About This Game



SUBJECT ON THE RUN!

You’re tired of being a labrat, so you make a run for it. Sure, you made it out of your cell, but it's not that easy! The entire facility is on high alert and, to get a taste of freedom, you must fight your way through the deadly WASP army. It’s time to use the mutations they planned to exploit against them!





Project XSTING is a sci-fi survival roguelite game with comic-style graphics and cyberpunk vibes. At the start of each run, you begin your escape from a random point on the map and must battle through an increasing number of enemies. Do everything you can to survive and defeat the bosses. Don't worry about overly complicated controls—just enjoy the thrill of the fight!




Every character has a base range and melee attack at their disposal. Since each protagonist suffers from a unique mutation, the style of their melee and ranged attacks varies in both visuals and scope. Therefore, your character choice significantly affects gameplay.



The key is to use these attacks to eliminate enemies and collect their life force to access power-ups, allowing you to develop your character's mutation differently during each run.




You're pitted against the highly-trained armed security forces of the H.I.V.E. Medical Corp.



They are skilled and deadly, using a variety of weapons. In addition, you must face and defeat five increasingly dangerous bosses.





You can choose to play in different stages, each offering a different visual experience. Better yet? If you’re looking for hardcore challenges, some of the stages (or stage levels) come with additional environmental hurdles.



You can also use the elements in your surroundings strategically to aid your escape. For istance:

Natural obstacles, such as rocks and trees, can be used to break down or slow down the swarms.



Areas highlighted by enemy-dispatched drones, designed to aid the enemy, can be used against them. Anyone entering the affected area suffers the consequences.

As a fan of roguelike/roguelite games, this was a good find popping into my DQ. The unique mechanic of each stage (the darkness level really impressed me) and the drones effects are a nice twist in the survivorlike games. Being twin stick is also a big plus for me! The bosses have nice visuals and also create a very nice progression. Amazing game with amazing soundtrack and visuals. Curious about the growth on the Early Access.

Pretty fun roguelike game similar to Vampire Survivors with its own unique twist + graphic style with comic book style bubbles + boss battles + maps with different mechanics + audio and the soundtrack + overall game feel - a bit limited character builds; I think that melee builds cannot compete with ranged piercing/ricochet attacks in mid/late game, defensive options could also be a bit more exciting - FPS drops in main menu - no controller support - madness mode is pure RNG, I feel like drones shouldn't activate instantly but give the player a chance to react Looking forward to the game's development in early access

This game is fun! I haven’t played any of its genre so far but I’m converted. It’s a total adrenaline rush xD Also really love the wasp (or is it bee?) theme. There’s a good variety of maps and the character play experience is completely different. Lots of potential! Can’t wait to get better and survive the bosses 😜

Great game, there is a nice variety of enemies and very original bosses. I love the 90s vibe and the comics style the game has going. The drone mechanic is a nice twist to the genres. It's extremely addictive. Can't wait to see what's coming next.

I'm not much of a fan of roguelites but I really liked the look of it so I thought I would give it a try. Was a bit challenging at the start cause I really didn't know what to do haha but I ended up binge playing for hours! SO MUCH FUN. I'm addicted! The characters are completeley different (42 is my fav to play with) and I love the different environments... all those things chnage the experience and gameplay. There're so many cool upgrades and the act they look like floppy discs is a really nice idea. Personally, I wanna highlight two things specifically! First, the graphics (the colors, the details, the comic KAPOWs...), it's just beautiful. Secondly, the music, each character has it's own soundtrack and it somehow works very nicely, I thought I would get bothered by it as I usually do.. but it just fits and doesn't feel repetitive or boring. Love it. I think it's one the more complete early access games I've seen. Recommend!

Glad I listened to my friend’s recommendation. The game is really find and very addictive! I’m absolutely in LOVE the comics visual and very creative bosses. Also, the recent balance updates bring the adrenaline on much faster, I can’t wait to see what they bring next. Personally, I would like to see more of the maps with challenges like the dark one and the freezing, that’s is crazy! And maybe some more bosses cause I like how unique they are.
