About This Game

DESCEND INTO THE NEST

Earth has been invaded by alien parasites! Our only hope is for a brave hero to destroy their queen and save humanity!

Discover Nidwess, an old-school arcade side-scrolling shoot 'em up set in a surreal, grotesque universe.

CLASSIC ARCADE ACTION

• Switch weapons to adapt to the challenge! Make the most of each weapon to find your way through each stage's layout.

• If it's too easy, make it harder! Find all five gold medals in each stage to earn a precious extra life... but beware: doing so also increases the difficulty! Stage layouts change with the difficulty, offering a fresh challenge for even the toughest players.

• Die, retry, and master the game! Hone your skills, push your limits, and earn your place on the high-score table.

A WORLD OF PARASITES

After an asteroid crashes into Earth, an alien parasite begins infecting every living creature it encounters, evolving into new and threatening life forms.

Two brave pilots join forces as the Killerbee squad, tasked with exploring the nest, blasting away anything that moves, and destroying the parasite queen.

HANDCRAFTED FROM THE GROUND UP

Nidwess brings arcade action into a strange, unsettling world inspired by surrealism and grotesque art.

Independently developed by a solo creator, Nidwess features handcrafted code, artwork, and music, all made from scratch.
