Press release:
[LONDON] February 26, 2025.
The London-based (the UK) indie games publísher Kepler Interactive, Taiwan-based indie games studio Psychoflow Studio, and Finland-based solo indie games developer Mureena (Juhana Myllys), today announced that their sci-fi platforming adventure “Bionic Bay“, is now coming to PC (via Steam) and the PS5 (via PSN) on April 13th, 2025.

This was done in-order to give them time to add a bit of extra polish. Furthermore, a brand-new demo spotlighting the thrilling online mode will be released on Steam in the coming weeks. This sneak peek lets players dive into Bionic Bay Online, where they can tackle speedrun challenges, race against player ghosts, and climb the global leaderboards.

Bionic Bay is a truly unique pixel-platformer that puts players in the shoes of a scientist stranded in a mysterious biomechanical world where realism meets stunning pixel art. Packed with clever, physics-based gameplay and meticulously hand-crafted levels, it introduces players to core mechanics like The Swap, Time Freeze, and Power Fist to creatively manipulate the environment and overcome hazards at every turn. The world is full of ancient yet advanced tech, from bouncy force rays and super magnets to temporal anomalies and anti-gravity liquids. For fans of classic platformers, there are ropes to swing from, explosives to detonate, and trusty old rusty pipes to navigate.

Bionic Bay is the passion project of a small but dedicated team, committed to crafting a mesmerizing experience, an effort that was recently recognized with the Best Game Design Award at Taipei Game Show, and launches on April 17th for PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam. For more insight into how this unique indie game is being developed, fans can follow the official Bionic Bay X channel and get an even more behind-the-scenes look at the development on Juhana Myllys X account.
