About the Game

NODE is an atmospheric puzzle platformer, set in an abandoned Soviet Nuclear plant, where the player doesn’t have direct control of the character and is challenged to navigate a familiar genre in a new way.

NODE implements a Timeline-based navigation mechanic where you plan a route for your robot, strategize, sequence commands, and execute them to navigate between checkpoints.

Set in a world where Cold War era historical intrigue meets science fiction, delivered by rich imagery and intricate level design. The world of NODE is filled with puzzles, hidden secrets, and a deep branching narrative.

Features

  • Timeline-Based Navigation
    Command NODE with precision in a unique twist on puzzle-platforming. Sequence your actions across a timeline, plotting each jump, switch, and dodge to navigate treacherous checkpoints. Retry, refine, and perfect your strategy to overcome obstacles.

  • Immersive,Atmospheric World
    Set in a haunting Soviet nuclear facility from the Cold War era, where history collides with eerie sci-fi. Blending 2D and 3D, the game’s realistic graphics, rich visual storytelling, and intricate level design create a world steeped in secrets—bathed in dynamic lighting and filled with chilling, atmospheric sound.

    Engage with branching dialogues that blur the line between free will and programmed response. Shape your path through conversations monitored, manipulated and remembered.

  • Dig Deeper. Discover More.
    Rewarding Curiosity and Exploration. NODE rewards those who look closer. Beyond its surface lies a network of hidden challenges, secret paths, and layered narratives waiting to be uncovered by those who question the obvious. Every detour offers deeper insight into the world’s history and architecture, inviting puzzle-solvers to dig beneath the noise and discover what others overlook.
