Pathogenic is a 2D roguelike twin-stick shooter where you embody a dangerous parasite. Your mission is to infect and conquer the human body from the inside, evolving from a simple cell into a devastating engine of disease.

GameplayThis roguelike features intense twin-stick combat where you hunt enemy cells to harvest their parts. You graft these organelles onto your own body to gain new abilities, from movement and power generation to ranged and melee attacks.
