THREATTIER · MODERATE
Mitotic Surge
Enemies split into fresh clones when they die.
Cancer cells divide by mitosis. Uncontrolled replication is what makes cancer, cancer.
Coming Soon · PC / Steam
Killer Cell: Remission
A bullet-heaven auto-battler where you play as a Natural Killer cell. Every enemy on screen is a real biological process.

MECHANICS DRAFT
Built from the disease up.
No re-skinned zombies. The biology came first, and the mechanics follow from it. What you fight in the game is what your body fights in real life.
THREATEVENT · PHASE 2
Cytokine Storm
Your fire rate doubles, but you take chip damage.
A dangerous immune overreaction that damages the host, not only the target.
THREATAURA · PARACRINE
Membrane Signal
Enemies broadcast buffs to the cells around them.
Paracrine signaling. Cancer uses it to reshape the tissue in its favor.
BUFFWEAPON · MEMORY
Perforin Rail
A rail that punches through a line of cells. Evolves into Granzyme Payload.
Perforin drills the membrane, granzymes trigger apoptosis. How your NK cells actually kill.
BUFFGOAL · 4,000 UNITS
Remission Meter
A 4,000-unit biomass bar that fills toward victory.
Tumor burden reduction. The measurable goal of real cancer treatment.
BUFFUNIT · PLAYER
NK Cell / You
Automatic weapons that reward constant motion.
Natural Killer cells patrol nonstop and kill cancer cells on contact.
BOSS · THREE PHASESTIER · CRITICAL
THE SARCOMA CORE
Strip its calcified bone armor, expose the soft tissue underneath, then survive the necrotic inflammation surge. Straight from real sarcoma pathology.
Specimen Sheet
Every mechanic maps to a real one.
The whole design rule in one table. The left column is what you do. The right column is what your body actually does.
| Index# | Mechanic | In the game | In your body |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Mitotic Surge | Enemies split into clones on death. | Cancer cells divide by mitosis. Runaway replication is the disease. |
| 02 | Cytokine Storm | Fire rate doubles, but you take chip damage. | An immune overreaction that harms the host, not just the target. |
| 03 | Membrane Signal | Enemies broadcast buffs to nearby allies. | Paracrine cytokine signaling reshapes the microenvironment. |
| 04 | NK Cell (you) | Automatic weapons, rewarded for constant motion. | Natural Killer cells patrol continuously and kill on contact. |
| 05 | Sarcoma Core boss | Bone-armored phase one, exposed flesh phase two. | Osteosarcoma builds a calcified shell. Strip it to reach soft tissue. |
| 06 | Remission Meter | A 4,000-unit biomass bar filling toward victory. | Tumor burden reduction: the measurable goal of treatment. |
Sourced from peer-reviewed cancer biology. Accuracy is a design constraint, not a marketing line.
