turn you into a more effective fighter and resourceful explorer.
Upgrade your ship with powerful enhancements like the Thrust Drive, Gravitation Core, Nanobots, and more to overcome even the toughest obstacles.



Face the Insectoids – a man-made fleet of deadly war machines seemingly driven by one goal: the annihilation of humanity.
Encounter a wide range of combat ships, each with unique abilities, strengths, and weaknesses – from the seemingly harmless Bees, relying on overwhelming numbers, to the deadly Wasps, equipped with phasers, radioactive bombs, and teleportation technology.

Your mission will take you through key strategic targets—each one a step toward pushing back the Insectoid threat.
Explore treacherous locations filled with enemies, traps, and puzzles: from a mining facility for rare ores, to an intergalactic forge, to the central factory—and ultimately, the Insectoids’ breeding grounds: a dark, mysterious hive deep within enemy territory, the source of their relentless assault and the heart of their swarm.
