Such an insanely fun game. The sheer amount of things to unlock and tweak your visuals, weapons, ship, bullets, background, music, is daunting in a good way xD

This game is great!

Dev: microbes spawn off the left and right screen edges if you play shmup mode on a portrait screen, leading to hits from microbes you cant see.

Buy this game. Also buy Cell Command. Also buy Genome Guardian 2. Delete all of your other videogames. You won't need them anymore.

One of the strangest Roguelites I've ever played.

Not because it's bad or anything but because of the sheer amount of CONTENT. You're likely to spend like, actual days just grinding through all the stuff Genome Guardian has to offer and nowadays there are plenty of Roguelites, or even just games in general that feature a lot of content but for me GG feels different. There's new stuff around every corner, you're constantly unlocking things and trying out new builds and seeing new weapons and mods and it's insane how people hundreds of hours in can STILL see brand new things.

10/10, please buy it, play it, whatever. If you like this one, the sequel is literally the exact same thing with 10x the amount of content.

Oh, and the Developer is one of the nicest people ever and despite having a very large community they still manage to treat each of their fans like actual people. They feel like a friend more than a developer and I really appreciate that. You don't get many people nowadays willing to read every review and go through every suggestion.

Really just a fantastic game. Very simple and pretty complex at the same time. And the music makes things exciting as you get into the deeper levels. Plus just love the whole vibrant neon colors.
