- This is what videogames should be like, they should have meaning... and triple machineguns. - Jan Willem Nijman

Divertido, visceral, repleto de secretos, injusto y difícil.
El videojuego que me inspiró a dedicarme al medio, el arcade perfecto, y prácticamente una religión entre colegas.

The introduction of Early Access Games was a neat development in the game industry, as a direct counterattack to the industry's love affair with never admitting anything is happening in their games until they have to either apologize or promote something new. Nuclear Throne introduced to me a brand new downside: The Desire They'd Stop Working On The Game, It's Fine The Way It Is. There's a Nuclear Throne that exists a few versions before launch that I would kill to get back, because the thing it is now cares too much about the interstitial and not just hitting the button to fuckin deploy the asskicking. In many ways, this is the story of Vlambeer: violent action that couldn't get out of their own fuckin way. Seeing their blueprints aped so poorly is worse, but not an unfamiliar bummer for anyone who likes The Jesus Lizard and then hears 90% of noise rock bands.

It's probably due to me not playing much but every run felt pretty much the same, the same 3-4 guns 2 melee weapons and constantly the same few upgrades so I just gave up

A fun and frantic roguelike. Simple but effective. Perhaps a bit frustrating because you can die unexpectedly all the time, but since it's so fast-paced, you still feel like playing another round. However, it does end up being repetitive.
