L0VE, ALL YOU NEED IS L0VE.

WHAT IS L0VE?

Levels redesigned, remodeled, and retextured from scratch.

Weapons redesigned, remodeled, and retextured from scratch.

New trippy (and very seizure inducing, seriously don't play this if you have epilepsy) and stunning visual effects across the board.

L0VE is not a game, it is art you can play.

Levels:

• PLANETARIUM: a vaporwave inspired vision of paradise.
• CHESS: a corrupted acid trip of spasming walls and optically confounding game pieces.
• ORBIT: blotches of ink rain from a crack in the sky.
• MINOTAUR: [redacted] [no literally]
• MONUMENT: a shimmering statue surrounded by swirling sands and shining sunbeams that stab at stygian shadow.
• SKYTOWER: the most retro and absurd of all, the essence of PH0B0S, beyond description.

Weapons:

• STARHOOK: The magical girl's weapon of choice, complete with star and heart "particles". There are no actual particles in PH0B0S. Ever notice that?
• ZSWORD: A flowery rapier of, truth be told, subpar utility. Points for style, right?
• ATTRACTION BEAM: Basically just an upgrade to the rifle. Love is war.
• COMMET HAMMER: The funniest weapon of them all, rocket towards either certain victory or certain death! And now it's PURPLE!

Hello GAM3RS, The title says it all. PH0B0S is going to soon be a payed experience. This is my first videogame project and I have been experimenting with various things including the pricing, I have found that people prefer paying up front as opposed to annoying limited edition cosmetics or microtransactions. Thanks for showing interest in this janky game. -Terra
