Description
About This Game
PLAN. PREDICT. EXECUTE.
Step into a surreal experiment where captive bio-organic entities are pitted against each other. Compulse is a simultaneous tactical roguelite where you'll build a squad of Compulsors and throw them into a brutal test of evolution and mutation. Plan your moves, predict the enemy's, then watch both squads act at once, turn after turn. Steal your opponents' power to survive and see the final experiment through to the end.
HIGH-INTENSITY CHAOS
No waiting, no downtime: both teams move at the exact same time. Deploy your strategy and unleash your squad’s fury: will you pinpoint every millimeter or rely on pure gut instinct? A stroke of brilliance can wipe the board clean, but a single bad call will turn your turn into a glorious bloodbath.
Pure simultaneous action: Moves resolve together, creating unpredictable and thrilling clashes
Compact, lethal arenas: Small space, maximum impact: every tile is an explosive battlefield
The art of prediction: Read enemy patterns, anticipate trajectories, and slam your squad down right where it hurts most
Non-stop tactical frenzy: High-pressure planning with zero room to breathe
High-tempo 3v3 battles: Discover devastating synergies and make split-second decisions under fire
ABSORB THEIR POWER
Don't just defeat rival Compulsors: obliterate them and claim their assets. Every downed Compulsor is a loot drop of flesh and abilities ready to be assimilated into your repertoire. Between battles, rip away abilities for your squad to craft increasingly absurd and devastating combos. The monster that nearly wiped you out in the last fight will become the lethal weapon you use to flatten the next!
Steal enemy abilities: Defeat rivals and rip away their powers to add to your arsenal
Unpredictable builds: Swap and combine abilities between fights to build unbeatable tactical monstrosities
Constant evolution: Every victory drastically transforms your squad’s identity and playstyle
Turn their strength against them: Weaponize the greatest assets of defeated foes
CREATE YOUR ULTIMATE BATTLE ABOMINATIONS
Topple colossal bosses and complete extreme challenges to unlock new biological entities, each boasting unique roles, passive abilities, and tactical behaviors. Mutate your Compulsors during each run by slotting wildly unbalanced mutations, devastating special attacks, and organic relics. Fuse stolen abilities into your biological framework to forge squads in relentless, uncontrollable evolution.
Unlock a legion of mutants: Discover new Compulsors with distinct playstyles and specialized traits
Outrageous synergies: Equip supers and relics alongside assimilated abilities
Endless combinations: Reforge your squad into a completely different war machine on every run
EXPERIMENT, FIGHT, DIE, REPEAT.
Carve your path through a branching, hostile biological ecosystem packed with frantic battles, unexpected events, anomalies, and point-of-no-return choices. Every run is an explosive cocktail of upgrades, ruthless enemies, and mutated abilities that never plays out the same way twice. Dying is just part of evolution. Accept defeat, unlock devastating new content, and dive back into the arena stronger and ready to unleash even more chaos.
Branching node map: Chart your course through bloody battles, mysterious events, elite Compulsor encounters, and area-clearing boss fights
Total replayability: Procedurally generated routes, enemies, events, and abilities make every run a fresh, adrenaline-fueled experience

A BIZARRE AND PULSING REALM
