The game has a leveling system, where the player gains experience in the form of radiation pellets, or "rads", dropped by enemies, that allow them to get different mutations and choose what would benefit the character the most out of a selection of four, randomly selected mutations. Except for special weapons acquired in a hidden level and "crowns" retained until after defeating the final boss, anything acquired in one playthrough does not carry over to the next. The user may continue looping indefinitely until death. After this, the player may choose to loop to the beginning of the game again with a greatly increased difficulty. The player progresses through the linear level structure until level 7–3, where the final boss, the Nuclear Throne, has to be defeated. Secondary sprites or skins can be acquired for the characters played if the player completes special or secret tasks. These individual abilities allow for different play-styles, improving the variety and replay value of the game. Each character has an ability unique to them, adding an additional element to the gameplay. Two additional secret characters can only be played under special circumstances during play. The player controls one of a total of 12 characters, 10 of which must be unlocked through play. There are also daily and weekly challenge modes, allowing the player to compete against others via the Steam platform for the best score (determined by the number of kills in the playthrough), on the same set of randomly generated levels. The game consists of two main game modes: single-player, and a local cooperative gameplay mode. Nuclear Throne is a top-down shooter roguelike game with bullet hell elements. Nuclear Throne was released for Linux, Microsoft Windows, OS X, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Vita in December 2015, for Nintendo Switch in March 2019, and for Xbox One in September 2021. Early prototypes of the game were distributed through Steam's early access program in 2013. The ruined wastelands of the original game’s levels are contrasted with clear sand and waters, though the cleaner scenery doesn’t stop hostile mutants from running around, like some seagull bandits.Nuclear Throne is a bullet hell roguelike video game developed by Vlambeer. Yet the waters now go beyond the Oasis, with the introduction of a new beachside area. The Oasis, a secret area in the original game for instance, is expanded with some new enemies and a whole different boss to fight in order to gain access to the area. As expected of a fan expansion, new enemies and items are introduced to Nuclear Throne while maintaining the original game’s flavor. The expansion is made by Team Te and is published under Yokin on itch.io. Today, Nuclear Throne: Territorial Expansion has come out after 2 years of work to further build on the base game. Improved mod support is opening the way for mods like blaac’s expanded Hard Mode and TheMysticSword’s Dicey Wastelands, which brings Dicey Dungeons into Nuclear Throne. Nuclear Throne Together, a mod by YellowAfterlife, enabled online co-op and more open mod support for the game. While official development on the game seems to be over (besides a Switch port that popped up a few months ago), the game has a somewhat healthy modding scene. Nuclear Throne is a well-known roguelike shooter made by Vlambeer that stands along the likes of Enter the Gungeon and the Binding of Isaac.
