While I'm preparing a larger showcase for the game, here's a quick teaser for some of the environments.

Hm, what's that mysterious hatch?

And why was it hidden under a crate?

Could it be ... a secret?

Yes, yes it's a secret. Good job, Sherlock!

Mutator of the day - "Vampirism"
Sunlight slowly drains your health, so when outdoors best keep to your Mech. Or use the vampirism-enhanced melee strike to leech health from your foes!

Mutator of the day - "Spontaneous Self-Combustion":
Enemies blow up when killed, setting the stage on fire and causing all sorts of collateral damage!

Alternate Realities - The Mutator System

When reality breaks down the Mutator System changes game rules unpredictably. Weird things can happen!
Starting a little Mutator showcase - today: "Dark Shroud".

Enemies are wrapped in an armor of darkness!

Better suit up - they got Mechs too!

Besides your own Mech you can also hijack enemy Mechs if you manage to kill the pilot!

Status effects now have ways to mitigate their damage, like dashing to quench flames when on fire.

Also: started a YT channel to showcase stuff outside of tiny GIFs. Actual playthroughs coming up!

Working on menus atm!
The main challenge now is illustrating the planet being gradually consumed by the Quantum Aberration Vortex.
It's the vortex that is shattering reality and is responsible for the different gameplay mutators and everchanging levels.

Fun or Nuisance?

I have a Modifier system that flips some game rules on their head, and now changed it from opt-in to mandatory - to better pronounce the Reality Collapsing idea of the game.

Would love some feedback!
