Fantastic modern classic

*WHAT IS IT* This is the true sequel to the classic BUILD games many people grew up with, such as Blood, Redneck Rampage, Shadow Warrior, and especially Duke Nukem 3D - from which this game takes most of its inspiration in terms of overall feel and design. It uses the same engine, updated for modern hardware. *VISUALS* This game features visuals that are both clear and pixelated. It accomplishes this retro look by using art assets that are higher in resolution than those used in the classic BUILD engine games, but lower than those of other contemporary titles. This results in a visual style that is both reminiscent of our memories of the classics, without going as low-res as its inspirations had to due to technological limitations of that era. *AUDIO* I don't have the technical expertise to judge this in depth, but the audio mirrors the visuals in terms of their evolution. It is a throwback to the titles this game draws its inspiration from, and other games from that time -- while being a clear evolution in terms of quality. The music is damned good. They need to make this soundtrack available for download or purchase. *LEVEL DESIGN* Bigger and better sums this one up. Gameplay-wise the maps flow together with a seamlessness that not even the classics managed, and there are spectacular and memorable setpieces that stand out and will be long remembered. From a software perspective the maps feel more expansive than any BUILD game that came before it, and clearly push the classic engine to its limits. These maps were made by a team of very skilled designers who understand the BUILD engine thoroughly, which is evident from the complexity of their design. *FINAL VERDICT* By going 20 years back in time to the roots of these type of games and expanding upon what made them so great, this game does more to advance the genre than most similar games of the last decade. I can't wait to see what else this team does - hopefully those plans include expansion campaigns. 9.5/10

A very fun blast from the past

Good Guns are satisfying Atmosphere (In the beginning) Movement Level Design (I only got stuck once, as in ran around aimlessly for barely 5 minutes) Lots of secrets, I only got a third of them Graphics are just beautiful Voice acting was suprisingly well done Bad Performance stutters, ESPECIALLY IN THE FINAL BOSS FIGHT JESUS CHRIST it was like a power point presentation Enemy variety, weapon variety both weak The enviroments barely changed, it felt like one very long episode (compare this game to another similar shooter Shadow Warrior. It starts off in a city, ends in a volcano, with jungles, temples, sky scrapers, boats, underground research facilities, giant gunships, submarines, and a host of other locations. All but one of Ion Fury's 27 levels are within a city, with one level having a section where you're on a cliff side briefly) Boss Fights were incredibly weak Final Boss was challenging, but only because it cripples your system. Verdict A very fun action game to get on sale, it's nostalgic to play and experience, but one can feel a bit tired by the end of the journy, as if it wears out its welcome. Also idgaf about them removing "ogay" or "fagbag" because it was only a tiny texture on some bottles that I never found.

Nice modern version of Duke Nukem

To be honest this game falls off somewhere around the middle. It just gets repetitive especially because of the enemy types being nearly identical most of the time. The shooting, the levels and the world are all cool, like a very cheesy version of Judge Dredd or Blade Runner. But the game gets boring. In my opinion. Which to be fair also happened in Duke Nukem 3D

Build't to entertain, fast and fun

Played: Stock Version 1.02 (4 years old) & 3.0.0.9 (2 months old, latest version) (5 available versions spanning 4 years at time of writting) Ion Fury is a very fun and fast paced game, the plot is simple but the run-and-gun gameplay will still put a big smile on your face. The base game offers a lot of variety in map design and easter eggs and enemies, with lots of weapons to counter them. The only negatives I can think of is the lack of wacky/unique weapons, or the late game enemies that I wish had more unique attacks, Ohh and the removal of the software render option from the pre-game settings box. I love Ion Fury and instantly jumped on the physical when it was available, the work done to the build engine was amazing to see and the gameplay really fixed an itch that I missed, well worth the money. I was absolutely ecstatic when I saw the announcement for the DLC called - Aftershock: Yet again the mad lads pushed the limits of the build engine in a DLC thats longer than some full campaigns out today. The new easter eggs and abilities and weapons and the new hoverbike are brilliant additions. the map design yet again feels so unique and avoids feeling repetative. The new enemies were fun to engage especially when they were first introduced as I wasnt expecting them at all, but man I wish the enemy variants were more lethal in the higher difficulties (with more weapon quirks to feel wildly different from the stock weapons), heck the new drone didn't drop any mines for some reason so it was literally acting like the normal drone. Hope that gets fixed but regardless of that, Aftershock was super well done and well worth the cost. Side note: On my win 11 laptop the game doesnt display the game if you play full screen at a resolution lower than the max available, choose a lower resolution in windowed mode only, Win 10 didnt give me this issue. Also this game has GOG overlay but doesnt say it does, also no GOG achievments which is odd since Steam has them. 8.8/10

Level design complexity is stunning

Overall, the game is fun. Levels are huge, secrets are cryptic and fun to find. Monster and weapons design could be better, but isn't a big issue if you run around fast and shoot things up close.
