Genotype

Genotype is a Metroidvania FPS adventure set in an abandoned laboratory in Antarctica, where monstrous beasts have overrun the facility. As the station’s sole survivor, you explore its interconnected maps, print living creatures to use as weapons and survival tools, and uncover the story of the research station’s downfall through a fully voice-acted narrative.

Explore the facility

You can move freely through the open world, finding items and unlocking new creatures to print that open up paths. The facility also holds lore for you to discover. Use the Brainlink to morph into a tiny creature and enter narrow vents, or use the Grubber to rip obstacles apart.

Fight and upgrade

Genotype features five weaponized creatures with different uses. You use them through your gloves, and can upgrade both the creatures and the gloves that wield them. The alien ecosystem includes enemies with distinct behaviors, combat spaces that test your abilities and intense boss fights.

Difficulty and options

Choose from four difficulty settings, which determine balanced amounts of loot and ammunition costs. The game also offers a diverse upgrade system with multiple play-style options and multiple accessibility options. Atmospheric synth-scapes and voice acting accompany the adventure.
