Ion Fury

For those who liked Duke Nukem 3D, Blood, Shadow Warrior, etc. you should buy it! Gameplay wise it's really worth it!

I can't tell you how many hours of my life went into playing Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior, Blood and Redneck Rampage back in the day. I just couldn't get enough of the build engine games, and another build engine game released in 2019!?!?...I think I've died and gone to Heaven!. I love the game so far!..keep up the good work! The gameplay is awesome, the music really sets the mood. The vivid colours are awesome..it's definitely not bland..that's for sure. It runs butter smooth on modern machines (being based on the build engine). The level design is good, so far everything is good! I would definitely recommend this game! P.S. I want to thank 3D Realms / Voidpoint for standing up and reversing their decision, I was not going to buy the game, I really wanted to play it but I was going to stick to my guns and not buy it. Then on monday I heard the good news so I bought a copy. It's not even about what the content in question was, it's the fact that the will of the minority (Reset Era) should not be able to overrule the will of the majority (the gamers). You could have even had a poll or something and I would have been satisfied with that approach. At least that way it would have been more democratic..not a dictatorship. I think you'll see now based on the Steam review statistics that you've made the right decision. People are loving your game, keep up the good work!!

Voidpoint and 3drealms decided to not censor the game so they didn't remove the bottle of soap. In my opinion Ion Fury is very good ,with a quite long campaign and excellent game design. There's not a huge variety of enemies and the weapons are nothing revolutionary, but the good level design, the huge amount of secrets, and the fast gameplay make this a must have for every fans of old- school fps.

It's all the best parts of the Build engine holy trinity: Duke's attitude and realistic environments, Shadow Warrior's enemy variety and generally better weapon balance, Blood's movement and map variety. And with the 3.0 update for Aftershock, it's also cleaned up a lot of those game engine's jank that it inherited from the original Build, which is perhaps the most impressive technical achievement of the game. It almost feels like sacrilege, I mean without the jank is it even a Build engine game? Of that first trio of retro shooters from 2019 - Ion Fury, Amid Evil, and Dusk - this is absolutely my favorite. It does such a fantastic job of balancing "plan your fights to make them easy" and "scramble through the fight or you'll die", and every weapon feels like it fulfills an important role in your arsenal. The electrifryer easily counters head spiders, and the crossbow secondary can be supercharged to wreck giant mechs, the penetrator with short bursts to the head quickly downs missile torsos. Secret hunting was vastly improved in the 2.0 update when the radar became capable of highlighting secrets as well as enemies, and the secrets are consistently worth tracking down on Hell Hath No Fury. Which is great, because exploring the interesting bits and bobs scattered around the corners of a Build engine map is half the fun. It's just a really good sprite-based FPS with long, beefy campaign. And the Aftershock expansion is great too, get that.

This game is awesome! Takes me back to everything I love about ‘90s shooters – simple, fast paced and rewarding gameplay, devoid of all modern crap like cut scenes, realism, gimmicks and console-itis. I’ve been playing shooters since the mid ‘90s, so you can probably guess my age - yeah I’m pretty old and have a mortgage and stuff like that. I’ve played just about every shooter there is and consequently have developed a real dislike for modern shooters (with a few exceptions), so much so I don’t even bother with them anymore, preferring to replay the classics. If you like classic shooters like Doom, Shadow Warrior, Duke Nukem 3D, Blood, Quake, etc, you’ll love Ion Fury. Be sure to support the developer by purchasing a copy - with our support, the developer and other independent developers will continue to produce other great games like this.
