About CORE

✦ AI summary

CORE is a retro-style first-person shooter where you pilot a robot descending into Earth's core, obliterating waves of enemies across level-based gauntlets that culminate in boss encounters with planetary cores. The relentless action demands mastery without checkpoints or difficulty options, punctuated by unique level gimmicks like zero-gravity sections and tower climbs set to an intense, fast-paced soundtrack.

DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME IF YOU ARE SENSTIVE TO FAST MOTION,FLASHING LIGHTS, LOUD SOUNDS, AND VIOLENCE.

CORE is a "Retro" style fps or rather fpp \ about a robot going into the earth and destroying it from the inside out. The gameplay is level based with many waves of enemies housed within them. Every fourth level of an Act you will fight and destroy an Earth Core.Basic gist of the gameplay vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvKill a wave of enemies in a set location > either a button, or the wave itself will open a door to the next section > and finally the last wave will tend to be harder than the rest \. Also, there are no check-points in any level, meaning if you die, you need to completely restart the level.None of the levels have “map hazards”: but some will have gimmicks like lowered gravity and giant towers you need to climb.There also aren't any difficulty setting, so the difficulty is set to how I think it should be as the developer.The music is mainly intense and fast paced, if you are sensitive to that type of music PLEASE don't play my game or just turn it off, it is not necessary.

✦ AI summary

CORE is a quirky action game where players enjoy the fun of taking down waves of enemies, with difficulty ramping up quickly in a way that adds to the challenge and appeal. Players describe it as an entertaining experience worth playing, though the steep difficulty curve means it's best suited for those who embrace challenging gameplay rather than casual players.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
