Survivesmith is a reverse-bullet hell / bullet heaven game where you craft and forge your way to your final goal- the life essence. With multiple crafting/forging/fusion/skill systems, you create your own survival strategies to survive the hordes (and the biomes).
Biomes
Within a level, you will find many biomes. All these biomes have their own unique theme, look and feel to them so you'll know when you find one. But it's not all looks. All these biomes pose you their own hazard at you, making their traversal difficult and dangerous. Craft and use the Hazard Protection (Haz-Pro) items from the Forge Pod and make exploration a breeze.
Biome Hazards
Every biome has some kind of hazard to throw at you. Make sure you are ready for these random environmental changes, unless... you find a way to turn the tides in your favor.
Resource Gathering
In each biome, there are many resources to find, all unique to each biome. Some are obtained from the ground, some by harvesting mineral nodes, scrap piles or trees, and some by defeating different biome creatures. Collect all you can, because no amount is too much!
Weapon Mods & Haz-Pro Items
Once in a while, a Forge Pod聽will drop nearby, letting you craft Weapon Mods and Haz-Pro items. But to craft what you need, explore the different biomes and gather enough resources.
There are 3 different weapon mod categories: Propulsion, Impact and Prototype. Experiment with what each mod does and find the best combo that suits you.
Haz-Pro items are crafted in a similar manner, but is essential for making biome traversal easier. Craft the matching Haz-Pro item for the biome you want to explore and be on your merry way for even more crafting!
Survival Kit
Defeating the evil robot minions will grant you with Scrap Metal. But they also have a chance to drop some Fine Metal. Use this resource to craft quick-use items from your Survival Kit to escape tight situations or give you an advantage in battle.
Power Cores
Fuse various core fragments dropped by enemies to create unique power cores with combined effects. One weapon, hundreds of combinations. Try them all!
Tactical Skills
Every survivor has multiple tactical skills, ultimate abilities and their primary weapons are all equipped with overcharge abilities. Use the ones that fit your playstyle and survive the oncoming robot hordes.
Level-Up Systems
Your character levels up in-run by collecting experience orbs. Choose from Strength, Vitality, Agility and several sub-categories in them to maximize your character's survivability. Perform well in-run to permanently level up your characters, weapons and armor modules to have a better chance at getting to that 'Life Essence'.
Helper Gadgets
Bring up to 2 gadgets to swap between in-run to aid you with tedious tasks like finding resources, collecting resources, or to heal yourself or simply have extra fire-support! Level them up alongside you and maximize their effectiveness.
Preset Loadouts
In Survivesmith, you don't have to submit to the randomness of the upgrades you get. While there are many random elements to experience in the game, your loadout isn't one of them. Make sure you know what you're doing, and equip well before a round!
Survive, adapt, and unleash absolute firepower in Survivesmith. Discover hidden weapon secrets, master your loadout, and forge your own path to the ultimate prize鈥攖he Life Essence. Do you have what it takes to outlast the human-made machine hordes and the unforgiving nature to save humanity?
