A rogue-lite twin-stick shooter/brawler that never plays the same twice. Collect and control 60 different characters as the body-snatching alien Parasite with a grudge against humanity. Fight to the top of the food chain: possess the President, push the Big Red Button and one-up the human race.

What’s up Parasites? Man oh man has it been busy here at the HyperParasite HQ. Gamescom was a total blast, we were thrilled to meet so many of you and watch you enjoying world domination on our booth.
From Gamescom we headed to [url=http://www.indiedevday.es/]IndieDevDay[/url], in Barcelona, the second year we have attended, and what an event it was. In 2018 we won the Best Shooter/Shoot 'Em Up, and now, in 2019, we walked away with the Best Blast 'em Up Trophy (the kick-ass drinks can is last years award)! What makes this award so special to us as developers is that it is voted on by other developers at the show. So from us to you (we know you’re reading this) - thank you!

Don’t worry though, Parasites, just because we’ve been on the road winning awards, doesn’t mean we haven’t been working on the game. In fact, we have a ton of new content for you to get your tentacles around. As always, more info is included below and we look forward to reading what you think in the comments section below.

[h1]Reminder: Release Date Update + New Price[/h1]
With all the news coming out of Gamescom, we wanted to take a moment to remind you all of our plans for release and new pricing for Early Access. As we continue to add more and more to the game, we feel it’s now the right time to increase the price from $10.99 to $12.99.
In addition to the pricing update, we also announced, in our last update, that our planned full, and final, release for HyperParasite will now be Q1 2020.
You can read more about both of these important milestones in our previous update [url=https://steamcommunity.com/gid/103582791462711988/announcements/detail/3325266168492687192]here[/url]
