Cellforge
 is a fast cellular roguelite. You are a single cell. You don't find weapons: you build chain reactions inside your own cytoplasm.

Forge your cell

Between rooms, place organelles on a hex grid. A source (on impact, on kill, every pulse…) sends an impulse through its outputs; every effect it touches fires, then passes the impulse on, 12 % stronger at each step. Rotate pieces, aim outputs, chain six steps deep — and watch it all go off in the arena.


Discover reactions

Some effects react with each other: fire into explosions, frost into lightning, spores into poison… Find the combos, name them, abuse them.


Devour to grow

Weakened enemies can be absorbed to steal their organelles. Defeated enemies drop nucleotides to spend at the counter: rare organelles, new cells for your membrane, more ATP. Push past your ATP limit if you dare — an unstable cell mutates.
