About
In a world of countless tiers, stars are divided into zones based on the strength of their light.
The protagonist, Pio, born with a faint light, begins their journey in the lowest tier, the Graveyard of Stars, yet carries a deep longing for the upper tiers.
To realize this dream, Pio takes on the Trials of the Stars, aiming to ascend to the higher realms.

Pio is a unique action platformer where players use the terrain they stand on to attack enemies.
The game's standout feature is that the player's bullets also serve as terrain.

The more bullets you fire, the smaller the terrain becomes, demanding precise control. On the other hand, conserving bullets means enduring the onslaught of powerful monsters.
Experience this innovative action gameplay as you strategically manage your terrain and bullets to overcome challenges!
As you continue to face challenges, a more dreamlike world of stars unfolds.
Embark on a shining journey and explore a unique world!

Muy divertido el juego, corto pero intenso, me encanto la mecánica de usar el suelo como nuestros proyectiles, a decir verdad, le da un cambio bastante interesante ya que tenemos recursos ilimitados para disparar pero debemos ser inteligentes para no perder las plataformas que contienen nuestros disparos. Las batallas estuvieron geniales y los jefes muy buenos, ojala tuviera unos pocos logros para coleccionarlos. algo malo que vi fue que al momento del tutorial se puede hacer tedioso esperar a que aparezca la vida en la esquina inferior izquierda, y luego otros cinco segundos mas hasta que ya nos podamos mover, recomendaría hacer mas rápida esa parte, por lo demás esta muy buen el juego. Lo recomiendo bastante, además de que es gratis y corto,.
Pio is a beautiful and unique game. The story isn't anything insanely fresh but it's got heart and a good message. Gorgeous design and art first drew my attention to the game, I love the style of 3D it's using and I really love how everything looks. From the blocks to the character designs it's just oozing charm. Not only that, but the actual mechanics are good too, I enjoy the idea of using the environment to combat enemies, in this case being the star imbued blocks you stand on which can be used to execute a variety of moves. My only gripe is the controls, no controller support and using one through steam input makes it very flimsy to control. A fully fleshed out version would be lovely.
