There’s a Halo-style two weapon limit that forces you, as ever, to make difficult choicesĪnd there are an array of treats waiting to tempt you: machine guns, pistols, hammers and shovels. Weapon drops that get steadily more powerful the longer you live, and ammo spread across the five types of weapon the game offers – good old standard bullets at one end, pure sci-fi energy at the other. This comes in the form of weapon drops and ammo for the most part. Sometimes you can wind up dead on the first screen and sometimes you can get to the end with barely a mark upon you. The game constantly pulls you back in with how different every single run can be. It takes getting used to and learning enemy shooting patterns is extremely important if you wish to progress to some of the later levels. Or you can dual wield weapons and play as crazy and fast paced as you want. You can play the game as a tanky character with a shield as an ability Blazing Beaks The game has twelve different characters which all have unique and special traits. The game feels very well designed and there is enough variety in all the different map layouts, upgrades and weapons that the game never feels dull Nuclear Throne, like most rogue-like games has various different ways to enjoy playing.

The game runs very well and feels smooth even when there are multiple enemies and projectiles on the screen. The games menu screen and settings are all easy and swift to go through. At the current time, there are two game modes available to play: a single player mode and a Local Co-Op mode. The game is currently available on Steam for GBP £8.99. Nuclear Throne is a rogue-like fast paced game created by Vlambeer. But rushing forward to claim the rewards isn’t the wisest tactic in a world that’s home to assassins posing as corpses. It obviously encourages aggression, as does the fact that Rads (XP points) must be gathered before they blink out of existence-rinsing that corridor in one fell swoop might cost you an upgrade, if you can’t mop up all the Rads in time. This transforms a bullet-hell endeavour into a question of banking shots and pinball table multikills-a lucky thwack with a wrench might clear out an entire corridor, saving you precious ammo. One dramatically increases the force with which enemy bodies are thrown by a fatal blow. Faster movement-to esoteric mutations that suit more advanced tactics, such as being able to tunnel into walls for shelter.
