Co-dev studio Blind Squirrel reveals in-house original IP Cosmorons

Blind Squirrel Games, which is best-known for its co-development and porting work, today announced its new original game: Cosmorons, a survival shooter in a sci-fi setting reminiscent of arcade shooters. The studio has a projected release date of 2025 and plans to launch the game on PC, Xbox Series X, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Switch. It’s primarily developing Cosmorons at its Auckland, New Zealand office and is currently looking for a publishing partner.

According to Blind Squirrel, Cosmorons stars robots called Drudges who attempt to survive on alien planets with tricky gravity. The game supports single-player and multiplayer gameplay, where players try to conquer galaxies planet-by-planet, facing hostile aliens in pursuit of “Ultimate Glory.” Every planet offers different challenges, with gravitational fields complicating aerial and ground combat. The game also features minigames such as time trials.
