Ready to take on the world with your own hands, then come play Epigenesis, which lets players fight for world domination in non-lethal ballgames of the future. Use your parkour skills as you jump across and try to get the ball from the middle, and fight your enemies in order to reach the top. In order for you to go against your enemies, you’ll have a gravity cannon that will help to knock the other player out of reach from the middle to get the ball. “When a player scores, he receives a genetically modified super-seed and gets the opportunity to plant it onto a platform to capture it. Players capture and construct a node system from their goal post to their opponents’. If that doesn’t happen by the time the clock reaches zero, the team with the most goals wins!”
