About the story
Astronite is a 1bit Metroidvania where you will find a big map full of hidden secrets. Get the power ups and travel through all the zones. Fight many different enemies, explore platforming areas and defeat big bosses that will stand in your way. Your goal is clear: eliminate the invasive species from your home planet. Mission 2205 is the last big chance for the ancient inhabitants of Neplea. Long ago the inhabitants of Neplea discovered that a strange Entity lived in the core of the planet. They studied it carefully but were never able to decipher the riddle. After a while, the Entity created a great army which ended up taking their home from the inhabitants of Neplea. Now it's Astronite's turn, an intrepid space adventurer who will have to do everything possible to expel the invaders from his planet once and for all.

Critic Reviews
PSX Brasil
By Eric OliveiraAstronite is that game that you're not going to call it amazing or your favorite but it is not bad either. It can be just another simple metroidvania to play during the weekend.
LevelUp
By Santiago VillicañaAstronite can be really fun and challenging, but sometimes it can be unfair and the reward is nearly not enough. If you are a casual game, skip it, but if you love pain and old school games, it is really worth the try.
Video Chums
By A.J. MaciejewskiYour enjoyment of Astronite will almost entirely rely on your patience for retreading the same paths again and again while taking unfair damage from hazards that blend in with the scenery and enemies that shoot much further than you can. Good grief!

By Jose Antonio Calvo CenicerosWith the conscientious work of a single person in charge, Astronite is one of those games that we will like at a quick glance, but it will not easily settle in our heads given the vast artistic offer that 2D action and platform metroidvanias present. But it will as soon as we have the pad in our hands and spend hours with it. Through a classic approach well managed in control and situations, we will have a much more difficult game than what we have become accustomed to in this style in recent years. That can be a good thing, although it's not so good anymore that some complications and frustrations come from a hopeless approach to managing in-game currency, or some more intricate and restrictive moments and structural design than its genre could demand. But Astronite is still a recommendable and interesting game, a game that can also give you a good number of hours, compared to much shorter similar proposals. We simply have to know what we are going for and where we are going to get into.
