MOTHERGUNSHIP

its a unexpected treat of a game. i was almost expecting to not like the game but the game has its "stupid fun" charm despite it holding a description like "bullet hell" to make you think you are just gonna be people a game just for the challenge. the humor is a nice cherry on top too, so if you think you'll like this game, then go for it because i didnt regret it and i dont think you will either

I got mixed feelings about this game.
On one hand it's fun and looks and sounds great and it has good/funny writing,
On the other, it's repetitive, cursed with procedural generation, and if RNGeezus hates you you will not have the gun you want.
Sometimes I felt overpowered, sometimes too weak to complete a map, and I felt it wasn't because of a skill issue, but rather I just got dealt an impossible hand. Some(way-too-many) guns are practically useless.
Because of that I did not stay for the post-endgame content.

though i prefer tower of guns this was honestly really good aswell if you liked tog youll probably enjoy this although togs endless mode is what i consider a masterpiece the gunbuildig doesnt take much to learn and simple can be real powerful and the story isnt to bad either i big ol dweeb when it comes to tog though so consider what i say pretty biased mothergunship is really good and wither way if you enjoy wither one youll likely enjoy the other
i always enjoyed a goodegons pride with a caffinated trigger finger with a fire miney mod for crazy dmg at stages 30+ in mothergunship you can make sometimes similar on a more frequent basis which is something that i really liked you can get a good/strong build what i would consider on a more frequent/sooner basis and for the tinkerers some honestly really ridiculous builds

MOTHER-GUNNING MOTHERGUNSHIP

this game is like if you take borderlands and put it into a doom game, and its quite awesome.

construct a ridiculous gun that shoots however many of whatever wacky projectiles or bullets you like, then sprint and tessaracontouple-jump around bullet-hell rooms chock-full of enemies. this game is fast paced, funny, and even has co-op, though i did not have the opportunity to try co-op.

unfortunately some of the boss fights kinda suck, and some weapons are kinda bad (mostly the obscure ones). the inventory system is confusing at first and could do with a little explaining. plus while not required, if you want achievement tracking and online functions you will need to link to an epic games account.

Fun game. Played it like 5 years ago and recently was thinking about it again. Finally played the full game and enjoyed it. The ability to make your gun out of so many parts is so much fun. Having this huge gun that could block you whole screen just made me laugh. Would highly recommend.

4 hours isn't bad. Probably got it on sale but it's been a bit since I've actually played this and it's 7 years old at this point. I remember it being kind of clunkily chaotic near the end of levels though. Probably why I put it down

Really great dopamine loop:
1) Shoot baddies.
2) Buy gun parts.
3) Gun get bigger.
4) Repeat.
Eventually you can just build up to a god weapon that will empty the entire room as long as your facing the right direction. Would have put more hours into it, but one of the randomized rooms bugged out and generated with no exit and so I had to end my run, losing meta-progression in the process.
