'Ziggy's Cosmic Adventures' Comes to Meta Quest 2 And PC VR In November - Trailer

Space combat meets ship management in Ziggy's Cosmic Adventures, a cockpit VR adventure where a galactic empire is after the little alien you stole.

Explore the cosmos with your stolen alien companion Ziggy, battle and escape the forces coming to reclaim him as you manage your ship’s systems from your room-scale cockpit.

In Ziggy’s Cosmic Adventures, you can switch on your lights, power your shields, balance temperature and pressure, fix hull breaches and more, using the switches, levers and other systems at arms reach in your VR cockpit. From your cockpit, you will be engaging in thrilling space combat, dodging asteroids and dealing with laser blasts as you seek to thwart your pursuers. Branching story paths will change the course of your journey based on the decisions you make and allow you to experience a different tale with each playthrough.

You take on the role of a bounty hunter who has stolen a small alien creature called Ziggy. The evil galactic empire that you stole them from wants them back and won’t stop hunting you down until they stop you. To survive, you will have to take on a variety of challenges in each level that require you to utilise your ship’s systems in a variety of ways.


“We’re really pleased to announce that the game is finally going to be coming to Meta Quest 2 and PC VR on November 9th and we hope you’re looking forward to your galactic adventure with little Ziggy,” said Alex Clarke, Stardust Collective co-founder. “Ziggy’s Cosmic Adventures began life as a Game Jam entry back in 2020, with our small team realising that it had great potential as a fully developed VR title!”

Key Features:

  • Become one with the ship: Immerse yourself in a cockpit packed full from ceiling to floor with distinct physics-based interactions (Though make sure to keep your eye on them all if you want to survive!).
  • Rebel against The Empire: Engage in thrilling dogfights as squads of enemies pursue you to re-capture the small green treasure aboard your ship - shoot bullets, launch bombs, and raise your shields. It's going to get bumpy!
  • Navigate the vacuum of space: Control the ship with a radical and easy-to-use virtual flight stick design, dodge your way through hazardous space environments, and don't forget to do a barrel roll!
  • The little guy: Who could forget your cosmic friend, Ziggy?! This mysterious creature is a perfect fuel source. You can also play with them, use them as a resource, feed them, and most importantly pet them!
  • The Journey: Fight your way through 13 unique levels total. Forge a different path each time by beating challenges and unlocking harder worlds en route.

Ziggy’s Cosmic Adventures is coming to Meta Quest 2 and PC VR (Steam) on November 9, 2023.
