Exception

Mechanics

In Exception we observe the action from the side. The campaign is divided into 128 levels located in sixteen different worlds. The game is distinguished by the fact that the stages are transformed in front of us and the camera changes position freely so that what is currently a ceiling can become a floor or a wall after a while.

When we cross the maps, we not only jump on platforms and avoid numerous traps but also face hordes of opponents. In our path there are both common hostile programs and fifteen powerful bosses, who are presented as giant monsters. We eliminate enemies in close combat, and the key to success is to perform evasions, rapid counter-attacks, and chain attacks in spectacular combinations. The set of standard moves is complemented by six special attacks, which we unlock and improve with the use of artifacts gained along the way.

Game modes

Exception can be played solo, but online rankings are a substitute for multiplayer mode, where we can boast of our achievements.

Technical aspects

Visuals of Exception bring to mind the aforementioned Tron - the shimmering colorful interior of the computer is highlighted by omnipresent neon signs. The game is accompanied by a catchy synth-wave soundtrack with songs by Kalax and Waveshaper.
