Devolver's Mycopunk is a chaotic co-op romp with silly robots, outlandish upgrades, and dismemberment
If you're in the mood for a bit of mayhem, Devolver Digital would like a word. The publisher's just unveiled Mycopunk, …
What you have, then, is a mission-based co-op FPS inspired by the likes of Risk of Rain, with a focus on movement, weird guns, and an outlandish upgrade system that - as Pigeons at Play explained during a recent press showing - is designed to create cool builds that break the game "in a good way". The Bruiser, meanwhile, is more about up close and personal combat and comes armed with a shotgun and projector shield that can push enemies back, deflect bullets, even slam into that ground, causing everyone - including allies - to be launched into the air. You'll find upgrades - spanning standard, rare, epic, and exotic tiers - that increase grenade charging speeds, that turn them into cluster bombs, that imbue weapons with infinite ammo that'll start burning you if you hold fire down too long.
