About NOKBAK

✦ AI summary

Knock opponents off floating arenas in this frantic multiplayer shooter where evolved dinosaurs compete in their own professional sport, with gameplay built around comeback mechanics that let anyone win until the final second. Bounty Mode rewards eliminating high-scoring players with their points, creating wild swings in momentum that keep every player dangerous no matter their current position.

Nokbak is a first-person multiplayer arena shooter... with a twist! Built for 3 to 8 players, players don't shoot to kill, but rather find themselves frantically trying to knock each other off of an arena in the sky. Set in a future where dinosaurs never went extinct, they've now evolved and developed their own professional sporting leagues, the most prominent being NOKBAK.

What makes NOKBAK unique is that anyone can win at any point in the game. We capitalized on the idea that it's not over till it's over. We mean it. Bounty Mode, a game mode in which you earn every KO'd player's points, is a core mechanic of this game and insures that even the player in last place can make a comeback. Even the top scoring players will have to watch their back! As players' scores grow exponentially, things get crazy quickly, even more so with lots of players.

First to 50 points wins a place as one of the top three NOKBAK MVPs!

[quote][b]Note: Dead PvP game[/b] This game contains no meaningful single player content. There's no viably populated servers/active player population. This game cannot be played as intended.[/quote] "NOKBAK" is one of literally thousands of student projects infesting Steam. It's from BYU Center for Animation in the USA. While student projects tend to be better quality than most "amateur" made games, we must still question what value such projects have for gamers. As with all student projects, this isn't really a fully fleshed out game, it's just the result of an academic exercise, and as such it has much more limited value as a game than a professionally developed game would have. Educational institutions should not be using Steam as a dumping ground for homework assignments (especially if the students didn't even pass the course). Sure, it helps their marketing and helps the students feel good about themselves, but this is another case of a business putting themselves before the needs of gamers. For some reason the lecturers at BYU tried to teach the students that "PvP is content", and as always it's upsetting when students are taught the wrong thing on purpose. This is…

This is actually a pretty interesting idea for a game, its a pvp arena shooter except you go off of a similar damage system to smash bros, where you get launched further and further from the map with the more damage you take, meaning you only really die when youre launched out of map boundaries. Probably a little repetitive in it's current state, but i could see the potential if anyone actually played it.

Игра "NOKBAK" - это захватывающее приключение, основанное на корейской мифологии. Визуально игра очень привлекательна, обладает стильной графикой и атмосферным саундтреком, погружающим в мрачный, но красивый мир духов. Геймплей представляет собой смесь платформера и головоломки, где необходимо использовать силу стихий для преодоления препятствий и сражения с врагами. История, хоть и не лишена клише, достаточно интересна, чтобы поддерживать мотивацию к прохождению. Главная героиня Кина должна спасти свой народ от древнего зла, и ее путь полон испытаний и открытий. Однако, игра не лишена недостатков. Боевая система может показаться немного неуклюжей, а сложность некоторых головоломок иногда кажется неоправданно завышенной. Тем не менее, общее впечатление от "NOKBAK" положительное. Это добротно сделанная игра с интересным сеттингом и приятным геймплеем, которую можно рекомендовать любителям платформеров и тем, кто интересуется корейской культурой.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Planet Zoo 2 price: which edition, and when it gets cheaper

Planet Zoo 2 is out today. The Planet Zoo 2 price splits two ways, the cheap pre-order keys stopped existing three weeks ago, and the original got dearer as the sequel landed.
