Released yesterday, the 23rd, Exophobia is a retro-inspired first-person shooter (FPS) developed by Zarc Attack and published by PM Studios, Inc. In this game, players explore and fight in a crashed human spaceship infested with relentless hordes of aliens. With weapon upgrades and exciting power-ups, the game offers a thrilling and nostalgic experience, combining modern metroidvania-style progression with colorful pixel art and intense electronic music.

In Exophobia, you are alone in a spaceship taken over by hostile alien soldiers. Your goal is to explore the ship, fight enemies, and find the last human survivors. As you progress, you uncover the past of the spaceship's crew and the circumstances that led to the current state of emergency on the red planet. The evolution of your alien weapon is crucial, allowing you to shoot, slide, and stun your enemies effectively.

The game emphasizes the importance of quick reflexes and strategic positioning. Each enemy has specific behaviors, and you must learn to use them to your advantage by utilizing your weapon, movement options, and the environment to eliminate groups of alien armies. Exploration is rewarded with the discovery of multiple floors of the ship, each presenting a unique hostile environment filled with secrets.

Exophobia also challenges players with its unforgiving yet fair difficulty. Battles include enemies with unique attack patterns and threatening boss fights, each requiring specific strategies to defeat. Upgrading your weapon in specialized labs is essential to unlock new areas and advance in the game. Don't forget to save your progress at checkpoints, as dying is part of the challenging experience Exophobia offers.
