Crash-landing on a mysterious planet, Nova the Star is thrust into an epic journey in 'Nova's Adventure (Sage 2024 Demo)'. This fresh HTML5 platformer fuses classic action with modern indie flair, inviting players to explore vibrant alien biomes, unravel secrets, and overcome ingenious obstacles.

As Nova, your mission is crystal clear: recover missing ship parts scattered across treacherous terrain after an asteroid shatters your spacecraft. But survival is only half the story—every leap, explosion, and discovery is an opportunity for clever innovation and pulse-pounding fun.

Uniquely, Nova wields the power to summon Star Bombs, versatile projectiles you can deftly toss in all four directions. Blow up blocks, blast through a host of quirky alien foes, and even use the force of your own explosions to rocket upward, unlocking secret platforms and hidden areas. Mastering this bomb-propulsion mechanic is essential, blending fast-thinking platforming skill with smart strategy.

Built for both desktop and mobile, the controls are snappy and quick to learn—making every heroic dash and exhilarating leap as satisfying with your thumbs as with your keyboard. The game's indie roots shine through in its hand-crafted pixel art, imaginative soundscape, and clever level designs that encourage exploration and experimentation.
