![]() The theme is definitely interesting and does fit surprisingly well as a twin-stick shooter. Thankfully, we have developer 10tons creating the fictional side of this battle with Tesla Vs Lovecraft, a twin-stick shooter with plenty of fantastical moments and shooting action for the Nintendo Switch. In fact, the two men battled against this very ideal in real life and now in the video game medium. Looking at Wikipedia will tell you that both Tesla and Lovecraft were once disgraced in their lifetime, but it wouldn’t be until later that they would be recognized for their crowning achievements in fact versus fiction. Lovecraft you most likely think of a world renown scientist/inventor and a famous author of influential horror fiction. Get ready to zap some monsters back into the Aether realm in this fast-paced Lovecraftian nightmare! Release Date: 16 th of March, 2018 ( EU & NA) But if you like fighting off large waves of monsters, you’ll get a lot of fun out of its endless mode.Ma6:39 am Published by minusthebrant 1 Comment I only wish there were a bit more substance to the cutscenes and a few more story missions packed in for good measure. Tesla vs Lovecraft doesn’t reinvent the twin-stick shooter genre, but it’s a hell of a lot of fun and has its own weird and distinct style. The default enemy count ss at around 150, but you can bump it all the way up to 600! I’d recommend bumping up the monster count to the maximum in the options. Once you’ve really got a handle on things it’s a huge amount of fun to watch the screen populate with huge waves of monsters. Of course, Tesla vs Lovecraft also comes equipped with an endless mode. You’ll only have access to the normal plane at the outset and you’ll have to beat each mode to unlock the subsequent difficulty. There are three difficulty modes split into the Normal, Aether, and Eldritch planes. You can blow through all of it in about two hours. As a heads up you won’t really start picking up these crystals until you’ve played through the story on its base difficulty. There are a series of permanent upgrades available, like increases to the mech’s armor, that require Aether crystals, found in story missions. Health packets and secondary abilities, like static clouds and electric pylons, can be grabbed also. You can replace your pistol with everything from a repeater shotgun to a gauss assault rifle. If you want to pack a bigger punch, there will be plenty of item drops on the map as you progress. everything from bullet ricochets, damage increases and poison ammo can change how you tackle each mission. ![]() As you mow down enemies you’ll gain levels, and with each level you’ll be prompted with a choice of upgrades. Tesla can teleport to quickly escape enemies, but this ability comes with a cooldown. Should you lose your transport, you’ll need to collect its parts from around the map if you want to temporarily power up again. In this pinnacle piece of engineering, you’ll tear through the hordes of Lovecraftian monsters at an alarming rate, but it won’t last long.Įventually, said mech will explode and you’ll be reduced to an unarmored, pistol-wielding Tesla. Tesla starts each encounter in a giant, static-powered mech. The appeal is all in the game’s weird premise, and blowing away hordes of otherworldly monsters as a gun-toting Nikola Tesla is pretty damn cool.Īt its base, Tesla vs Lovecraft is a run-of-the-mill twin-stick shooter, but much like its predecessor Crimsonland, it’s all of the upgrades that you amass during gameplay that keep things interesting. Cut to Lovecraft then invoking Cthulu, of all things, to put a stop to Tesla’s static machines. warns Tesla that he’s meddling with things he couldn’t possibly understand, before being hauled off to a cell by authorities. The story opens with Tesla showing off his latest tech when an enraged H.P. which you can use to put down the hordes of Shoggoth and pals. Tesla comes equipped with a static powered mech, a slew of other inventions and an entire arsenal of guns. ![]() You play as inventor Nikola Tesla whose experiments have somehow evoked the wrath of a few Lovecraftian horrors.
