Update 1.3.2. New Gun and Bug Fixes.

Necro Mutex now has a new gun.

The alt fire shocker attack from the flamer has been promoted to its own weapon, the Electrogun. It ranks above the rocket launcher in terms of price. Its alt fire is a concentrated long range arc of electricity, a handy complement to the short range area effect of the primary fire.

The Flamer has a new alt mode, blasting a rapid fire stream of incendiary grenades. Great for taking out bigger targets or clearing areas that you can't see, just bounce some grenades in.

1.3.2 also has a number of bug fixes for issues that were introduced in 1.3.0, the two main ones being the leaderboard sometimes not updating, and some code that wrongly saw the new maps as sign of an error.

Hope you enjoy the new gun, and let me know on the discussion page if any more bugs show up.

“At what point does video game violence cross the threshold from fun to gratuitous, off-putting, or simply put too much? While this is not a debate I’m capable of settling, I can confidently say Necro Mutex teeters dangerously close to that edge. ... The thanatoids, hideous as they appear, bear far more resemblance to humans than monsters. Their limbs explode off when shot. They leave behind grotesque carcasses and large puddles of blood, filling levels with trails of gore. ... It throws plenty of gore and carnage in your face without ever stopping to consider why.”

About This Game

* Playable as a desktop shooter or in VR using the HTC Vive, Oculus Rift and WMR.
* VR mode supports 360 and 180 degree tracking plus step rotation.
* 10,000 maps, ranging from super easy to certain death.
* Play the levels you want, stay on the easy maps or jump to high risk, high reward sectors.
* Collect rewards from completed maps to upgrade a variety of weapons and skills.
* A multitude of different enemies and special map challenges.
* Multiple leaderboards for different game modes.
* Hardcore old-school shooter with rogue-like elements.

An Orcus Research Cartel station orbiting a deep space magnetar has gone rogue. The operating system has killed the crew and turned them into thanatoids, half dead monsters with a lust for murder. And if that's not bad enough, the corporate A.I. back at Earth System has triggered the station's self destruct sequence. Your only chance is to fight your way through an army of weaponized undead and find an escape pod, before time runs out or the thanatoids overwhelm you.

10,000 levels of chaotic science fiction horror that rise inexorably in difficulty. Choose which maps you play, in any order, from the dead easy beginning sectors to the certain death end sectors. Take on extra challenges for big rewards, and use those rewards to buy new weapons and survival skills. The maps start small and painless, but sector by sector the challenge mercilessly ramps up, until at some point they become practically impossible. Where that point is depends on your skill.

Find the escape pods to complete the game, or just keep going and see how far you can get. Rise up on the leaderboards.
