How it feels

A strange, intense boss rush through a surreal pixel-art internet world, with a focus on gun customization and a mysterious, dark narrative.

What players say

Players describe Deios I as an experimental, abrasive boss rush that feels more like interactive art than a conventional shooter. The visual effects cause headaches for some, and the story is confusing, but players praise the unique style and are willing to overlook roughness to support the developer.
