About this game
Olbers Paradox is a high energy side scrolling action game focused on speed, light, and destruction.
You play as a sentient sphere of plasma drifting through space, fighting waves of enemy plasma orbs. Every level is built around intense visual effects, tight movement, and constant momentum.
Hidden throughout each map are power ups that can turn the tide of battle. Between levels, you can upgrade your abilities, allowing you to customize your play style and push deeper into increasingly dangerous encounters.
Each stage ends with a boss fight designed to test your reflexes and mastery of your upgrades. Learn enemy patterns and react quickly.
