Squillamorph is a challenging 2D pixel art platformer. Pursued by hordes of brutal enemies, you must use your parasitic ability to 'infest' and take control of them. Fight back, survive, and you might just discover your purpose.
The game uses a mix of traditional and procedural animation to bring its world to life. It was originally created for a final major project at the University for the Creative Arts by a team of three.
Fight
Waves of enemies will do everything they can to destroy you. Use your 'Infest' ability to take control of enemies and fight back. Killing enemies will provide points, which can be used to unlock the path forward. Progress through the hostile world and discover new creatures to use in the endless battle for survival.
Survive
Creatures in the world are unrelenting in their efforts to destroy the parasite. Survival is tough, and fast thinking is needed to out-manoeuvre your enemies. Survive fights against monstrous bosses and be rewarded with mutagens that will upgrade your abilities.
Discover
Why were you created? Why do other creatures seek to destroy you? Why are you being observed at every step of your journey? What is your purpose? Questions such as these can only be answered through curiosity, determination, and discovery.
