In this Metroidvania FPS adventure, you explore an abandoned lab in Antarctica overrun by monstrous beasts. Print living creatures to use as weapons and survival tools, and take part in a fully voice-acted story as the facility’s sole survivor guides you through an alien ecosystem… but what role did he play in the research station’s downfall?
We’ve been hard at work since launch — and we’ve just released a huge update that greatly improves the combat! Some of the changes:
🔫 5 new radically different weaponized creatures 💪 New upgrade system giving you more choice in how you deal with enemies 🚧 Improved combat spaces to enhance your adrenaline flow 👾 New enemies, fine-tuned behaviors, and better boss fights 💰 Rebalanced loot amounts and ammo costs 🥵 Four difficulty settings 🦾 Many accessibility options 📝 Even more lore to find in the facility ➕ Atmospheric synth-scapes, resolution equal to PCVR, and much more.
Morph into a tiny creature to go into narrow vents by using the Brainlink, or rip obstacles apart with the Grubber. The open world lets you move freely across interconnected maps. Open up new paths by unlocking new creatures to print or finding new items.
Slay enemies, then upgrade your weaponized creatures and the gloves that wield them. When the alien ecosystem fights back, the weapon creatures you print with your gloves will determine your survival.
Genotype is a beautiful Meta Quest 2 game, optimized and updated for Meta Quest 3 and Oculus Rift.
Creativity and Quality. When I first saw the living weapons, I thought back to how much I enjoyed Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, and that's really all I needed to be interested. When I got the game, I didn't really know what to expect and was happily surprised to find a high-end story driven Metroid style game.
There was 1 glitch that I encountered the entire time in which I entered a room, but all the doors were red as of there were enemies, then I had to walk through the only open door, which would then close. At that point, I could go back into the room and leave any way I wanted. Weird, but not at all harmful, and took only an extra few seconds to work around. This single glitch makes this the most glitch free game I've ever played on Quest 2 or 3! So congrats on a job well done. The previous winner was Puzzling Places, and I really didn't expect such an elaborate game to be so well done on Quest. That's sad, but when even the highest end, Walking Dead 2 was a game breaking glitch fest, it starts to ruin the whole thing. So your team is restoring my faith that quality VR can be made, and for a shockingly good price.
So, excellent gameplay, great story, great voice acting, fantastic moody synth music here and there, awesome price, fun weapons, cool creepy baddies, and all-around fun. It took me a little under 6 hours.
I really hope there will be a Genotype 2, but I'll definitely keep an eye on this team.
Top Notch VR Game! This game is fantastic. I just completed it and can't wait to replay it. It has the feel of Metroid Prime. The story was entertaining, compelling, and mysterious. The gameplay was smooth and bug free. I thoroughly enjoyed this game and highly recommend it!
