Crystal Cosmos

Crystal Cosmos is a side-scrolling, color-based space shooter. You match your ship’s color to an enemy’s to destroy it, but switching colors leaves you open to attack, creating a risk-and-reward combat system.

The eight kingdoms

The Crystal Cosmos consists of eight kingdoms, each ruled by a different Gem Lord. They have fought for supremacy for eons. You play as Lord Alabastar, ruler of Alabastion, the Kingdom of Light and Order. After Obsidious, Lord of Darkness and Chaos, invades, Alabastar loses the battle and is shattered into nine pieces; the core narrowly escapes.

You travel through the eight kingdoms to recover the missing pieces, then break down the door of Obsitadel and exact revenge.

Story mode

Story Mode has eight levels, each with its own setting, enemies and boss. The game tracks your performance and scores you at the end of each level. You can collect shards by defeating foes and completing levels, then spend them on upgrades in the item store.

Combat and rewards

The game calls for quick thinking and fast reactions, with frantic boss battles. You can climb the ranks and receive bonus rewards as you progress through the levels.
