- The first demo update - 19 July 2025
First demo update is LIVE - black hole issue is fixed!Hello everyone! First and foremost, thanks for all the wonderful reactions and bug reports! It really helped us tackle the critical problems. The most common report was the black hole issue, and good news— we fixed it! Furthermore, we improved the asteroid collision and water visibility, so you don't lose track of them as easily.We're really happy with how the Curiosmos demo was received, and from the bottom of my heart, thank you!! It makes us extremely excited to expand the universe.Cheers & lots of love,Céline
- ✷ BIG NEWS ✷ curiosmos demo just DROPPED !! - 16 July 2025
It's kinda hard to believe that we just released it... but after checking it 8 times I can confirm with certainty; it's truly live! Curiosmos is actually out there in the world and finally everyone can play it on Steam. I feel like I’ve been holding my breath for weeks and I can finally sigh from relief.The first public Curiosmos demo - our weird little space game is now yours to poke at. Pull some asteroids into orbit and see what breaks (hopefully not too much :'•)It’s still a bit rough in places (we’re still working on controller support for example), BUT it’s also full of love, strange little systems, cute planets and silly moments. I hope it will make you feel something ✧I'm excited to hear what you think!~ Céline

- OH... I forgot to tell you?? Curiosmos was in Day of the Devs!! + 2025 plans ✵ - 19 February 2025
So, um... BIG NEWS! I completely forgot to update you here, oops! Curiosmos was featured in Day of the Devs: Game Awards Edition back in December, and it was AMAZING. Seeing our little game up there with so many cool titles felt pretty legendary. This showcase is ✰ extra special ✰ because it’s all about gameplay—real in-game footage with a voice-over explaining what on earth (or space??) you actually do in Curiosmos. → Check it out here (1 hour 7 minutes in)! I'd really recommend checking out the full showcase, as many cool games were shown last December.

- Curiosmos is a galactic playground of planet creation and creature evolution - 11 December 2024
Infamous evolutionary flop Spore , for all its flaws, still had a lot of magic to it. It was fun to design your weird creatures, to watch them try to walk, and - in principle - to turn your humble creations into a spacefaring species. Curiosmos is a very different game, but it has a little of the same appeal. It's a galactic playground in which you smash meteors together to make planets, then tinker with the ecosystems of those planets to make life and watch that life evolve. All while a hungry black hole lingers nearby, eager to consume everything you have created. There's an explanatory video below. Read more

- Curiosmos in The Guardian! - 16 July 2024
Hellooo everyone! We have some news to share, and it is about the actual news. Recently I did an interview with Lewis Gordon from the Guardian about Curiosmos, and he turned it into an absolutely lovely read. It tells the small history and the thought process behind Curiosmos. I thought I'd share it here as I highly recommend checking it out. The article can be found here: "A child’s-eye view of the universe: Curiosmos makes space simulation fun" In the meantime we're working hard on a demo that we'll showcase at Gamescom, more news about that soon! Lots of love, ~ Céline
