About the Game

A small but fun stealth platformer! Geneticognito is a short but sweet experience, where you navigate through increasingly difficult levels while trying not to be spotted. Each level has it's own hectic boss fight at the end, as you follow Rane and her escape from Sky Facility.

During the attack on a mysterious facility in the sky, an experiment called Rane gets the chance to escape. However, to make it outside she'll have to pass through all the dangerous areas of the facility, fight hostile genetic experiments, and defeat the ones who've held her captive.

After having been contained there for years, she'll use the full extent of her abilities to make it out and gain her freedom!

What is Geneticognito?

Geneticognito is a 2D platformer with combat and stealth mechanics. Levels consist of hazards that can either damage Rane directly, or detect her. If Rane is detected, security robots will appear through doors, and the exit door to the level locks itself. Rane may fight the security robots and shoot them down, but unlimited amounts of robots will continue spawning while in Alert state. So stealth is important!
