Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“CORRUPT.EXE is already fully playable, but we believe the game will benefit from community feedback as we continue expanding its systems and content. Early Access allows players to help shape the game's balance, progression, new virus strains, enemy types, bosses, environments, and overall gameplay experience. Our goal is to build the best possible roguelike experience while actively incorporating player feedback throughout development.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect CORRUPT.EXE to remain in Early Access for approximately 6-12 months. This timeline may change depending on community feedback and the scope of planned additions, but our focus is on delivering meaningful improvements rather than rushing to a final release.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan for the full version to include additional virus strains, enemies, bosses, upgrades, mutations, environments, progression systems, achievements, visual improvements, balance updates, quality-of-life features, and additional gameplay content. We also plan to continue refining the user interface, visual effects, and overall presentation based on player feedback gathered during Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version is fully playable and includes the core gameplay experience. Players can select virus strains, fight a variety of enemies, earn upgrades, unlock permanent progression, and complete runs through the existing game systems. While the core mechanics are functional and actively being refined, players may encounter balance changes, visual improvements, additional content updates, and occasional bugs as development continues.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We may gradually increase the price as new content and features are added throughout development. Players who purchase the game during Early Access will receive all future updates included in the game as development progresses.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“CORRUPT.EXE is being developed by a small team, and community feedback is an important part of the development process. We plan to actively monitor Steam discussions, reviews, bug reports, and player suggestions throughout Early Access. Community feedback will help shape balance changes, quality-of-life improvements, new content, and future features. Our goal is to create a game that evolves with its players while maintaining the core vision of a fast-paced virus-themed roguelike experience.”

About This Game

THE SYSTEM REMEMBERS YOU.

You are not the hero. You are an intrusion — a strain of malware loose inside a hostile machine, and the antivirus is learning. It profiles your movement, predicts your dodges, adapts its pursuit mid-run, and carries everything it learned about you into the next one. Every run, the system knows you a little better. Every run, you have to become something it hasn't seen.

INFECT. Choose your strain — the regenerating WORM, the life-leeching TROJAN, the greedy RANSOM, the untouchable GHOST, or the walking apocalypse LOGIC.BMB — and carve through endless waves of security processes, each generation procedurally mutated.

EVOLVE. Fifteen weapons, each with five levels and an evolved form. Then it gets stupid: fuse two evolved abilities into one of 225 fusion combinations, each with its own name, color, and quirk. Fuse two primed fusions and ascend to the OMEGA tier — if you can survive long enough to build one.

SURVIVE THE PURGE. Boss-class defense programs hunt you every five minutes — a ravenous snake that rages when it feeds, a corrupted DVD logo that locks you in the arena, a blackout that swallows the screen whole. Kill the third and choose: extract with your stolen DATA, or go endless and see how deep the system goes. The fast and the bold will find things hiding past the fifteen-minute mark that we won't spoil here.

FEATURES

  • An adaptive AI director that profiles your playstyle and persists between runs

  • 15 weapons → evolutions → 225 fusions → OMEGA fusions

  • 5 virus strains with unique passives, permanent upgrades, and a fusion codex to fill

  • Dimension rifts: first-person 3D maze raids for high-value loot, mid-run

  • Secret bosses, warp gates, a black hole, and a 0.5% mythic jackpot someone will clip

  • CRT arcade mode, colorblind assist filters, full neon-on-black synth aesthetic

You have one job: don't get deleted.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Generative AI was used during the development of CORRUPT.EXE to assist with coding, design iteration, brainstorming, and the creation of certain visual assets. All AI-generated content was reviewed, edited, and curated by the developer before being included in the game. No live AI-generated content is created during gameplay, and players do not interact with generative AI systems while playing.
