Project Solar is an open-world puzzle adventure game with online and couch co-op, where you and a friend play as R.A.Y, a robot with a damaged memory core, and P.I.P, a small but resourceful drone. Set in a vibrant solar punk world, you’ll navigate through lush, green environments filled with remnants of advanced technology that harmonize with nature.
The game focuses on solving intricate puzzles scattered throughout the world, which will help you uncover important information about your surroundings and the events that have shaped this unique landscape. As R.A.Y and P.I.P, you'll explore an expansive, open world that encourages curiosity and discovery. Every corner holds a new challenge, from complex Sokoban-style puzzles to other brain-teasing tasks that will require both logic and creativity.
Cooperation is key—some puzzles can only be solved by R.A.Y’s strength and physical interactions, while others rely on P.I.P’s agility and ability to manipulate electronic devices. Whether playing solo or with a friend, you’ll need to work together to overcome obstacles and unlock the secrets of this beautifully crafted solar punk world.
Gameplay
Project Solar is our first title, an open-world puzzle adventure game designed exclusively for online and couch co-op. You and a friend take on the roles of R.A.Y, a robot with a damaged memory core, and P.I.P, a resourceful drone. Together, your mission is to explore a vast and intriguing solar punk world, solving puzzles, uncovering secrets, and piecing together the history of a forgotten civilization.
The gameplay revolves around cooperative puzzle-solving, featuring challenges like Sokoban-style mechanics that require teamwork, strategic thinking, and careful planning. These puzzles gradually increase in complexity, encouraging creative problem-solving and collaboration. Beyond Sokoban puzzles, you'll encounter a variety of intricate challenges that take full advantage of R.A.Y’s physical abilities and P.I.P’s agility and electronic manipulation skills.
Exploration is just as important as puzzle-solving. You and your partner will navigate diverse environments, discovering hidden paths, secret locations, and collectible Data Entries. These scattered pieces of information reveal more about the world and provide extra depth for those who love to explore every corner.
With its blend of cooperative gameplay, immersive exploration, and engaging puzzle design, Project Solar offers a unique and rewarding experience where teamwork is the key to unlocking the mysteries of a beautifully crafted solar punk world.
