Gone Viral is build upon procedurally generated dungeons filled with mutants and warbots for you to decimate in numerous ways, be it through lethal hack and slash combos, or through thrilling pinball combat or knocking enemies into deadly traps. If that isn’t enough for you, then why not go hunting for some mutations to stir it up even more. Mutations can change the games in numerous amounts of ways, from your total health, to a propeller attached to your back, which not only makes you fly, but will also make you lethal from all angles. As we kill our fan base will continue to grow, more fans means more events. More events can be extremely beneficial, however they can also be extremely lethal, especially when those fans are your Twitch followers, who also get a say in what event will happen next.
