About the Game

It is the future. Video games are dead. 

War has left the world polluted with microscopic autonomous robots. These drones enter the bloodstream and consume the organs and life-force of their host.

This deadly disease is known as RUST.

Instead of games, players are hired by the rich to remotely pilot fast nano ships to blast the Rust.

These guns-for-hire are called Cell Swords.

  • Fast-paced, mind-bending, stomach-churning action shooter with intuitive controls

  • 6DOF freedom to fly in any direction evoking classic games like Descent

  • Rampaging single player campaign across 14 missions

  • Unusual setting inside the human body

  • Upgradable ship and weapons

  • Advanced game engine techniques including volumetric fog and 3D physics

  • A variety of intelligent enemies ranging from small platoons that coordinate to hordes

  • 5 difficulty levels, from easy to insane and including a story mode for more casual players

  • Medallion system for precision gameplay and speedruns

  • Remappable controls (keyboard and gamepads)

  • Toggleable cockpit and 3rd-person views

  • An epic story

Please let us know in our Steam forum of any accessibility features or tweaks that would make Cell Sword a great experience for you.

"It's Descent but inside the human body!" -- Developer

"It's hilarious and dark but also a solid shooter." -- Also the developer

"Have you seen the film Fantastic Voyage? Or Inner Space? No? Yeah, well, I love those too." -- Still the developer

"If you're looking for a video game like Cells At Work or that episode of Rick and Morty (Anatomy Park) then I guess maybe Cell Sword?" -- the developer still going

Trailer music is "Spider Pants (with Grace)" by WangleLine.
