There's another pair of games this week, including the hyper-violent top-down action game, God's Trigger. Enter the Gungeon also returns from last year's Epic giveaways for a slightly more family-friendly alternative. Both God's Trigger and Enter the Gungeon go live through the promo page on August 20 at 8:00 PDT / 11:00 EDT / 16:00 BST, right when Remnant: From the Ashes and The Alto Collection are removed from the rotation. As always, you'll 'purchase' the games at price of nothing, and they will remain in your Epic library forever. God's Trigger has some Hotline Miami vibes, though with a little more comic book in the aesthetic and a little less LSD. It's a top-down action game where you inflict gruesome violence on enemies with a variety of weapons in ultra-fast-paced battles. Here, however, you can also do it in co-op.

They’ve also continued the rebalancing work that started with Advanced Gungeons & Draguns, aiming to make the player feel “more powerful more often”. Below, a spoiler-free(?) trailer.

Experienced Gungeoneers will also explore the new secret area filled with new enemies, face off against a unique new boss, and go nuts with the community inspired Rainbow Mode! Continuing in AG&D’s tradition, the Gungeon is more inviting than ever: a buff pass has been made on a huge number of guns and items, making red chests more consistently good, along with a huge number of fixes and quality of life improvements. And of course, there are plenty of New Guns, New Items, and New Synergies!

Fittingly, this final update is titled A Farewell to Arms, and adds a host of new features and quality of life improvements to the already meaty game. For starters, there're two new playable characters (or Gungeoneers as they're known) in the form of The Paradox and The Gunslinger. These will be joined by "dozens" of new guns and items, a new secret floor with its own boss, and a new NPC called Bowler, linked to the new community-inspired Rainbow Mode. Players embarking on this trip-with-a-twist through the Gungeon are able to select one gun or item from a special Rainbow chest at the start of each floor. It's important to choose wisely, however, as that's all you'll get, aside from regular pick-ups and Master Rounds.

On April 5th, the game’s third anniversary, they’re rolling out one final free expansion-ish update to the game, called A Farewell To Arms. It’s adding two new playable characters, a new secret floor (and corresponding boss), new features and of course a pile of new guns and items to play around with. It will also include the “community-inspired” Rainbow mode. Update: More info on Rainbow Mode below – confusingly, it doesn’t have anything to do with the popular mod of the same name.

Instead, they’re going to re-focus on producing one final update to polish up the game as much as they can before they go all-in on their next game. The devs say that just looking at their latest internal work “shows just how shaky our foundations for Gungeon truly are” – it’s just become impractical to add more to the game, short of completely redesigning it from scratch, as The Binding Of Isaac did. (more…) Enter the Gungeon dev cancels expansion to work on new gameNov 20, 2018 - EurogamerEnter the Gungeon developer Dodge Roll has ceased development on a paid expansion so it can work on a new game instead. It's more trouble than it's worth, essentially. Enter the Gungeon was built nearly five years ago when Dodge Roll wasn't as good at making games, said Dodge Roll itself. Gungeon has "shaky" foundations and it's really frustrating making new stuff for it.

Enter the Gungeon s new update overhauls the 2016 roguelike shooter, adding more movement options, smoothing out progression between its multi-room floors, and providing earlier access to better guns. It should, theoretically, make surviving the randomly generated Gungeon easier. Like (bullet) hell does it. In practice, it took me five hours of beating my guns against its unforgiving walls before I even saw the third of its five main stages, and another five before I reached its boss. That boss the squid-faced D&D-inspired Mine Flayer backed me into a corner with concentric rings of bullets, before sending waddling ammo boxes my way, each of which exploded once its shot timer counted down. On my next try, I died before I even reached the first boss. At that moment, I thought I d be apocalyptically frustrated, but it s hard to stay angry too long at the Gungeon s grinning, powder-packed residents. Dave Crooks, Dodge Roll s lead developer, had a set of mantras in the making of Enter the Gungeon including every impact must be explicit and everything must feel fair but by far the most important in my estimation was everything must have a face.

My main grumble about the roguelikelike action-RPG dual-stick shooter wasn’t that it needed more items but rather that so many of its items sucked, so I’m glad to hear that AG&D also brings a rebalancing aimed at giving players more good stuff sooner. Not that I’m turning down new stuff, mind. (more…)
