What do you think?

damn fine Metroidvania. Love the visuals, music, and movement. i do recommend adding mouse aiming. The game is really hard, but a healthy challenge for me. PLEASE make this game stand out. I'm really excited to see what you do with this.

Loved the demo, can't wait till the whole thing comes out.

very nice. i loved the demo

Hey I'm a music producer and I offer my services as a soundtrack maker or sound designer, I'm also a sound Engineer, interested in horror games primarily. Be free to contact me. You can find my work on any digital platform as Fabe Zet or Youtube. Bless!

Signed up just to tell you, I downloaded and immensely enjoyed the demo. Really want to play the rest of it because I think it has real potential in both design, story and mechanics. Keep up the good work.

Zordak is a game heavily inspired by Super Metroid.

You explore, find items that help you along the way, discover secrets and more.

You wake up from an unexpectedly long cryosleep, only to discover that this place is not what it's supposed to be.

Everyone is dead and the facility has been abandoned.

You seem to be the only survivor.

You now have to do what you must to survive and embark on your journey in the search for another human being.

Minimum System Requirements:

This means running the game at 60FPS with frame skipping on (visually 30FPS) and the lowest possible graphical settings.

Processor: 1.8Ghz Dual Core
Memory: 1GB RAM
Graphics: Intel GMA 4500M

The specs above are just similar to what my test computer has.
(Acer Aspire 5332 from 2009)
So they are not necessarily required, test the demo for yourself.

OS:
- Windows 10. (untested on any other version)
- Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS. (tested in a VM, info in README file)

Windows:
- 32bit executable. (only 64bit will be supported next release)
- DirectX 11.
- Keyboard and Controller support available.

Linux:
- 64bit executable.
- Required dependencies are listed in the zip file.
- Keyboard support available.

- Controller support is mixed, you may have to use the keyboard to re-bind certain controller buttons and some buttons might not be detected properly.
This all depends on controller type as well since all controllers are different.

- Frame Skip does not behave properly so minimum system requirements will be higher.​

Install instructions:

1 - Download the zip.
2 - Extract.
3 -
Windows: Run Zordak.exe / Zordak_YYC.exe, info in README file.
