About the Game

Breathedge is an ironic outer space survival adventure game. Take on the role of a simple guy called the Man who is just carrying his grandpa's ashes to a galactic funeral and suddenly finds himself in the middle of a universal conspiracy.

Welcome to Space

A massive space hearse suffers a wreck in the deep space, leaving the area filled with debris, coffins, dead passengers and yourself. Survive in this interstellar dump, uncover a global conspiracy, save the princess and don’t break your fingers while tapping the keyboard as you travel around the world (keeping your display on for full immersion is advised).

Try to stay alive

Space isn’t a joke (despite us trying to prove otherwise) and not dying is a challenge. Lose your progress in spectacular ways, including but not limited to suffocation, freezing, incineration, electrocution, depression, blunt trauma, and more.

Litter space with garbage you created

It took a long time for our ancestors to develop because they had no electrical tape. You have it and you know how to use it. With this magical artifact, you can create a vast variety of useless objects and throw them out of the airlock! There are also many useful items to be created, but be careful as this may result in completing the game.

Fix and Decorate

When all your neighbors just hover around in vacuum doing nothing but playing dead, various tools and gears will help you become the worst noisy neighbor ever. Create a unique space station, provide it with oxygen and electricity, install all kinds of equipment from solar panels to a hamster farm, and turn it into a real bachelor pad by stuffing it with furniture mixed with all kinds of junk.

Honk! Honk!

Yes, you heard that right, it’s your own private car horn! Besides that, you can assemble a small rocket, ride the dead or build a large space shuttle. Transportation helps you move faster, evade obstacles and see the death screen after a head-on collision.

  Breathedge 2 — Now in Early Access!

  Hello, hello, hello to absolutely everyone. It’s no secret that we’re standing on the brink of a very big and momentous occasion for our very small and largely unmomentous studio: Breathedge 2 is launching into Early Access! It took us several long and fairly brutal, uh… however many years it’s been, but somehow, together with you, we’ve finally managed to crawl all the way to release. Hooray!The exact launch date and time: today, AUGUST 31, at 3:00 PM UTC (8:00 AM PT · 11:00 AM ET · 5:00 PM CEST)Early Access launches with a discount and at the lowest price the game will have. As major updates roll out, we plan to raise the price a little, just like we did with the first Breathedge.One more thing we want to make absolutely clear: Breathedge 2 is launching in Early Access. This is not the full release of the finished game, but only part of it. Please keep that in mind when deciding whether to spend your hard-earned money now or wait for version 1.0, with all the planned mechanics, the complete story, and a much more thoroughly polished balance.We are not a AAA studio, and Early Access is what allows us to build a game of the scale we originally envisioned without resorting to black magic, ritual sacrifices, or other questionable production methods. More importantly, it lets us work alongside the players, see what actually works outside our own heads, adjust our plans as we go, and make the game better in ways we simply could not do in isolation.If you do not like this kind of development model, we genuinely recommend waiting for version 1.0. If, on the other hand, you enjoy taking part in development, giving feedback, watching the game grow, and discovering which texture the half-blind developers somehow failed to notice before you fell straight through it, then Early Access is probably exactly your kind of thing.We also do not like the idea of releasing something obviously raw and calling it Early Access. Our goal is to make the part of the game that is already avai...

  Breathedge 2 Early Access Is Coming This August!

  Greetings to everyone who gives even the tiniest bit of a damn about our little bearded brainchild.If you read the headline, you’ve probably already guessed that we’re announcing the launch of Early Access this August! And if you didn’t read it - we’re announcing the launch of Early Access this August! Hooray!To celebrate this announcement, we even cobbled together a small trailer, which we showed at IGN Live:Besides the wonderfully pointless trailer, we’ve also prepared a video showing the first 15 minutes of the game. We’ll be sharing it with you very soon, but for now it’s waiting for its big moment - which, translated into human language, means “we’re trying to squeeze it into some event or another.”Fair warning: if you hate spoilers, feel free to skip it. They’re minor, but it is the actual beginning of the game. If your memory is anything like ours - less of a feature and more of an urban legend - then feel free not to skip it.Those of you who played the demo will probably notice a few changes, because almost nothing from it is staying. Even the kid with the coffinbots, has vanished somewhere... But don’t worry, they’ll be back. Someday.Anyway, trailers are trailers, but what’s actually going on with development right now? At the moment, the project is in the early polishing stage. The whole foundation for launch is in place, and it works - powered by profanity and tears, obviously.On top of the technical side, there are still plenty of visual tweaks, localization, sound work, and all the other joys of game development ahead of us, but... the light at the end of the tunnel is already shining!Of course, without your support, comments, reviews, ideas, and lovingly written insult emails, we would have withered away by now. So thank you, comrades, for sticking with us all this time! Where would we be without our cosmonauts... And this is where we should point out that Early Access is launching first and foremost for the people who love Breathedge 2 and are waiting...

  Breathedge 2 – Announcement and Changes

  So… what are we even supposed to write here?Hey, ChatGPT, write a nice and polite announcement about our game so nobody realizes it was written by a chicken with a severe case of chaotic, slightly sadistic graphomania. Make it sound like a proper AAA studio post. Let’s go:Hello, friends! We couldn’t help but notice that the first quarter has already passed, and that long-awaited GTA is still nowhere to be seen. “How are we supposed to interpret this?” – you might ask. And yes, it is indeed a serious issue. Want this text to sound even more polite? I can also offer five alternative headline versions optimized for maximum trend potential!Alright, alright, you got us – even AI doesn’t write that badly. But the general idea is correct, and today we’ve got some big news about our small game, some major overhauls, a slight change of direction, and all that good stuff.So… Breathedge 2 – what’s the deal?Let’s start with the two most important questions:When release?Release when?Sure, we could dodge the question again with some clever joke about wolves, forests, and… squirrel dentistry or whatever – but we won’t.Based on our highly scientific estimates (and with help from whatever higher powers are out there), we’re aiming to launch Early Access in Q3 this year. Most likely, there won’t be any more delays – unless something truly catastrophic happens. We’ll announce the exact date a bit later – mostly because we don’t actually know it ourselves yet. But hey, we do have a plan.So yeah… that’s where we’re at. But!If the demo came out ages ago and was already polished to a shine back then – what exactly have we been doing all this time? And this is where the magic of game development kicks in! Watch closely: the demo was well received by players, made it into the festival’s popular demos list, and got great reviews on Steam. What does that mean?It means we had to throw it out completely and rebuild it from scratch. Yep. That’s exactly what we did.Magicians usually don’t reveal ...
