A music-themed platformer. Symphonia stars Philemon, a violinist traversing a musical world, assembling an orchestra to stop the silence the land is falling into.
Symphonia is a platformer tasking us with saving a musical world. It was developed by an indie studio Sunny Peak and published by Headup Publishing.
Symphonia is set in a fantasy world, powered and made alive through the power of music. When its founders and its orchestra vanish, the world falls silent. We play as a violinist Philemon, heading out on a journey to gather a new orchestra and restore life to the collapsing world.
Symphonia is a side-scroller. The players must traverse diverse, colorful, atmospheric stages. On our way, we must jump across platforms, avoid traps and obstacles. Our violin comes in handy during exploration and activating musical machinery, restoring life and energy to the world. Along the way we'll meet numerous NPCs, many of which are great musicians; it's up to us to convince them to join our orchestra.
Symphonia features colorful, cartoonish graphics. One of the game's greatest strengths is its soundtrack, composed by Olivier Esman and performed by the Scoring Orchestra of Paris.

Game Ratings for Symphonia Video Game.
DualShockers: 8 / 10 by Callum Marshall
Symphonia is a sleeper hit that I can only hope will soon take the platforming genre by storm. The platforming mechanics here are refined, satisfying, and a joy to master. Which is only accented by the incredible art direction that serves as eye candy as you go. This symphonic-inspired world is a treat for the eyes and ears, with level design that walks the tightrope between challenging and satisfying with aplomb. And while the narrative present here hits a bum note, I can wholeheartedly recommend Symphonia to any platforming fanatic.

Symphonia is a stunning debut from Sunny Peak that breathes fresh life into the platforming genre. Its gorgeous hand-drawn art, enchanting music, and unique non-violent gameplay make it a standout title. While its precision-focused mechanics might not appeal to everyone, it offers enough accessibility options and charm to win over most players. The challenge didn’t always click for me, verging a little too close to frustrating at times. But for fans of artistic platformers or those looking for something fresh and innovative, Symphonia is well worth picking up.
Hey Poor Player: 4 / 5 by Josh Speer
Despite a few rare missteps, I still very much enjoyed Symphonia. I’ve played several games published by Headup Games, but this is one of the best. It’s colorful, whimsical and features precise and fluid controls. If it had just been a little bit longer and offered more reasons to keep playing (other than the infuriating Shadow Chase mode), I think it would have gotten a perfect score. As it stands, fans of platforming that are in the mood for a quick burn should absolutely check this musical adventure out.
