Cosmic Match-3

Hypar-Style Development

About this game

Cosmic Match-3 is a puzzle game built around classic match-three mechanics in a space and astronomy setting. Swap adjacent tiles to form lines of three or more identical symbols. Each match clears tiles from the board, adds to your score, and triggers gravity so new tiles fall from above. The game focuses on clear rules and straightforward feedback: every valid move has an immediate effect, and the board keeps refilling until you reach the level goal.

The visual style is restrained and space-inspired. Backgrounds use deep blues and dark tones with subtle starfields; tiles are simple astronomical symbols (stars, planets, moon, earth, comet, galaxy) shown as clean icons. There are no bright neon colors or cartoon effects. The aim is a calm, consistent look that fits the theme without feeling loud or distracting.

Progress is structured across ten levels with rising difficulty. Early levels use smaller grids and lower score targets; later ones use larger boards and stricter move limits. Each level starts from zero points and has its own target; the board is generated at random so no two runs feel the same. You advance by reaching the required score before running out of moves, with no timers or pressure mechanics.

Scoring is transparent: three in a row award a fixed amount, four or five in a row award more, and chained matches after a single swap increase a combo multiplier. Your only constraint is the number of moves per level. Progress is saved locally so you can stop and resume without losing unlocked levels or completion state. *

The experience is built for short sessions and repeat play. Menus are minimal: start a run, choose a level, or continue where you left off. There is no background music; sound effects are optional. Cosmic Match-3 is aimed at players who want a no-fuss match-three puzzle with a consistent space theme and clear, predictable rules.
