Our take on MALWARE Rewritten

Players may hit a wall as stages grow more complex and introduce new obstacles, especially if they expect the early platforming demands to remain steady. Boss fights also mark progression gates: defeating each boss is how the game grants new abilities and added strength.

What is MALWARE Rewritten?

Play as a virus sent into cyberspace to destroy and corrupt what stands in its way, while collecting data scattered through the levels.

This retro-styled action platformer uses neon visuals and fast-paced movement, with stages that add complexity and obstacles as they progress. Dash through different areas, defeat enemies and bosses, then unlock abilities and build strength after each boss fight. Smaller data collectibles unlock alternate colors; larger data items have a later role. The game centers on platforming, combat, and collecting, with new obstacles introduced across its stages.
