What it does

Forget everything you’ve learned about combat. Cobalt’s slo-mo mechanic lets you perform moves that other games can’t comprehend. Discover the secrets of a distant colony in a cosmic campaign, take on challenges and rule the leaderboards, or face off against others in local and online multiplayer.

“For brief moments, it can feel like a 2D Deus Ex.” Rock Paper Shotgun “Across all modes, across all entertaining distractions, Cobalt is the 2D platform-shooter-brawler in which you can combat-roll into oncoming projectiles, trigger a glorious moment of auto-slo-mo, and knock whatever's headed your way back in the direction it came from.” Eurogamer “It simply doesn’t get better than this.” PCGamesN You can use this widget-maker to generate a bit of HTML that can be embedded in your website to easily allow customers to purchase this game onfrom store.steampowered.com
