About This Game

Physics-Inspired Gameplay

Utilize the physical properties of your alkali metal body to react with the environment. Jump into water to explosively leap upwards, use yourself as an improvised torch to move fire, sacrifice half your mass to go through a whirling saw, or simply use the polished movement system to avoid hazards.

A Game Where Size Matters

A precision platformer without instant death. Keep your body topped off by picking up pieces of alkali metal in a world that wants to grind you down, and use your varying size to your advantage.

Create Your Own Levels

Great and challenging platformer that captures that same feeling of “just one more attempt” from games like Celeste. The unique mechanic of hp and size isn’t just a gimmick but is used throughout the game All being tied up with a fitting soundtrack. 10/10!

Without a doubt one of the best and most fun platformers I've ever played. Well worth it. I'm looking forward to playing a lot more of this game and honing my skills. And I also lowkey hope they drop the music on spotify lmao, absolute banger 10/10 would recommend!

Just played Alkali, a most pleasant experience. I’m mostly used to platform games but this precision platformer did work nice for me. The idea of running a figure made of an alkali metal is cool. Later on when I get more into the game I´m looking forward doing my own courses. I´m giving Alkali my best recommendations.

I grew up playing platformers, so I'm always looking for interesting ones to play, and this one checks all the boxes. It looks good, the level design is well executed, the shrinking mechanic is quite funny, and there seems to be a decent amount of content and ways to challenge yourself. Level editor is a nice addition too, if the community gets into it. Game is also very stable so far, I see nothing strange going on, this seems to have been very thoroughly tested. Highly recommended for any platform games fan.

Quick Score: 3/5 Notes: The gameplay itself is a solid albeit basic platformer, and there is a fair amount of content, but that is about it. The visuals are pretty bad, and the level design ranges from middle of the road to mildly annoying. The core mechanic of the game is hardly ever utilized or actually matters, that being the weight/health/size thing. As a result this also makes the gems or "collectibles" scattered around the levels mostly irrelevant except in rare cases. The game also has a scoring mechanic that serves essentially no purpose because there are no achievements for it and there are no score goals or leaderboards connected to it. If the game ever decided to introduce either IL score goals or a deathless type challenge, that would remedy the issue of the core mechanic and gems currently serving almost no real purpose. It would also massively increase replayability, I would strongly encourage the devs to do so. Overall though, in its current state, the game ...

Thanks Sleipner Games, very cool! My girlfriend has already forbidden herself from playing more because the game is too addictive! (Noob but still :) I'm also noob but it's fun anyway.

Great game! Fans of Celeste and Super Meat Boy should enjoy Alkali! Interesting new mechanics, fun levels. Alkali is challenging but not over the top. I'm still working my way trying to complete the game but I recommend this game to anyone into precision platformers!
