Work your way through an alien moon orbiting a gas giant to find the secrets of the monolith. Solve puzzles and navigate rough obstacles to find the monoliths that will unlock powers within. The monoliths have been there forever giving life to the land, but even when they crumble... they're not done yet.
States of Matter:
Switch between Solid, Liquid, & Gas
Make huge jumps and land with control as solid. Liquid can stick to certain surfaces and climb cliffs, and gas can help you reach new heights. Use them together to get to the final monolith.
WASD for movement
Space to jump
Play in either first person or third person
RMB changes your view (Third Person to First Person perspective)
LMB changes your state of matter.
Matter of State is a 3D Puzzle-Platformer/Adventure game set on an alien moon. You are an alien lifeform that can shift between the different states of matter; solid, liquid, & gas. Using these different states, you must overcome obstacles and solve puzzles to uncover the mystery of the monolith.
Each monolith you discover will unlock your ability to change to a new state of matter and use them to reach new areas.
Looking down from the tower.
Solid is the basic state you begin with and give you the best control on the ground. Land risky jumps without sliding off the edge, and activate alien devices you find on the moon's surface.
Liquid allows you to stick to certain surfaces which helps you climb and discover new areas on the planet. As liquid you are also invulnerable to physical damage from other lifeforms that share the moon with you.
Gas is very powerful but also very unstable. Gas allows you to float up very high which helps you reach heights previously unattainable. While in a gas state you will not be able to move around other than floating up and down. Gas can help you lift objects and move certain things above you too (in future updates).

Use these together and discover the final monolith at the end of a long journey. Along the way you will find interesting creatures and difficult terrains to cross. It also has a dynamic soundscape & no HUD which will immerse you deep into this alien moon.
We are currently working on our next levels, along with new puzzles and gameplay elements that will keep you thinking the entire way. We are also working on more states of matter such as plasma that will give you some very interesting abilities to interact with your surroundings.
We plan on having a full demo available by late spring or early summer.
