Unstable Selection

Description

Unstable Selection is a charming and chaotic action roguelike that celebrates the power of mutation. As you battle through procedurally generated levels across three distinct environments, every defeated enemy offers a chance to evolve—absorb their abilities and reshape your playstyle on the fly. With 14 unique powers shared between foes and players, and 8 status effects that can twist combat in unexpected ways, no two runs play the same. Each attempt is driven by a unique seed, letting you retrace or challenge past runs with precision. Whether you prefer mouse and keyboard or a gamepad, the game adapts to your preferred control scheme. Developed by team Ursine Amoeba at UCSC—James Morrow, Dan Cochran, Ben Mages, Fernando Briones, and Katie Liu—with sound design by Sean Thompson, Matt Eis, Jake Little, and Stephen Santoyo, plus additional art by Halley Eveland, Unstable Selection delivers a fresh, unpredictable experience with every leap into the unknown.
