A system-driven action roguelite set inside a reactive body. Restore balance, evolve your gunform, extract resources, and buy time as resonance slowly collapses around you.
Song of Cells
SteamA system driven roguelite where every action destabilizes, or restores, a living body.
Evolve your gunform, extract resources, and buy time as resonance slowly collapses around you.
Resonance constantly declines throughout a run. Find ways to slow it down, ignore it and time will turn against you.
Harvest resources to adapt your swarm bots, but extraction comes at a cost.
Choose your core weapon identity and evolve it through run-defining Harmonics.
Each organ grants powerful active abilities and tactical utilities that shape moment to moment combat.
Unlock protocol types via blueprints, craft them in the Hub, and equip them as consumable run modifiers.

Inside a living human body, an experimental nano -AI awakens. The world responds to your presence: resonance fluctuations destabilize organs, and trigger mutations. Enemies, rooms, and biological systems adapt dynamically to your actions, constantly shifting the balance between control and chaos.
Low stability introduces new dangers - but also rare resources and hidden opportunities for those willing to push deeper.

Each run begins with a defining choice: your Gunform. Wide-ranging pattern attacks, precise energy beams, or volatile close -range flamers determine how you fight. From there, Harmonics reshape your build through run-altering boons that reconfigure attacks, weave in resonance effects, or redefine how your weapon channels energy and projectiles.
Your weapon remains the same - its behavior does not.


Every organ grants its own active ability. Overdrives are powerful, deliberate interventions that translate biological functions into tactical effects - from cleansing detonations and defensive surges to aggressive impulses and area control fields.
Alongside them, organ -specific utilities with cooldowns enable movement, positioning, and precise responses in the heat of combat. Timing is everything.


Between dives, you return to a central hub to convert recovered blueprints into equipable protocols and prepare your next deployment. Once unlocked, protocol types persist, while each run challenges you to assemble a new configuration.
Hidden organ chambers reveal fragments of the Song of Cells - a layered narrative that unfolds only through repeated expeditions. With mutable builds, evolving environments, and a resonance system that reshapes every encounter, no two runs are ever the same.
