Exa Soldier is a two-dimensional platformer set in a rich science fiction world where you play a genetically modified soldier who has to uncover the secrets hidden in an ancient alien civilization.
Besides its simple but effective graphics, Exa Soldier stands out for its very polished playability where, despite using solely the basic jump, run, and shoot controls, everything is so well implemented that more complications aren't needed – this formula is already fun enough.
Throughout the game and as you beat levels you unlock different skins for your exo suit that provide more firepower and let you visit new ecosystems. This adds an interesting level of replayability where you can explore levels you've already beaten in search of secrets to boost your max score.
Exa Soldier is a simple but very effective platformer that manages to bring out the best fun from this ubiquitous gameplay.
