Prepare to fry
Perhaps we’ll come to see these years as a golden age of destruction. Between the roguelikelike witchery ofNoitaand the heists ofTeardown, it’s a great time for games where simulated materials and physics come together for destruction that’s so much more than decorative. Now, after leaving early access in October, Noita has released its final major update, and it’s another big’un with more ways to destroy and be destroyed.
The giantEpilogue Update change listincludes new spells, new enemies, new minibosses, new hidden areas, new hidden structures, new biome modifiers, and more. With every pixel of Noita being a simulated material which interacts with others, it’s one of those games where reading patch notes can fill me with excitement and dread just imagining the possibilities. Changes include:
Noita 1.0 - The Daily Death, October 16th 2020Watch on YouTube
Noita 1.0 - The Daily Death, October 16th 2020
“While this is the last major update for Noita, it’s not going to be the End of Everything,” developers Nolla Games said. “We’ll still keep an eye out for bugs and try to patch them.” They also noted that modders are still modding, and we havesome recommendationson that front.
To celebrate the update, Noita has a 25% discount until Tuesday the 6th of April. You can get it for £11.61/€14.24/$14.99 or thereabouts onSteam,GOG,Humble, andItch.io. It is good.
“Noita’s simulated pixels are a magic trick, but they allow its design to break the frame other modern roguelikes seem to exist within,” Graham said in ourNoita review.
Only they end up destroying so much more than intended, possibly including themselves.
