7 itemsAbout the Game
Gene must collect genetic mutations to help him on his way to finding his ship pieces and stolen gems. Each mutation offers a different skill identified through his colour changing outfits. Part of the challenge is in knowing the right mutation for a specific job. You must frequently change between mutations during the levels to find your way through.
