About This Game

Galactic Thunderdome is a platform brawler about fighting in a dynamic, chaotic, physics-based world. With a vast selection of diverse items, a cast of unique characters, and a variety of game modes, GTD is a monumental playground of cartoonish havoc built upon a foundation of simulated physics.

Play with or against your friends across 45+ levels with 85 items in one of several game modes:

  • Battle your friends in classic Deathmatch & Team Deathmatch modes

  • Race each other to escape with the golden idol in Treasure Hunt

  • Hold the line and survive together against an endless horde in Last Stand

  • Prove your mettle by conquering the two single-player Gauntlets

It is no easy feat to bend the chaos to your will and distill victory from the gnarly havoc of the Thunderdome, but it is your fate and duty as a Galactic Combatant to tame the mayhem or die trying!

Supports up to 8 players locally. Also compatible with Steam Remote Play, which allows up to 5 people to play together through streaming multiplayer (controllers required for all but the host). Features in-game UI for Remote Play multiplayer.

GTD is set in the distant future where civilizations from around the galactic confederation come together to hold the deadliest and most esteemed tournament in history: the Galactic Thunderdome. Combatants arrive from all corners of the galaxy and all epochs of time to compete in a variety of harrowing events in an effort to become the Galactic Thunder Champion and bring glory to their cosmic homelands, while their televised deeds in the Thunderdome are broadcast into every living room in the celestial realm.
