Cultist Astronaut is a 2D action adventure that takes place in a cult infested solar system. In this game, you can travel to different planets corrupted by cults. Your mission is to destroy opposing cults and unify the universe under the old gods! The planets of Cultist Astronaut consist of ominous cults, twisted abominations, and hazardous locations to tackle. The game currently features one planet called Necrorock which is home to the Flayed Cult, an undead necromantic society without skin! As an unflayed heretic, you are not safe here. This planet is covered in radioactive waste, sawblades, and flayed abominations that will skin you alive.
