Combat System
Parasite Mutant uses ATC (Active Time Chains) which combines the popular Active Time Battle system used in RPGs of the late-90s and a three-segment chain system. Players will need to time their actions on each segments and decide whether they want to save their energy and do a chain release. As the gauge fills up, players will need to dodge enemy attacks and launch their attack at the best possible time.
Art Style
Parasite Mutant uses a semi-realistic anime art style and utilizes modern rendering techniques to give our players a HD visual experience. Additionally, we have introduced a retro filter and CRT filter to bring players back that late-90s to 2000s vibe.
