Osmos

$9.99
5 out of 5

Enter the absorbing world of Osmos: part ambient, cosmic simulator, and part Darwinistic game of survival. This multi-award-winning game features beautiful, physics-based gameplay, dreamlike visuals, and an atmospheric electronic soundtrack.

Your goal is to grow by absorbing smaller motes. Propel yourself by ejecting matter behind you. But be wise: ejecting matter also shrinks you. Relax -- good things come to those who wait.

Key features:
* Supports multitouch displays on Windows 7
* Progress from serenely ambient levels into varied and challenging worlds (47 levels plus bonus content)
* Confront attractors, repulsors and intelligent motes with similar abilities as you
* Procedural content: play random versions of any level
* Sublime electronic soundtrack by Loscil, Gas/High Skies, Julien Neto, Biosphere, and more
* Dynamic time-warping: slow down the flow of time to outmaneuver agile opponents; speed it up to raise the challenge

Accolades:
* Winner of the IGF D2D Vision award.
* Winner of the "Best in Show" and "Fun/Compelling" awards at IndieCade.
* Independent Games Festival finalist in three categories: Seumas McNally Grand Prize, Excellence in Design and Technical Excellence
* Selected as one of the 2009 PAX 10
* ...and chosen by many websites in their best-of-year lists.
