The current system is perfect for quick fifteen to thirty minute sessions, which fits into my busy schedule perfectly. In truth, I don't think I would want Nuclear Throne to have a different health and damage system. There is are so many items and combinations of items in The Binding of Isaac that I don't really care that I died at the hands of Mom for the third time in a row. But that game is much better at papering over my faults, by being much more lenient with handing out damage, providing lots of ways to get extra health (even if only temporarily), etc. I roll into attacks, fail to hit enemies, fail to react to attacks from multiple directions, etc. I suck at Binding of Isaac as much as I do at Nuclear Throne. As a result, a single session of BoI can take me over an hour.

Every attack does either a half or a full heart of damage. In BoI, you get three hearts, split into six halves. I love to compare and contrast Nuclear Throne with The Binding of Isaac, another rogue-like-like I really enjoy. So why even bother giving him two health?īut I also see why this health system is necessary. Every enemy in the first area, with the exception of the maggots, does at least two damage. A simple example: how many times can Melting be hit before he perishes? Melting can be hit none times before he dies.

I think the game is just too brutal for me and I think it's a combination of me sucking and the health system. And every day I would get a few hundred kills, get a temporarily high position on the leaderboards and go to work. Every day I would get up at 6 AM, have breakfast, make lunch and do the daily with a random character in Nuclear Throne. Why?ĭuring the month of January of this year, I played the game every day before work. I have beaten Lil' Hunter maybe three times.īut I still play Nuclear Throne at least once a week. I have never come as far as facing the titular Nuclear Throne. I have never unlocked a golden weapon (besides Y.V.'s gun, of course). This doesn't even come close to the whole story. Nuclear Throne is too hard for me and I think that's okay.Īccording to my receipt, I bought the game on and according to Steam, I've played it for 48 hours so far. 've wanted to give feedback to Nuclear Throne for quite a while now and I can summarize my experiences with it like this: According to my receipt, I bought the game on and according to Steam, I've played it for 48 hours so far.

It's not a sad day for us, but the happy conclusion to a whirlwind decade filled with screenshake. We had a beautiful run, made incredible games, and worked with amazing people, but it is time for new things. Today marks Vlambeer’s 10th anniversary, which is way longer than we could've ever imagined. The team say they're 'looking into options for further support for our previous games, but we just can't promise anything besides that there will be no new games.' Their final game in development, Ultrabugs, is still set to launch on Steam soon with more news promised in the coming weeks, while the rest of Vlambeers back catalogue is currently on sale. It feels like we've achieved what we set out to do – as a studio, as a voice, and as individuals, and we are extremely grateful for these past years.' The studio doesn't see the move as a bad thing and in fact more see the move as a statement of achieving what they set out to do, calling the move 'the happy conclusion to a whirlwind decade filled with screenshake.
