About the Game

Mutation Overload is a skill-based action roguelite in which you play as a mad scientist who, not knowing a better use of his time, tests which monster mutations will be challenging enough for him.

MAIN FEATURES

  • Sawblade, Mechafists, Chaingun - Use these and more weapons to defeat enemies on your way forward

  • Dozens of unique mutations to choose from for your enemies

  • Multiple monsters and deadly bosses to face

  • Endless rooms and corridors filled with traps and monsters underground your crazy lab

  • Skill trees for long term character upgrades

CHOOSE MUTATIONS

At the end of each level, you have three paths to choose from. Each path grants your opponents a different mutation (and a small reward, as a consolation prize). The mutations you choose remain active for subsequent levels. Try to choose them wisely to overcome them.

PRINT YOURSELF BACK TO LIFE

Nothing terrible happens when you die (except maybe you feel defeated). You just print yourself back together on your flesh-3D printer and keep having fun.

GET BODY AND WEAPON UPGRADES

To aid you in combat, you can choose from body upgrades that are permanent, as well as weapon upgrades that you earn throughout a single playthrough.

EACH RUN IS UNIQUE

Mutations at the end of a level won't be the same from one playthrough to the next. The same goes for the weapons, their upgrades, and the layout of rooms and traps.
