Fury Unleashed

Fun game in co-op but gets boring quickly.

A hidden gem for those that want to play something really good, the game is super polished, amazing graphics, and really fun to play.

Great replayability value, my son loves to play it so it's nice to have the no blood option in the settings.

Fury Unleashed is the result of blending the fast-paced intensity of modern roguelite platformers like Dead Cells and Rogue Legacy with the nostalgic thrill of classic run-and-gun shooters such as Contra and Metal Slug. The developers dedicated five years to refining every aspect of the game to ensure it delivers an experience that resonates with fans of both old-school and contemporary action games. Their passion and commitment shine through, promising players an unforgettable adventure packed with skillful combat and relentless excitement.
Set inside the pages of a living comic book, the game treats each room like a vibrant comic panel, where ink serves as a precious resource shaping the world around you. The story follows John Kowalsky, the creator of the Fury Unleashed comic series, who is struggling through a creative block. As the player, you step into the shoes of his hero and navigate this visually striking universe, uncovering the reasons behind John’s crisis and helping him find inspiration once again. This narrative layer adds depth to the relentless action, giving players a unique motivation beyond just defeating enemies.
Combat in Fury Unleashed revolves around speed, precision, and maintaining momentum. You’re encouraged to eliminate foes swiftly to build up your fury meter, allowing you to unleash devastating attacks and tear through obstacles without taking damage. Mastering this flow is key, as the game challenges you to clear entire runs in one seamless, epic combo. For those seeking a more tailored experience, the game offers an adjustable difficulty mode, letting you choose between a punishing Hard mode that tests your limits or an Easy mode where you can fine-tune settings to suit your preferences. Whether playing alone or teaming up with a friend in co-op, you have the freedom to customize your hero’s abilities and appearance—even swapping in your own face graphic for a personal touch.
The levels themselves are a compelling mix of handcrafted design and procedural generation, ensuring every playthrough feels fresh and unpredictable. Along the way, you’ll gather powerful items that complement your playstyle and unlock permanent upgrades that persist through your deaths, adding a layer of progression that motivates repeated runs. With a total of 40 bosses spread across various comic book-inspired worlds—each with their own distinct enemies and environments—the game offers a rich variety of challenges that keep the gameplay exciting and rewarding.
Adding to the immersive experience is the soundtrack, composed by Adam Skorupa and Krzysztof Wierzynkiewicz, renowned for their work on titles like The Witcher, Bulletstorm, and Shadow Warrior 2. Their epic compositions perfectly match the game's intensity and comic book atmosphere, enhancing every moment with a powerful musical backdrop. Fury Unleashed delivers a captivating blend of style, story, and action that invites players to dive into its comic pages and unleash their fury in an unforgettable run-and-gun adventure.
Rating: 8/10

Just simply fun. Get guns, shoot monsters. Real old-school feel to it, from an era when games were just trying to be fun and not cinematic experiences.

This game is a blast! You're rewarded for playing fast and keep your kill streak going, makes it a lot of fun. Honestly not as challenging as the reviews may have made it out to be.

1 hour in i know i made the right choice, what a little gem this game is.
genuinely havent had much fun in games for a while, but i come from the retro gaming era so this style is right up my street. It reminded me why i got into gaming in the first place. Enjoyed every minute so far.
Bought on sale at a steal of £1.67. Will support dev in future for sure they deserve more of my money!
