From Jeppe Carlsen, the lead gameplay designer of LIMBO and INSIDE — COCOON takes you on an adventure across worlds within worlds. Master world-leaping mechanics to unravel a cosmic mystery.
Worlds within Worlds
COCOON is a unique take on the puzzle adventure genre, where each world exists within an orb that you can carry on your back. Wrap your head around the core mechanic of leaping between worlds—and combine, manipulate, and rearrange them to solve intricate puzzles.
Alien Machinery
Interact with alien environments and biomechanical devices left behind by an ancient civilization. Journey through unique and diverse biomes, from industrial structures to massive organic caverns, and discover how they are connected to one another.
Orb Abilities
Each orb has an ability that can be unlocked, thereby turning the orb into a unique tool for you to utilize within other worlds. Use these abilities to uncover hidden pathways and objects, fire projectiles to trigger switches, and more.
Monstrous Guardians
Mighty guardians protect every world, and you must face them in fierce battles. Each fight is unique and requires you to master new and satisfying mechanics.
Cocoon is a single-player puzzle game. The game begins with the player controlling a small insect-like creature emerging in a barren desert. With no spoken dialogue or text, the setting and objectives are conveyed entirely through visuals and environmental cues. The protagonist journeys across alien landscapes filled with mysterious technology, shifting ecosystems, and monumental structures. The central goal is to uncover the secrets of interconnected worlds contained within glowing orbs, each harboring its own rules and environments.
Gameplay focuses on exploration and puzzle-solving. The player carries orbs that function as both tools and entire self-contained worlds. Placing an orb in specific devices opens pathways or triggers mechanisms, while entering the orb transports the player into its miniature world. This creates layers of puzzles that span across dimensions, where manipulating one orb may alter the state of another. Progression requires learning the unique logic of each orb, combining them, and moving fluidly between worlds to solve increasingly complex challenges.
Each orb introduces its own properties. One may grant access to hidden bridges, another could reveal light-sensitive platforms, while another alters gravity or mobility. These mechanics build upon one another, forcing the player to think spatially and track cause-and-effect across several interconnected puzzles. Combat is minimal but present in the form of large biomechanical guardians. These encounters play out as environmental boss puzzles, where survival depends on using the available tools and arena features rather than traditional fighting.
