Failed Experiment XXV
Jump from host to host, stealing abilities as you fight to survive against hordes of enemies.
- Action Combat
- Level Up
- Acquire new and unique genetic traits
You are Failed Experiment XXV, deemed unworthy and cast down by your scientist masters. But their hubris will be their folly, as you will claw your way out of the muck. Destroy all the other failed experiments and escape the forsaken and derelict underbelly of this machine world.
Evolve into the ultimate weapon.

the art is cool, feels like more polish could be added , like actual lightning instead of just a flash light, the concept is cool to take over the host, but I think it probably needs to be expanded on as your hook, as you can actually switch characters , so you would constantly jump around destroying stuff, the beat is also pretty sick
For anyone who's interested, here is the victory cutscene and credits that are unviewable due to the win condition logic being broken:

At risk of disqualifying ourselves by editing our itch page or game atm, here's a post-submission PSA:
Win state is unfortunately broken, so waves just stop spawning at 10 minutes.
Drain CAN kill you. Beware, kids.
Though we really wanted to, there are NO level ups or power progression. So, we lied through our teeth in that description, lol. We had every intention to, but it met the chopping block during crunch time.
Cool! I was wondering how to win after 10 minutes, haha.
