Pathogenic

I wasn't expecting to become emotionally invested in the life of a microscopic parasite, yet here we are. Pathogenic takes the "one more run" formula and injects it directly into your bloodstream. The concept is brilliant: you play as the disease, harvesting organelles from defeated enemies, evolving into increasingly absurd biological monstrosities, and waging war against the immune system. It's basically what would happen if Spore's cell stage, The Binding of Isaac, and a biology textbook decided to make a roguelike together. The build variety is fantastic. Every run feels like an experiment that somehow spirals into controlled chaos, and discovering broken synergies is half the fun. The soft-body visuals make everything feel satisfyingly organic, the soundtrack fits perfectly, and the different organs each have their own personality and challenges. What really impressed me is how polished it feels. The controls are responsive, progression is rewarding, and it's the kind of game where you tell yourself "just one more run" and suddenly it's 2 AM and you've accidentally become the apex predator of someone's circulatory system. For an indie title, this is an incredible achievement. It's creative, addictive, surprisingly charming, and packed with replayability. If you enjoy roguelikes, bullet heavens, or just like discovering hilariously overpowered builds, this is an easy recommendation. 10/10. My immune system now feels personally offended every time I launch the game.

Who could have guessed that internal human anatomy was a mid 90's glowstick rave? Biology is fascinating. 10/10

I rarely do reviews but I felt a bit compelled to leave one for this because it's so good. I'm a huge roguelike fan and I've sunk hundreds of hours into The Binding of Isaac, Dead Cells, and so on. For many years Isaac was my go to but I was finally burning out on it after an embarrassing number of hours. Pathogenic has officially taken its place as my new daily roguelike. This game just feels so good to play and the builds you can create are so satisfying with the combinations of weapons and organelles to modify them as well as your organism. Controls feel great, the aesthetic is unique and interesting, the music is solid, and so on. Definitely challenging but fair. It's just so much fun to play if you are into the whole shooter vibe. I cannot recommend this game enough.

demo刚出的时候，光demo就玩了100多小时，虽然demo也是有些bug但是瑕不掩瑜。 正式作出来后稍稍浅唱一下，神作无疑

Как студент биофака, я рад, что смог создать бактерию-шахеда

very fun game. good time. very exciting

看得像借以撒的，土根 胎儿博士 十字雷说是，发展潜力很大。 但现阶段道具少，某些武器数值升到传奇也打不过心脏，要赢必须要拿“高阶道具” 数值设计可以说非常不合理了。而高阶道具又没有以撒那种多样性，要么很容易无聊，要么道具很拉很无力。 弹幕方面敌人感觉没有什么问题，追踪弹恶心归恶心，毕竟是加大难度的。 但这个闪避，这个全身判定点……闪避跟着鞭毛走的？反正有个最小闪避距离。谁不想急头白脸闪避到心脏上吃一圈大红光，“抗生素中”难度下，酣畅淋漓rewind十几次终于干完了心脏，敌人血量真不能加（。再加上鞭毛妨碍移动这一块，可以说移动非常怪了，时不时还会bug卡在血管壁上，使劲按空格一点都不动，小退可解。判定点跟着自己体型来的，体型越大 判定越大，伤害吃满了
