the game everyone is talking about on steam

There are paranormal phenomena that science is unable to explain. Moreover, if we look at the sky, we find unidentified flying objects, also known as UFOs, which have no clear justification. And, of course, in the world of video games there is also a paranormal leg, one of those that leads to success titles that no one would have bet a single penny on. Is this the case of vampire survivors?

8-Bit Resembling Vampires

This strange phenomenon of the video game (it is available on Steam for only 4$) has a first and only culprit: a programmer named Luca Galante who is the one who had the idea to create this vampire survivors What resort to this nostalgia that gives us to see pixelated graphics

in the style of old 8 and 16 bit consoles. This is where its charm begins, but there are other elements that make it extremely fun and, above all, addictive and that have led it to lead the most played titles on platforms like Steam Deck.

Surely many of you have already heard of it vampire survivors Why has been available in early access for almost a yearsince December 2021, although it was not until October 22, 2022 that it really played in its final version, with the release of patch 1.0 that we can already consider the first of all released available, completely stable and with the content catalog originally designed by its developer.

Now, what does it have to make everyone want it and be among the 50 most played titles on Steam? well basically its simplicity, which does not require more than a few seconds to understand what it’s all about and soon he hooks us into a dynamic that will seem familiar to you from other releases that have become great successes: “they killed me!… too bad, once again”.

You don’t even have to shoot

The game puts us in the shoes of a hero that can be chosen and that moves on a small map which has its limits up, down, left and right, and as we move from side to side, hordes and hordes of enemies appear. How do we finish them? Well, the first news is that there is no fire button since our character does it automatically and with a very precise cadence.

So the difficulty is mentally calculating when the next shot will be fired (or attack) of our character, and take this into account so that when this happens we are as close as possible to the greatest number of enemies, which we will eliminate between horrible pixelated suffering. Obviously, as we survive on the map, we will collect objects and elements that will strengthen the attack power of our character until we reach a point where we can finish not with tens, but with hundreds of them at once.

Where is your secret? So basically in unlock more and more characters, powers, weapons, items, etc., which turn each game into a completely different experience, as dynamic and open as it is fun. Because you have to be clear on one thing: sooner or later you will die and without running the risk of your graphics card exploding.
