Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.75/day in the week to Aug 3 → 6.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Katanaut is a fast-paced, Metroidvania-inspired action roguelite set aboard a massive space station falling into cosmic chaos. With the station slowly spiraling out of control, and its once-human inhabitants twisted into terrors, you’re the unlucky one tasked with uncovering what is going on... assuming you’re able to survive the station's violent halls with souls-like combat.
As Naut, you explore the corridors of this once vibrant station... or what's left of it. The deeper you descend into the station, the environments become more haunting, and the enemies less human.
Through advanced time-manipulation, you’re brought back to life whenever your bio-metrics are no longer detected. In the future where humans are able to download new abilities on demand, the station is now scattered with memory fragments from the fallen. Each one having the potential of being a lost skill or talent waiting to be unlocked.
Every run offers a new pivoted challenge with ever-changing pathways to explore, and pits you against hordes of enemies. Each ride down the station's elevators carries forward progress from the memory fragments you scavenge along your exploration.
In Katanaut, each clash of your blade echoes through the station's empty and flickering corridors, where every corner feels like is a surprise watching you... Whether you thrive in precision combat or prefer dealing with enemies from a safe distance, this is one cleanup job you won't forget.

it is a very fun game but the character does feel a little overpowered at times thats really my only complaint and i still havent gotten very far yet but will for sure be playing more
Fun fast paced metroidvania with cosmic horror and sci fi themes. If a faster Dead Cells that takes place on the Event Horizon sounds like your kind of thing, pick this up. I'm having a hard time playing anything else right now. 100% recommend. I feel like I stole this game getting it on sale.
One of my favorite things is how rewarding mastery feels. Looking back at enemies that used to destroy me and cutting through them effortlessly is incredibly satisfying.

I picked this up expecting a fun action game, but I ended up getting completely hooked on improving with every run. Each attempt feels like a chance to learn something new, and even when I fail, I immediately want to jump back in and try again. The combat is fast, satisfying, and incredibly rewarding once everything starts to click.
The combat is fast, satisfying, and keeps me completely focused every time I start a run. I love how the game rewards practice and quick decision-making. Even when a run doesn’t go as planned, I usually end up learning something that helps me do better the next time.
Great game! wish mobs were a bit more difficult for combat pacing.
Amazing hidden gem of a game, very smooth gamplay and so much content, would recomend to anyone.
レビューとトレイラーが良さげだったので購入してみましたが ちょっと自分には合いませんでした。グラフィックや世界観は非常に魅力的です。 スピード感やアクションのレスポンスは良いのですが、カメラシェイクをオフにしても キャラクターがどういう状態がわかりにくく、最初のボスで何が被弾しているのか全くわからず 倒せなかったので攻略を諦めました。スキル種類がたくさんあるにも関わらず初期スロットが 2つしかないため、いろいろ試せないのも不便なのと恒久的アップグレードもコストが非常に高く ローグライト的救済措置もあまり感じられませんでした。
i just got the game and am having a blast. will update this review when ive gotten the hang of it all but so far this is more than what i was expecting when i pressed purchase.
sazia il mio autismo nel modo perfetto
