Xenosphere
A downloadable game for Windows
Important note to streamers (mild spoiler, click to view)
This game is up to in-game shenanigans involving the streams of the developers, so stream Xenosphere only if you're OK with that appearing in-game. If you want to play the game without the meta shenanigans, the "High Score" mode which unlocks after the first playthrough disables them.Drift, spin, dash, and golf your way in a journey through interstellar glyph space.
Xenosphere is not terribly difficult, though not without challenge either. Note that the game doesn't have a save game feature as it's meant to be completed in a single 30-minute(ish) session.
An unlockable "high score" mode is also available if you want to test your skill.
Xenosphere also features highly adaptive algorithmic music using the integrated music software also featured in Uurnog, Ynglet, and Mystery Artifact.

very cool, such a unique idea and this was such a fun little experience. thank u <3
this was an awesome experience c: if you’re reading this and haven’t played yet, don’t look up anything and play now!!! the music in your games is always great :3
cool! I loved this so much!
wtf
Nice idea hahah, interesting
Great acting by 1Neila1 and some fun ideas an writing, well done !
very cool idea! short but sweet. just one of those games where you're better off going in blind.
Man, this was a unique experience for sure, this shows that creativity can always surprise you, no matter how many years you've been playing videogames!!
Thank you so much! <3
Awesome.
that's so COOL !! I can't wait to see more from you !
algorithmic music generation is also a really cool concept that I wish more people experimented with
Cool! Loved how natural it all felt, even with you controlling the gamepla
The writing is too good
Incredible game! So creative!
My friend who streams herself (Slumdropbutton) recommended this outstanding game! While I was playing this game, I was admiring the music, colors, and over all quality. The game itself is unpredictable, as I was playing a lot of cute, cool, amazing , and creative things happened. There is nothing I didn't love about this game and I look forward to more of your outstanding creations. I recommend this game to those curious and I will be suggesting this to others! Keep up the great work! 10 out 10!! My chat also loved it!
Thank you! I'm so happy you had a good time with it!
i was getting mad at the fraud "streamer" because she was talking too much. anyways amazing game and where is "the best part of the game" that the streamer was blocking it was not in highscores mode?
High score mode is permanently unlocked after you've played through the game once, and is activated from the main menu right after you start the game
seems crazy! Pretty interesting idea
This was. so. FUN!!! also what actually happened we have any lore?
The game is very absurdist, so the events aren't meant to have an explanation or logic that maps to the real world. That said, there is an internal logic to the game.
Had a huge smile on my face playing this, so cool!!
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!
So cool! Gameplay is super fun and the extra stuff is a blast!
Bravo, this experience was a treat.
Very cool game bro!!
is there even a bounce button or do we need to pause tech
I maaaaay have forgot to add that code to the game! It happens :)
<3 !!
it immediately crashed for me i wish i could play ):
If I could get a look at your Player.log I could maybe figure out why it crashes on your PC?
In Windows press Win+R, and paste this in: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Nifflas' Games\Xenosphere, this should open a folder containing Player.log which will probably contain the cause of the crash
Amazing Work!
Incredible work!
That was trippy as all hell. Loved it.
came here from Streamanthe and absolutely loving the game
Thank you! Very happy to hear you like it! They're totally obliterating me in trivia over at the stream.
controls?
Most buttons on the bottom row of the keyboard will work! No controller support unfortunately. Controls are left without description because.... shenanigans! (you'll find out). But yeah, space bar will work, and lots of other keys, they all do the same thing!
Вау, очень хорошая игра, я рад что стримерша получила месть в ответ когда останавливала меня
I thought this was a online game with world chat but it was just a streamer. lol
THAT. WAS. ABSOLUTELY FIRE!
Thank you :) So happy you enjoyed it!
awesome game :)
this was so fucking cool to play thanks for making this awesome game
Just wanted to leave another comment. My previous comment I was lost and confused because I found this game a while back and only recently got to sit down and play it. Then the streamer happened and I closed the game. Thankfully someone replied to my comment telling me it part of the game so I gave the game another shot and I am very glad I did. This game is awesome. I will be recommending this game to everyone.
That's totally alright :) I'm glad you ended up having a good time with the game!
A solidly entertaining play, and a really neat concept.
very good idea, I play like 20 minnutes and I really enjoyed. but there is still need to add something to the game for improving the ejoyment, the competition is good for the start but the fun is less then competition. Maybe streamer can sabotate our play even more that or the troll guys can came to the chat and trol the stream. thoose feedback are just for the begining the game like 20 minute play time.
Or maybe you should add a pilot twist like we can sabotate the stream (chat, donates, camera e.g) with our mouse or idk bounce the ball to the edges and shake the game screen .
I am a little confused. I ran across this game a while back and finally got a chance to check it out. Got about 3 minutes in (long enough to get a grove and get a feel for the game) then streamer takeover and I am no longer playing the game at all?????
No, you're still playing :) But you may not be completely in control over everything. But controlling the ball will be in your hands... well, mostly -ish!
Oh ok, makes sense now. I was like WTF is going on this game is either broken or I am missing something.
the most innovative golf-like platformer ive played in years
this is xenoblade 4
you should make a new chapter with different people
