Release Date: April 17, 2025
A pixel-art 2D platformer largely based on playing with the laws of physics. Bionic Bay allows us to control a scientist trying to escape from an ancient biomechanic world. We use our parkour skills, but we also manipulate gravity to avoid dangers and solve puzzles.
Bionic Bay is a 2D sci-fi platformer with high-density pixel art graphics. It is exploiting the laws of physics, particularly gravity. The game was created in collaboration with Finnish artist-designer Juhana Myllys (Mureena), who previously worked on Badland 2, and the Thai duo of programmers from Psychoflow Studio.
In Bionic Bay we find ourselves in a post-apocalyptic world where nature is combined with mechanics. The land is full of mysterious technologies and secrets hidden in diverse biomes, just waiting to be discovered.
The key element is the ability to manipulate the laws of physics. We control the gravity of the entire world and we also have the ability to swap places with various objects in our path.
This allows for faster movement around the locations and solving puzzles. It also affects the difficulty level and the dangers we encounter.
We can easily fall or slip from platforms. Additionally, any change in physics also affects the fluids, beams, and particles that surround us.
The visual design of the game is created from detailed science-fiction landscapes in high-density pixel-art style. All locations differ from each other, which is also influenced by the atmospheric sounds.

Game Ratings for Bionic Bay Video Game.
KeenGamer: 8 / 10
Bionic Bay is inspired by old puzzle platformers with it's art style and level design but brings a modern touch with innovative physic mechanics and more active movement. They've essentially merged Mario-type movement with Limbo-stle level design. No point in Bionic Bay is dull but it still somehow drags on a little too long.
VDGMS: 7.5 / 10 by Darren Andrew
Where Bionic Bay really sets itself apart from its peers is how the puzzles within require equal amounts intellectual prowess and dexterity. The experience harmoniously blends puzzles, physics, precision and mystery. Bionic Bay is dripping with atmosphere due to its gritty, yet beautiful pixel art and an ominous score. With a stronger emphasis on storytelling, implicit or explicit, and a slightly more refined campaign, Bionic Bay could have had the lasting impact of some of the genre’s best. Nonetheless, Bionic Bay is still extremely satisfying and unique despite competing in one of the oldest sections of gaming and is essential for genre fanatics.
DualShockers: 10 / 10 by Ethan Krieger
Bionic Bay is a truly special platformer that is wildly creative and endlessly smart. Each new section of gameplay is a mini-puzzle that utilizes the game's movement and powers extraordinarily intuitively, leading to continuous rewarding solutions that encourage players to think outside the box and bend the world's mechanics to their will.
