Solid roguelike gameplay with graphics that definitely feel otherworldly. Also, who did the sick battle theme music? They’re some bangers!
OMG thanks, to be honest I’ve been so self-conscious about the music and waited for someone to say something about it :D I used to compose music but I’m a little rusty so I wasn’t sure if it wasn’t too much.
I loved the pokemon style fighting and the art was really good
Hehe, thanks! I guess those hundreds of hours spent grinding to beat the Elite Four are showing 😀 I love the enemy characters, it’s a shame Honza, the artist, didn’t have the time to do all of the graphics.
The narration and the atmosphere was immersive, the turn-combat along with the upgrades was quite a nice touch as well.
Thanks! I’ve spent most of the time with the lore and in the end I realized there is no real narration mechanism, apart from those short messages, so I guess people have to use their own imagination a lot.
It's a neat idea, I liked the concept of gene manipulation, do you get to control multiple characters at once at any point?
Thanks! To be honest I haven’t thought of that. There could be a skilltree upgrade that fundamentally changes the strain you’re playing as, but there are so many things to tweak right now, it’s very early.
