Mechanics

The gameplay is a classic hybrid of platform game and 2D shooter with strongly accented roguelite elements. The world of Nongunz consists of hundreds of randomly generated levels where cultists, gravediggers, flying skulls, and other beings from hell await us. Many of them have to be eliminated by the hero on his way, and others will help him to develop his skills. Nongunz: The Doppelganger Edition has a high level of difficulty, so having a death that resets the point counter is easy.

The game offers a rich arsenal that makes it easy to shoot numerous opponents, from 9mm pistols to AK rifles and snipers to rocket launcher and bow. The important thing is that used ammunition cannot be recovered or collected from the fallen bodies, but we can hold up to a hundred different revolvers in holster. During the game, we also collect power-ups, e.g. to increase damage for a certain period of time or to increase the speed of movement, and special heads to allow for example teleportation to a place where lurking enemies can be bypassed. Moreover, in Nongunz: Doppelganger Edition there are unique cards that offer various benefits (treatment, passive effects or the option of creating your own followers to help us exterminate sinister creatures).

In Nongunz: Doppelganger Edition, it is extremely important to score points by shooting at enemies without any memory and creating combinations, because they are a currency for which you can buy special abilities and deadly weapons and create an army of lost souls as a useful support in combat.

Game modes

Nongunz: The Doppelganger Edition, in addition to single-player gameplay, allows you to have fun in a local co-op (the other player takes on the role of the main character's double), which has been added together with the arena mode with almost endless fights.

Technical aspects

Nongunz: The Doppelganger Edition is a completely original version of the game from 2017. It was developed on the popular Unity engine. The graphics, which have been maintained in a dark pixel-like retro style, bring to mind game from the early 90s. What additionally distinguishes this game is the presentation of locations and characters mainly in shades of grey.
