Fury Unleashed

Apart from some at times tiny writing on the Switch handheld, Fury Unleashed looks sublime, has riffage for days, and represents an excellent run and gun wormhole to disappear down.

  • gameplay
    241 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of "Fury Unleashed" is characterized by fast-paced, intense combat that emphasizes kill combos and exploration, creating a rewarding and addictive experience. While the game features a variety of mechanics and a smooth movement system, its reliance on maintaining combos can be challenging and may not appeal to all players. Overall, the game combines engaging action with a unique art style and a solid progression system, though some players have noted issues with repetitive gameplay and technical glitches.

    • “Fury Unleashed is a game that is heavily reliant on doing kill combos and maintaining them as the main gameplay mechanic. Coupled with the smooth movement system, this makes for incredibly fun and even addicting gameplay, with your desire to maintain your combo growing more and more.”
    • “The gameplay is very satisfying and fun because of a combination of good, responsive controls, really cool visual effects, and great audio. The bass during gameplay is really meaty.”
    • “It's positively oozing with charm, the gameplay is wonderful, and there is more than enough content to keep you going for a long time.”
    • “The gameplay is okay, but the repeated crashes during the game completely kill the interest in playing.”
    • “You end up fighting against the extreme oversaturation of environmental damage rather than the enemies, and for a game that incentivizes fast gameplay and keeping up your combo (which expires pretty fast, even with upgrades), the amount of fireball or poison traps laid out directly in front of each doorway you enter or daisy chained back to back is frankly unacceptable.”
    • “Like Terraria Journey, Lobotomy Corporation 2, Gears Tactics, Dread Nautical, Help Will Come Tomorrow, Before We Live, etc. right now there is simply no time window for a little arcade-like Fury Unleashed with its mediocre gameplay.”
  • graphics
    153 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of "Fury Unleashed" are widely praised for their vibrant, comic-book-inspired aesthetic, featuring beautifully hand-drawn 2D artwork and smooth animations that enhance the gameplay experience. While many players appreciate the unique art style and attention to detail, some note minor graphical glitches and a desire for more polish. Overall, the visuals contribute significantly to the game's appeal, making it a standout in the action-platformer genre.

    • “Fury Unleashed is a vibrant action-platformer that combines roguelike elements with an engaging narrative and a comic-book-inspired aesthetic.”
    • “The graphics make me think that the Metal Slug games and the SteamWorld games were thrown into a blender, and Fury Unleashed popped out... so in other words, the visuals are off the flippin' hook!”
    • “In particular, some of the enemy and boss designs are so cool I'd like to meet the artists and shake their hands for cramming so many jaw-dropping and stunning visuals into one game.”
    • “It keeps resetting graphics and all that jazz each time I turn it on.”
    • “The art style makes it look like a mobile game, but the actual mechanics and movement are top notch.”
    • “The jumping feels very floaty and often very frustrating, the music is horrible as it only has one really bad track, the art style is... acquired taste to put it that way.”
  • story
    105 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is a mixed bag, with some players finding it entertaining and unique, while others describe it as predictable and lacking depth. Despite its simplicity and limited narrative elements, many appreciate the way the story is integrated into the gameplay and visuals, enhancing the overall experience. Overall, while the story may not be the main draw, it adds a layer of charm and context to the action-packed gameplay.

    • “This game, oh my god, the story might be one of the predictable ones, but the way it is delivered!”
    • “It is clear this is a work of passion, from the art to the weapons, but the story really brings home what the developers put into this game.”
    • “Looks like a basic action roguelike but quickly reveals itself to have some heart to it, and is worth playing through to see how the story unfolds.”
    • “The story is mediocre.”
    • “Even when it's all said and done, there's little replay value, a thrown together story with unimportant characters, and the main protagonist has no identity.”
    • “Fact is, it plays and appears like that of an old flash game due to the lack of story, originality, and feels as if it belongs on the Google Play Store for $2.99 (at best).”
  • music
    99 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in "Fury Unleashed" is generally praised for its energetic and dynamic nature, effectively ramping up in intensity as players achieve higher combo counts, which enhances the overall gameplay experience. However, some players feel that the soundtrack lacks variety and can become repetitive, with a few expressing disappointment over the absence of background music in certain modes. Overall, while the music contributes positively to the game's atmosphere, there are calls for more diverse tracks and improvements in its implementation.

    • “The soundtrack for 'Fury Unleashed' is energetic and catchy, perfectly complementing the game's frenetic action.”
    • “The higher your combo, the more intense the music gets, and it just gets you absolutely pumped!”
    • “Not only does the background music for every comic feel very appropriate for the level it plays in, it swells and becomes more rich with your combo meter!”
    • “The game claims that in this mode, you will run and attack to the beat of the music and that's not true.”
    • “In terms of movement, the gameplay slows down and briefly returns the speed to normal on each music beat, resulting in a headache-inducing movement.”
    • “The music in its current stage is very boring, linear; it's basically one soundtrack that gets more intense when your combo count goes up.”
  • replayability
    48 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game exhibits high replayability due to its roguelike mechanics, procedurally generated worlds, and rewarding exploration that unlocks items and power-ups. While many players appreciate the variety and challenge it offers, some note that achieving 100% completion can be tedious, and a few find the replay value lacking compared to similar titles. Overall, the game is considered fun and engaging, with significant replay potential, especially at a discounted price.

    • “With its roguelike approach and procedurally generated worlds, the game offers high replay value and a unique experience with each playthrough.”
    • “Endless fun, the grind is rewarded with unlockables, extremely high replay value!”
    • “Fury Unleashed is endlessly replayable and enormously satisfying with its appetizing composition of big guns, big challenge, and even bigger rewards.”
    • “Even when it's all said and done, there's little replay value, a thrown together story with unimportant characters, and the main protagonist has no identity.”
    • “Tldr: rogue-like game with some minor replayability but annoying to get achievements.”
    • “I'm kind of a perfectionist but the game requires you basically push yourself to the limits to get all of them, and the replayability is fun... just not that fun.”
  • grinding
    28 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive and tedious, often leading to frustration as they are required to repeatedly engage in low-reward activities to upgrade their characters. While some enjoy the initial fun and ease of entry, many feel that the game quickly devolves into a monotonous grind, particularly in later chapters where progress slows significantly. Overall, the grinding is seen as a major drawback, detracting from the overall enjoyment of the game.

    • “However, it quickly falls into a grinding loop to upgrade your character.”
    • “Way too grindy and you just end up playing the same area over and over until you are strong enough to progress.”
    • “But so many design elements waste the player's time and create frustration: 1) RPG skill tree makes players grind for XP and many of the nodes feel mandatory, 2) the shops are not balanced (especially the ones that cost HP), 3) so many invincible traps (it's a shooter: let me shoot stuff, not jump around avoiding fireballs), 4) the first chapter is fast-paced and fun, the next chapters are slow and tedious because enemies have too much HP and it breaks the flow of the game, 5) quests (do this X times and get a random reward) and special rooms (players are locked in until they clear it) feel like a chore.”

    The game is widely praised for its humor, with players highlighting its funny narrative, comical visuals, and engaging gameplay. The combination of great graphics, music, and a lighthearted theme contributes to an enjoyable experience, making it both entertaining and fun to play.
