Morbid Metal

Morbid Metal is a slasher with roguelike elements, where the combat system is based on the continuous change of appearances of the hero. Transformations occur right during the exchange of blows with opponents. Forms open up as you progress, and each gives its own techniques. The world looks abandoned: ruins, debris and equipment without owners. A group of up to four forms allows you to change your fighting style on the fly: one shell is faster, another hits harder, and a third works at a distance. The outcome of the fight depends on how quickly the player switches. Switching does not interrupt the chain of strikes, so the fight appears continuous. A mistake in changing form costs health, so the rhythm of the fight is especially important. The combo depends on the timing of the switches. Arenas are cleared in waves, and between them the hero chooses upgrades and new abilities. Enemies require different approaches, so one tactic rarely works for long. The bosses inspect the entire assembly. Leveling up between waves offers a choice of several options. Some improvements enhance existing skills. The style is dark and futuristic, and the music heightens the intensity. Updates add forms, opponents and arenas. Opponents are divided by type: fast, heavy and those who hit from a distance. The bosses occupy the arena and change it right during the battle. Anyone who likes fast slashers with a change of style will find this arena suitable. The project is released in early access, and updates expand the arsenal of forms. The community discusses the best builds and records.
