in terms of deep/abyssal loop, no, he is by far the weakest character in the game, the limited movement speed and hp make him the most vulnerable character in the game, and his inaccuracy makes the ultra shovel unusable, which is one of the most important weapons you need, he's fun, don't get me wrong, but completely awful (not to mention he gets one less mutation due to being unable to get Crown of Destiny, and basically is forced to lose one to take extra feet)

Great video, I'm one of the devs of Repentance and a lot of things from nuclear throne we used as inspiration in tboi repentance. In particular Tainted Jacob and Tainted Eve were inspired by Rogue and Rebel respectively.

I quite like how NT basically initiated the trend for Rogue-like and -lite games to have the LOOP mechanic. The mechanic that let's you got into more or less infinity to either get more abilities or test how far you can get (and how crazy shit can become) RoR and NT are two games I know which give you the "I HAVE ASCENDED INTO GODHOOD" moment once you are deep into loop- that time where each of your attacks unleashes nuke sized annihilation and even standing still and existing kills shit

@godlyvex5543

2 жыл бұрын

Well, the "each attack annihilates the whole level" is something nuclear throne did well, but I'd say risk of rain didn't do it that well. Enemies keep spawning, and you have to sit by the teleporter for two minutes while all the enemies die instantly... also, most of the time, you're either killing everything instantly, or you die, there's not really a middle ground. Nuclear throne is a lot more balanced in that regard. Also, the way nuclear throne scales through each loop is much more interesting than risk of rain, where the first loop adds... a few enemy types to each level. That's it. And two more champion types. So exciting. And new loops after that add nothing special. What exactly is the incentive for looping? It's not like there is a challenge, if you have the right build you can literally go infinite. Nobody wants to grind the game for 12 hours straight on a single run where the enemies all die instantly and you're never at risk of dying. In nuclear throne, the difficulty scales not just through new enemy types (which are added all the way up to loop 3), an ending that is exclusive to looping, new bosses, bosses get more powerful in ways that aren't just more damage/health, new weapons, new crowns? Not to mention the difficulty scaling isn't just 'enemies have 100% more health, good luck killing anything unless you have a game breaking combo'. The fact that enemies don't respawn in nuclear throne means that you can actually whittle away at the huge hordes of enemies and feel like you're making progress, instead of the only option to progress being "shoot at these 4 dudes for an hour until they die, also you're doing this again next level, have fun!"

It is a shame that developers disappeared not only because this game would be a lot better with new things but because the aesthetics and the whole history that could have been told.good vid and I freaking love Y.V.

Also- the Throne boss fight has some slight lore implications. The implication is that the first Throne you fight is not the real throne, just a mechanical approximation of the Real Throne. If you played NT you probably got to know why you are looking for the Throne- each character wants their wish granted and Throne is said to grant you your wish once you sit on it. Idk if IDPD are behind the fake Throne or someone else made it, but the true Wish Granting Throne is the abomination you fight if you disable the generators, and just like a monkey's paw the wish it grants you is to try the game again- and maybe save people who get killed by IDPD in your absence (the menu level you enter before Throne II fight) And on fun lore side- I really love people's reaction when they get to know that Chicken and Crystal are ladies and that Steroids is a scientist

Eh, to me it's the inevitable nature of the game. . . In an ever increasing difficulty loop, the viable strategies will eventually narrow down into a meta. I don't think the devs ever expected anyone to get much further than Loop 4, to be honest. I remember even when L4 was reached for the first time after the IDPD Freaks were added to the game (I believe it was Ideaot who got there first) what a huge deal that was. I think that they simply should have kept the Elites in past L2, and had both Freaks and Elites in L3 and onward. That's the one thing that's inconsistent and out of place about the game to me: Making any aspect of it easier by removing an enemy type three loops in. That would have put an end to these ridiculous deep loop runs.

Fun fact about the game design talk with the end portal that appears when you kill all enemies, there's actually a really subtle sound cue when there's only one enemy left. It subconciously lets you know without being intrusive, and if you don't actively recognise it you feel like you've got a sixth sense that the portal is going to spawn soon.

48:08 there's actually a "glitch" that was left in the game where when big bandit charges you, you can swing with a melee weapon and he will be hit multiple times during his charge animation, which can result in very quick big bandit kills with even just a wrench iirc the same applies to the big doggy guardians in the palace when they pounce at you

I remember back in the day how big Nuclear Throne was, it's one of my absolute favourite games, it's a shame it hasn't gotten any further official support but mods are a thing and are pretty solid overall. Frankly the greatest sin is that the developers didn't keep the development videos on their Twitch so as far as I'm aware it's media and that sucks because they were amazing. Edit: The lore tidbits you wouldn't know otherwise are super fun and goofy and the game is full of them, many of them were brought up when asked during the development livestreams. Edit 2: There is indeed a bricking point, not only do you fight tougher enemies but enemies all gain additional hp, sure in theory you could keep going but at some point there will be too many enemies and not enough ammo since your damage doesn't scale, it's well beyond loop 8 is all I can say for sure.

This video popped into my recommended, having never watched a single one of your videos before. I leave it with my enjoyment for this game re-kindled and burning brighter than ever. Nuclear Throne was a game I literally grew up with, a friend introduced it to me way back in the 7th grade, 2015, and I cannot even imagine how many hours I spent playing this game when I should have been studying. Everyday I'd ask him if there was an update, and when there was, he'd transfer the newest version of the game onto a USB stick and I'd go from there. The struggles I went through trying to get to my first L2, and the triumphant feeling of beating Throne II and entering the portal to 1-1 L2, only to die about 15 seconds in. Nuclear Throne was actually the reason I even created a steam account in the first place, my username is even a reference to something from the game, and while I don't rank anywhere near the top guys in the game's community, the 527+ hours I've spent in the base game (who knows how many more playing NTT with numerous mods) have been some of the best fun I've had in front of a computer screen. I've even had a nice placement on a weekly leaderboard one time (steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2647425766). To sum it up, thank you for making this video, I'm glad I saw it, and I hope that others who see it that haven't tried the game before do so as soon as possible, it's unbelievable fun all the way through.

One of my favorite games of all time, glad I came across this video.

I am now 20 and am a game designer, going to school for the craft, and someone asked me what the most influential game was for me. Nuclear Throne was the fifth game I bought on PC. I must have been 10-13, and it gave me an adrenaline rush I’ve been chasing ever since. More importantly, when child me looked into the devs, the first thing on KZread is a GDC talk (think game dev TED talk). And I think that lecture sowed the seeds that brought me into this art form I love. So it’s a shame to me that this game goes forgotten, as I think it’s the most finely distilled an arcade shooter roguelike has ever been, and one of my main inspirations.

"Rougelikes and rougelites are the takeout of video games" hits so hard

It’s painful to see rogue like developers ignore Nuke Throne’s incredible formula. Gunplay feels smooth and has an endless armory. Enemies snap and shoot with no telegraphing besides some boss indication. Straight to the point with its difficulty, with loops being cutthroat and properly earned. Even spamming with characters that prioritize mindless shooting is addicting and fun. It’s barebones simplicity brought so much space for what is essentially a power-hungry rush as you navigate through the chaos. Glad to see the love. We need more games like Nuke Throne. Games are afraid to just go fast and quite literally just “run around and shoot da guy”.

thanks for the video, this game is my childhood and always had a special place in my heart, its one of the games that started my love for roguelike/roguelites (the other one being tboi, that and nt were the only things i played/watched years ago) and im honestly really sad that no one really talks or knows about it anymore

“Alligators that have a really powerful shotgun blast” …I’m sorry, what? That is the most bizarre, cursed, and metal sentence I’ve heard in quite some time and you said it as though it’s just business as usual.

NT can be really fun sometimes, it's easy to lose track of time during a good run and it's intense all the way through. I think NT and Spelunky (HD) are some of the best roguelites.

FISH CAN ROLL!

amazing video much like the previous one! i've been on the sidelines watching some nuclear throne stuff, but i didn't know it went this deep with loops or bosses and such, it was really cool to learn about! super excited to see what other kind of videos you put out, so far you're on a streak!

I've clocked over 300 hours in Nuclear Throne and have unlocked about three dozen crowns yet I still suck ass at it. One of my favorite games ever. It's a perfect combo of fast action, quick improvisation and strategy, occasional bullet hell-esque dodging and an extremely cromulent upgrading system that can get insane if you know what you're doing.

Amazing game, started playing it again recently. This is one of those games you can pick up and play, and put down for a few years and come back to it and still enjoy it. Simple, difficult and very fast. Great video.

I played Nuclear Throne every morning before going to the university for about 2 years, awesome routine :D Always playing muscle guy trying to go for dual crossbow runs, ending up with grenade rifle and shovel but doing great!

I only picked up this game a few months ago and was disappointed to see how such a well made and fun game had a small following. Thanks for making this video and possibly helping to change that.

Why I love most about this game is that it's specifically not a "lite". There is virtually no permanent vertical progression, which means you don't just throw yourself at the game until your stats let you overpower the content. Any progress you make is due entirely to yourself becoming better at the game. You start dying to bandits, but then you get farther and farther and eventually you're going completely insane things that you never thought you'd be able to do.

About time this game got some more love! Thank you so much for making this video, it's so needed

Aw hell yeah, looking forward to watching the Nuclear Throne Analysis Movie (unironically)!

Making this after completing my first run in a haze of adrenaline. Thank you so much for introducing me to this beautiful game and I gotta say, it was calming hearing Kings and Queens of Wastland after 20 odd minutes of fear. Fear of losing and having to restart. Fear of never beating it, as was the case of Hotline Miami. But I overcame it. Thank you Davy, from the bottom of my heart.

5000 hours played. love it.

nuclear throne does actually throw together rooms at least to some extentive seen parts of stages (mainly the desert) get repeated between runs, its just less noticeable because the parts are interconnected directly into one large area instead of being seperate rooms (also probably have entirely random tiles connecting them, making it even harder to tell)

Followed this game through it's whole development & it was amazing to see what an absolutely solid product they managed to come out with. 1,500 hours in it & I still come back sometimes, it becomes like a second sense eventually

I don't play the game because I'm so bad at it I can barely beat a stage, but man, the music in this game is INSANELY good. Gun Locker is just a staple song in all of my playlists.

An important note to make about eyes pulling events towards yourself, how this is a BENEFIT vs a "why would you wanna do this"is the fact it hinders events moving erratically around your aim or waiting behind cover. If you've a powerful piercing/precision weapon or even shotgun, limiting the enemy movement in a more predictable state makes them easier to kill. You're also in FULL CONTROL of how much or little you desire to use the ability. No resources, cooldown, or timer gauge. You affect everything's movement again, including deadly attacks going towards you.

I remember finding chubbyemu when i was hyper fixated into NT, and I came to his channel after a break and was surprised at the content. Now I watch his old stuff and new stuff lol

Okay this whole video on this game is cool and all, but my biggest takeaway from it is the fact Aviators was refferencing this game in his RoR2 song with lyrics "Temples high in trails of pain for a Moonlit Throne"

haven't thought about this game in ages, thanks for the reminder :)

I absolutely love this game, it’s the only game I come back to every week

Great video man, this game definitely deserves way more attention than it gets.

I've 100%'d this game TWICE (which, for the uninitiated, is of comparable difficulty to getting say, Dead God twice in Isaac) and commenting on the story, the reason I feel this game is so good is because it recognizes that it's a game first. The story is there, but it takes a complete backseat to game mechanics. Every location has some pretty interesting lore, there are character interactions, and some cool parallels that you can draw from the various locations in game that fill in the gaps, but absolutely none of it compromises the gameplay. You can take the time to observe these things over the course of your runs, or you can totally ignore it and 100% the game without knowing a single thing about the world. Also Y.V. for life

about the section on portals, they do have a set location, it's the last thing in the level that has died (which can be anything with health, not just enemies, so the portal can open on a radiation canister or a prop if you broke it after killing the last enemy) and the second-to-last enemy in the level makes a loud, washed out thud noise to let you know that the next enemy will spawn the portal you can abuse this, for example, to negate the downside of present chests (they give you ammo that you don't have equipped if you open them regulary, but the portal breaking them will spawn regular mini ammo pickups which *do* give you ammo that you can use)

Just discovered the mobile apk version of this game, and I can already tell this is going to turn into my favorite game of all time.

I’m glad that other people appreciate the struggle and reward this game has to offer. One of the reason I love this game so much is the reply ability, design, and the soundtrack. One of the best soundtracks I have heard. I just wish it had a bigger fan base

As a person that went really deep into this game and had several WRs at the time (i hit skeleton and rebel distance world records), thank you for this video Davey This game is something that i never experienced in my life before, over 1k hours spent trying and learning, and the game never stopped to bring up new ways to flip me over. Thats one of the reasons why i enjoyed skeleton, his is the lowest of the low, but being so behind on everything told me a lot about the game, and i hit L15 some time after. Also just spamming SPC every 3 frames for free before its loop 9 is something to have fun with (and mutation shenanigans, i was the guy to figure out that redemption melting can get 7 hp maximum). Nuclear throne did replayability better then any other game of the genre, and, unintentionally, endless difficulty raise as well.

43:40 The portal opens up wherever the last enemy was. And it also helps that when there's only one enemy remaining on the level, you hear a deep bassy sound (reducing music volume makes it easier to hear it). So you can definitely predict when and where the portal will open up.

I'll be real this is the first sponsor that got me to (beg my partner to) buy something.

43:35 the portal opens on the last enemy corpse. It is entirely predictable.

I'm happy someone is giving this game it's roses that it deserves
