It’s a roguelite done right in every sense of the word and is one that deserves every recognition it gets and then some.
This the definition of a Steam Early Access success. HyperParasite excites and delights every time you play it.
The wait has been worth it!
Give to Parasite a chance and have fun destroying the world!
HyperAddictive!
Addictive! This Parasite can end up assimilating yoo too!
If you miss and like arcade games, HyperParasite is the title you are looking for!
Few rogue-like games have grabbed my attention quite like HyperParasite has
One of the freshest takes on the genre around!
Hyperparasite is an enjoyable twin-stick shooter with loads of character, sorry, characters. It’s humorous and fun. But it’s also painfully unforgiving.
HyperParasite is rogue-lite at its best. Never one to flock to the genre, I kept coming back for more of the hyper action and colorful cast of characters. Every weapon feels great!
The game was made to make sense, but rather, to have fun; and it does a great job accomplishing this task!
HyperParasite is everything every twin-stick shooter should be. The creators took the same tried and tested method of game genres and made it feel exciting, new and rewarding
Anyone who wants to achieve something must die
SYNOPSIS
It’s the 80’s all over again. Only this time, the human race has more than an obnoxious pop culture to contend with.
With World War III nearing its demise, Earth only just begins to catch its breath when it is threatened by yet another menace. Unlike the preposterous mullets of its inhabitants however, this one’s invisible – a parasitic organism capable of making hosts of unsuspecting human beings, consuming what’s left of their souls and wreaking unfathomable havoc.
And it’s spreading. With a vengeance.
Martial laws have been declared to make way for a global hunt, battle-hardened law enforcers have made allies of the most degenerate of criminals, while the rest of the world is paralysed with paranoia; yet who can be trusted? Who can see it, let alone destroy it? That’s for them to worry about. For you are the enemy.
You are the organism with a mission. You are… HyperParasite.
Snatch. Zap. Repeat.
FEATURES
Relentless top-down, shoot ‘em up action!
Being able to snatch the bodies of nearly every weapon-wielding homosapien you encounter ensures bullet hell almost never ceases.
Intelligent zapping!
A happy trigger-finger alone won’t suffice; multiple character classes, host-specific abilities and a skill-based progression system means you’ll be working to one-up the human race even without bullets.
Extreme level re-playability
Procedurally generated levels, multiple game-play objectives, grueling waves of enemies and deranged bosses, all while the possibility of perma-death looms; prepare to die. A lot.
Co-operative Gameplay
Too intense? Bring a friend!
Nostalgia
…perpetuated by a unique 3D-pixelated art style, absurdly bright neons, obnoxious styling and robotic synthesizer sounds. It’s the roaring 80’s alright, with a dash of dystopia.
