Vice Grill: Synthwave Survival

About This Game

• Intense Top-Down Shooter Action: Engage in fast-paced combat against hordes of mutants with dual-pistols and electric melee attacks.

• Immersive Synthwave Soundtrack: Feel the adrenaline rush as you fight to the beats of an electrifying synthwave soundtrack by Karl Casey.
• Dynamic Enemy Waves: Adjust the difficulty by toggling waves of enemies as desired, empowering the player to manage the rhythm of combat. Players have the option to halt waves prematurely or let them proceed naturally. This grants players the freedom to tailor their gameplay experience, whether they prefer engaging in combat or focusing on resource gathering and crafting. Furthermore, the duration and intensity of enemy spawns adapt dynamically based on the player’s progression through these waves.
• Resource Gathering and Crafting: Explore the vibrant, neon-lit landscape to scavenge Junk Piles and harvest Wild Crops, which are essential for crafting and survival. Junk Piles provide Steel for turret repairs and Wood for crafting shipments. Meanwhile, Wild Crops like the Avocato, Berrato, Carotato, Pineapplanto, and Spinachberry are collected for their raw food potential. These raw ingredients undergo refinement at the Processing Station, transforming into processed variants corresponding to their crop type. Processed foods are then taken to the Campfire, where players can create a variety of meals. By preparing five dishes matching the type requested by the Shipment Station, players can combine them with Wood to fulfill the order, earning a significant payout of Screws, the in-game currency.
• Turret Customization: Enhance the fire rates, projectile speeds, and durability of your turrets to effectively repel the constant waves of mutant attacks.
• Dynamic Jobs: Engage in a variety of dynamic jobs, from collecting items to hunting mutants, with challenges and rewards that increase as you advance.
• Survivalist Upgrades: Boost your own capabilities by upgrading your HP, SP, and Movement Speed. This will ensure your survival in the challenging environment.
• Water Pump Mini-game: Master the dynamic mini-game by utilizing the Water Pump to collect Purified Water. In this game, you’ll need to enter a randomized sequence of WASD keys repeatedly. Sell your collected Purified Water to earn Screws, introducing an additional layer of engagement and strategy to your survival efforts.
• Risk of Losing Screws: Beware of the consequences of failure, as dying in battle results in the loss of all your hard-earned Screws. This risk adds tension to every encounter, encouraging strategic decision-making and prudent resource management to ensure your survival in the unforgiving neon-lit streets of Vice Grill.
• 80’s Themed Aesthetic: Dive into a vivid and retro-futuristic realm awash with cyan-purple hues and nostalgic vibes.
