Neurogenesis

Overview

During his extensive research, Dr. Ranvier discovered there is a way to cure certain brain diseases by entering their patients mind through REM sessions. Ranvier does not carry out this technique by himself: he does so with the help of Axon, his spirit animal who takes the form of a cybernetic opossum. Dr. Ranvier carries a gun who generates electromechanical pulses. These pulses can either damage enemies, send synaptic signals to interrupters or activate bombs.

On the other hand, Axon wields a gravitational gun which can grab, throw and release special items such as boxes and bombs. As any opossum, it has the ability to play dead: if it is hit by an enemy and Ranvier re-excites it, Axon is immune for a moment.
