A corruption is taking over Retro-Future City and only you can stop it. Descend through four levels of intense turn-based combat and cybernetically-enhance your organs to overcome this threat.

Electric Organ is a traditional roguelike with an emphasis on ranged combat. Character progression primarily takes the form of swapping out your organs as they are damaged by the environment, and upgrading them to make your strong enough to face the threats below the city.

In addition to the game's levels, all the music and sound effects are procedurally-generated live with a synthesizer.

NOTE: The macOS releases of the game were not included in the files uploaded during the 7drl game jam due to a bug. I uploaded them a few days later after fixing the bug.

Thanks so much for playing!

Second time's a charm! Tried streaming this last week but couldn't get it to stream, but today it worked out (only one "oh no we crashed so near the end?!" scare :P). Lotta fun, this one, a very interesting combination of mechanics and levers to manage. Love the difficulty scaling--no time wasted and a good many strategic options throughout. If you want to check out my initial experience with the game, it starts here from 00:35:26:

Thanks for the stream! Also super valuable to know about the issues you were running into with OBS and also the annoying cursor offset bug when playing in the browser.

Glad to help, and not sure what you can do about the audio in that case, but yeah first time I've encountered this sort of thing while streaming a game. At least it worked this time :P (my guess is it has to do with lower system resources/responsiveness, and my laptop happened to be in slightly better shape this week? it's getting a little old at this point, and the CPU certainly needs repasted... again... Although the fact that the desktop version had it even worse is kinda weird.)

Also worth noting: The fullscreening method of the web version leaves something to be desired compared to the other more common results out there. I guess it should ideally at least be centered, if not scaled, rather than put in the top-corner, although maybe this is somewhat less meaningful for those who aren't streaming...

But Electric Organ is actually one of my favorites from this year, just this morning was again thinking about how "mechanically mature" it feels despite being a 7DRL.
