About the Game


EXTREME EVOLUTION: Drive to Divinity is an expressive platformer where every obstacle has countless, overlapping solutions. Set free in sprawling spaces, the experiment evolves and grows.
  • Use § to transform between known forms at any time; invent movement combos.
  • Discover new evolutionary forms, often in temples... at greater § costs.
  • Collect raw § to permanently increase max §.
  • Enter holes to unlock new Sites.
  • The experiment hustles, hurtles towards Earth.

String transformations together, performing extreme combos through the environment. Take big jumps as Car, fling junk as Pump, ricochet as the bouncy Bomp, cling upside down as Spide, fling thyself as Tire, etc... in Extreme Evolution, explorative biology demands exploitation.

EEE: the Extreme Evolution Experiment. The Gods capitulate and call out, driving Extreme Evolution. The nutrient rich Body, the perfect Digital Way, the abject Nothing, Infinite Spirits, Lies, and the Ouroboros: essential stopgaps along the Drive to Divinity. Inside each a Subjective! divine seal; these six seals lock away the last/first known (Human) planet (Earth).

Movement as the original power; the ultimate story of mitochondrial evolution concludes in Extreme Evolution: Drive to Divinity.

Photosensitivity warning: This game features many procedural visual effects & post-processing, including multi-color rapid flashing and/or strobing. The most extreme effects can be reduced with settings in-game, but cannot be turned off fully.
Configure visuals with Sharp mode, Reduced Animation, and Simplified Backgrounds.
