51 of 51 · most liked firstVery very promising game with some caveats - it's definitely something of interest to people who love Nuts & Bolts, Bad Piggies or even Fantastic Contraption. The early crux of the game is traversing a planet to recover rocket parts (plus other secrets) and you have a series of geographical challenges to overcome by building things which start at simple steps and then become different types of vehicles. The scope of ambition for a smaller indie game is huge and the tools and worlds have so much…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game cured my balding 11/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Abused the physics to launch myself halfway across the tutorial planet, getting trapped unable to get back to the objective, found a sandbox builder, stuck thrusters to a box and flew all over the planet, out into space and into the sun. Figured out how to fly my box, went back to do the rest of the tutorial, flew to the sand planet with my box instead of teleporting there. 10/10 better with a friend.

Embark on the exploration of a planet. The crafting is greatly fun. Superior with your friends.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I expected a game where you build contraptions to solve puzzles. You control both arms separately similarly to human fall flat or struggling. In those games it's to be expected but I didn't expect that from this game and therefore it only added to my frustration since it became incredibly clunky to control. The contraptions you build are very basic, or at least from what I saw, and offers no more building than in some mobile games. I'd wish that they focused on the building aspect, adding…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Astronimo is a cuties game geared towards young adolescents. The price point is nice and the overall play value it well done. While I only played the game alone and on my keyboard, I truly believe Astronimo should be played with both a controller and friends. While I am not a huge fan of the puzzle/physics builder style, I can see a lot of peeps enjoying it with there peers. Watch for the sale and check out some video on Astronimo before buying that would be my suggestion. Enjoy Blockhead…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm far from finished but a fantastic game so far! It's rare to see a proper spiritual successor to Little Big Planet. The building and puzzles are fun and open for creative solutions and I can't believe how well it works in coop. Definitely play this with friends! I hope this game finds more success (which it deserves).
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great little game! Fun for both adults and kids! Reminds me a lot of Little Big Planet, in a good way.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An interesting game this. Enjoyed, but I almost didn't. There are good elements in that it's chilled and very open to your imagination, but I did find some of it clunky, ie the controls. Full review below. https://youtu.be/KH6oh1CpWpo
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Imagine create to play, slay them planet levels and taunt hoorays Very fun game and some more in co-op Game mechanics is smooth and no bugs found Replay ability - YES https://youtu.be/Sst5TVarbLg?feature=shared
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is so much fun but gotta admit it almost passed me by. I've been playing so many bit RPGs and action games that I didn't realise how much I needed to just chill with a platformer that also offered so many hrs (without the stress of time) to creating funky vehicles and inventions. This is a great game to play with friends and already got some time lined up with mine of Discord. It's so much fun. Grab this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awesome, awesome game and lowkey already one of my favorites of 2023- I was genuinely surprised by the amount of depth and mechanics involved. It takes a second to really learn how to control your character, but the first level was pretty good for learning the basics, even if it involved a lot of flailing around... and that was admittedly pretty funny. If you're looking for a great party game, look no further as I had a blast playing this with friends. Looking forward to seeing what other…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What an infuriating game. Astronimo is primarily a platformer, with a vehicle builder shoved inside. I'd like to think I'm *okay* at understanding tutorials, yet multiple parts just didn't seem to make sense (such as trying to lift a box over my head... that I need to stand on?). Despite this, I made it most of the way through the tutorial world, before the awful swinging controls made me give up. On the Steam page I saw some element of "sharing worlds" is available, so I tried to play some…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great gameplay! Inventing new constructions is pure fun. Super nice playing together on one screen. Perfect for cozy winter evenings with friends and family. I am excited about the full release and more planets to travel to. Definitely a recommendation.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is Great! in an era of overcooked clones and generally chaotic coop games, this stands above the rest in gameplay, clarity, innovation and fun. Ill write some negatives and criticism in a second but don't let that fool you, its a really fun and great game! - The graphics and gameplay are great. Everything is bright and chunky, but still is clear and responsive. - Soundtrack is generally good, might get repetitive if you're too much into it. - The game is easy to learn, with the small…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Only complaint is that I can't toot my trumpet while in a vehicle.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →cant get the game to launch crashes without doing anything if anybody has a fix, im willing to try
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I beated my autistic friend to death and thrown his decaying body into a grinder 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a steal, highly recommanded and I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hate platformers because I am getting old.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Astronimo is a co-op building platformer game where you and your crew explore the vast outer space as you make vehicles and structures in order to aid you in your quest across the galaxy. Graphics- Good Soundtrack- Solid Audience- Teenagers or Adults Difficulty- Not too hard but requires some tactical thinking to prevail Story- Okay story Game time- Descent length Price- Not the cheapest but isn't too expensive 7/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Astronimo is a wonderful little co-op gem! It was a ton of fun, with it's hilarious physics, cute style and wacky contraptions. Together with friends you get to solve interesting puzzles, all whilst goofing out as someone punches you, blows a trumpet or just drags you into a pit of lava. All around Astronimo is great time, and definitely deserved more attention than it got.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game is super fun and charming i really enjoy the graphics (i run on the lowest settings and they still look good), i hope this game blows up and gains more porpularity it really deserves it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Played this game with my kids. Great game, lots of laughing. Highly recommended.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Extremely underrated game. Better with a friend. The teleport-to-friend mechanic is a lifesaver. Great art, great music, allows you to build absolute abominations that somehow work 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Couldn't get online co-op working. My friends could join me and I could join my friends, but no matter what we would get disconnected within 30 seconds.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dude, Fix these controls. No momentum with the arms, where is the swinginess. where is the momentum? SWINGING WITH YOUR ARMS IS NOT FUN AT ALL because you don't swing and kind of hold yourself with max power at the end of your grip and levitate across. So far this is gonna need some work for me to consider a playthrough.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Alright. So I've been playing this game with my friend for a couple of hours. We are still in the tutorial world. I don't think we are going to make it past here. Not because the mechanics are too hard. It's actually pretty intuitive. No. It's because we collected the instruments and have been playing with them and making little tunes for such a long time. I don't care about the rest of the game because the instruments are so addictive. The instruments are so satisfying. I'm in love with them.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very polished and approachable platform puzzler for solo or multi play. The garage takes some getting used to but it's pretty powerful and the physics are a blast. Looking forward to playing more.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good game, like GMod but the contraptions actually work
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Astronimo is a physics based, building game where you insist on completing challenges the hard way and yell at each other for hours on end. 10/10 Would struggle again! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3132357855
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What a charming, creative, and FUN game! The puzzles were unique and challenging, and even "cheesing" them still felt satisfying. The building mechanics felt pretty streamlined even on controller, and there is so much freedom in how you approach each problem. There aren't many games that have made me laugh so hard my stomach hurt but I can safely say that this is one of them.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very fun couch co op with the kids!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very decent game - not sure why it's not more famous.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Astronimo is simply a fantastic game if you can actually gather the equipment and friend group to play it properly. It works both solo and with two, but I've found that the real goofiness arises with 3-4 players. We've tried playing on individual computers over the internet, at which point we had some trouble with Steam Remote Play Together, and we've played on one couch with 4 controllers. Positives: + Challenging and varied levels that require creativity in contraption building. + Game looks…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't remember when I last laughed this hard at a game- super fun sandbox mechanics with charming, squishy characters who love to beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of each other between building silly as hell mechanisms.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is annoying and crap
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Janky controls, cutscenes and medium amounts of entities lag the game, start was alright, just feel like it could be worked on
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Amazing, fun and cute game. I had a lot of laughs playing it co-op. It's not too difficult but also not too easy. It has a small con which would be that most challenges you can do with 3-4 contraptions, maybe the puzzles could be made so that you have to think harder, use different types of contraptions. I understand that in the end it comes down to your own imagination. I got the game through Yogscast Jingle Jam 2023 but I'm thinking to myself that these developers deserve my money and this…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A fun little game to mess around in and explore! Extremely well polished (I encountered only one minor bug in my entire playthrough) and has a ton of really interesting mechanics. A lot of potential!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Super cute and fun, if you miss little big planet you will adore this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So cool game, visually stunning, great audio and uunusual genre. Love characters and style! (too bad it didnt found audience, i love builders games!)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game, reminiscent of the best parts of bad piggies, but with fully featured co-op support and oddly good animations
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's an alright game, i wouldn't give it a thumb up though. You can't really build whatever you want, they just give you stuff to solve puzzle, then you move on to the next puzzle, basically bad piggies seamless. Which isn't really great cause the platforming sections in between puzzles are boring. Go play space engineer or something idk
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →childrens game, if you are grown, look elsewhere. way to simple and hand holdy
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Astronimo looks awesome as hell. How does this game only have 30 reviews? 2D BK Nuts & Bolts with wobbly world of goo physics and online co-op? Shut up and take my money.
