Intro

If you’re reading this, you are playing the full version of the game Exophobia before release. I made this guide to help creators in case they get stuck with the game. If you have any questions, please send an email to [email protected]!

Walkthrough

Since the game is a “metroidvania”, it can be a bit confusing to know where to go next. Exploration is part of the game, but for a quicker playthrough here is the shortest linear path to take to complete the game. Save often in order to not lose progress. I mentioned some save terminals that are not so obvious in the steps but save every time you find one. Also, your map recharges every time you are at a terminal, but the terminal map is more complete and you can pan around.

(Includes Spoilers! Use only if absolutely stuck or you want to get through the game fast)

Floor 1 – Mecha boss

The game starts very linear-ly. This part works as a tutorial.

  1.  Grab the suit in front of you

  7. Go forward and shoot the button in front to go down
  8. Ambush room
  9. Gun upgrade (charge to destroy vents)
  10. Optional HP upgrade (push the barrels to the white doors)

100% Completion

If you complete the game like this you get the bad ending, which unlocks Infinite Mode.

If you find the 4 gems in the 4 levels you get the good ending, which ends with an extra boss fight and unlocks Boss Rush Mode. The CDs give tips to where they are, and most of them need upgrades that you don’t have at the time, so you can go back by loading a bad ending save for instance. Blow up the walls to find the secret rooms. To get 100% completion you need to find all CDs and gems. These images include the location of the gems, filters and dogs. Filters and dogs are OPTIONAL.

Floor 3 is filled with secret rooms with helmet pedestals with crazy characters! Every time you spot a texture out of place, try charge shooting at it.

Floor 4 has a floating character in the room on top of the right elevator, look behind the wall.

Also, if you shoot the wall inside the dev team room you’ll find a memorial to a friend of mine. RIP Ricardo!
