Summary
A new platform game called Gennady is taking the gaming world by storm, with many comparing it to the popular titles Dead Cells and Earthworm Jim, due to its misanthropic elements and roguelite progression themes.
Players assume the role of a grumpy middle-aged man who must navigate through a realm of squirming bioblocks, with the ultimate goal of transforming into a moth or a squirrel.
There are elements of graphic novel animation, and the game is set in a procedurally generated world of wriggling alien cubes, which burst to reveal juicy golden maggots and green ooze.
When players die, they enter a progression mini-game where they can shoot falling items to retain them for their next gaming run.
Developers Feed 64 are an outsourcing team based in Armenia, and Gennady does not currently have an official release date.
