Dualism

Dualism is a wave-based shoot ’em up where you fight enemies and bosses while choosing upgrades that shape each playthrough.

Color and combat

The game’s white-and-black mechanic makes opposing colors damage you and matching colors heal you. You can absorb shots of the correct color and unleash a barrage of homing missiles. Attacks include shooting, smashing enemies, and using electricity, bombs, blasts, poison and effects that slow or otherwise disrupt them.

Upgrades and bosses

Each playthrough lets you choose new evolutionary paths and take upgrades along them. Upgrades can stack exponentially, allowing you to become increasingly powerful. You also face bosses with a range of capabilities.
