SteamAbout SPACEL
SPACEL is a roguelite space shooter set in a universe that is born, ages, and dies around you. Every run drops you into a procedurally drawn cosmos and asks one thing: how long can you last? Clear waves, cash your kills in at the Werkstatt — the between-wave workshop — and stack an ever-nastier build until the three-phase final boss, REVENANT, comes to end your run. Alone, against a friend, or with up to four players in online co-op.
A cosmos that actually lives
This is no static starfield. In SPACEL's living-universe simulation, stars age and go supernova, collapsing into black holes and neutron stars. Nebulae condense into brand-new stars. Gravity bends your bullets and your ship. Comets and asteroids tear across the battlefield — and in co-op, those asteroids double as cover. Every hazard is also an opportunity.
Build a run, then break it
Five tiers of pain
Clear the game on NORMAL and SCHWER opens up. Then BRUTAL. Then MEISTER. Then LEGENDE. Every tier you conquer stacks a permanent bonus onto that ship — so the grind always pays forward. Beat REVENANT on all five and you have truly mastered SPACEL.
Solo, versus, or four-player co-op
Pure signal, no filler
Almost everything you see is drawn in code, and almost everything you hear is synthesized at runtime — so SPACEL is tiny to download, runs on modest hardware, and has a look and a sound entirely its own. Local and online leaderboards keep the score-chasers honest. Wishlist SPACEL now to be notified the moment the demo and the full release go live.
