Galactic Glitch is an action/roguelike space shooter, heavily inspired by games like Dead Cells and Enter the Gungeon, that lets you master deep, physics-based combat and your ship’s shape-shifting ability to demolish multi-part enemies piece by piece in tough-but-fair, souls-inspired combat.

In Galactic Glitch, you play an AI on the run, who is fighting not just for its own freedom but also for the existence of the entire universe. Control a shape-shifting starship built by a mysterious being that (mis)directs you on your journey, and find a way out of the simulated world you find yourself in.

Explore, loot and fight your way to freedom through unknown space. Upgrade your ship with new weapons and powers, analyze your enemies and their patterns, hone your skills, and destroy anyone that stands in your way.

German indie developer Crunchy Leaf Games proudly announces that Galactic Glitch will fully launch on Steam this June 3 after 10 years of development and one year of community-driven Steam Early Access. 

The game will be sold at a price of 14.99 USD | EUR, with a 25% discount during the first 2 weeks after launch.

"Community feedback guided us all through Early Access, and we’re incredibly thankful for that. It led to big changes—like adding mid-run saves early on, or reworking the weapon system after players told us the old one just wasn’t fun. Version 1.0 follows the same path, with highly requested features like Prototype ships and a much better upgrade system. Working together with our players has been a great experience and very enjoyable for us—and we’re thrilled to finally launch the full game." — Max Dohme, lead developer at Crunchy Leaf Games
