A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Oh no! NASA has decided that having a giant octopus monster in space is bad, so they’ve come with flamethrowers to drive you out of Earth’s upper atmosphere.

Retaliate by eating the astronauts that try to attack you!

Use WASD to move.

Use the mouse or trackpad to move the end of the tentacle. This will manipulate the shape of the tentacle.

Eat astronauts by moving them to the octopus’s mouth in the middle of its head using the tentacle.

Watch out – if an astronaut gets close to your tentacle, it will start using its flamethrower, so be fast!

You'll die if you run out of HP, so try not to do that.

Defeat all the enemies to move onto the next stage (Completion is displayed in the blue progress bar.)

You'll also regenerate a little bit of HP when you eat an enemy… a delicious meal can refuel anyone!
