About Tesla vs Lovecraft

✦ AI summary

Battle Lovecraftian horrors in this intense top-down twin-stick shooter as Nikola Tesla, piloting a devastating mech armed with tesla cannons and reality-bending gadgets. Mow down waves of nightmarish monsters with innovative weapons and upgrades while uncovering the truth behind H.P. Lovecraft's attack on your laboratory.

Tesla vs Lovecraft is an intense top-down twin stick arena shooter from the creators of Crimsonland and Neon Chrome. Play as the enigmatic inventor Nikola Tesla harnessing the static energy to power up Tesla-Mech and give the lovecraftian nightmares a lesson in horror!

You are Nikola Tesla, world-famous inventor and genius extraordinaire. At the eve of your greatest invention, your laboratory is burned down by the horror author H.P. Lovecraft, who claims that your actions have put the world in peril. With the help of his occult book, and a vast army of monsters, he has stolen your most precious inventions!

Tesla-Mech, an immensely powerful machine of war at your disposal. Mow down your opponents with twin-mounted Tesla-Miniguns, and trample over monsters like they were ants.

Quantum Teleportation, packed neatly into one handy portable backpack. (Includes a warning label about Theseus-paradox, whatever that is)

If nightmares had nightmares, this is what they’d look like. Monsters so horrible they’ll make you eat up your own sanity!

Save the world with a plethora of inventions and gadgets, including (but not limited to) X-Ray Blade and Death Ray Gun.

Applied physics vs. Untold horrors: that feels right. The plot is simple but it is enough; story takes you through the iconic locations from Lovecraft stories with Tesla's mystical bullet-hell inventions. The battles really feel epic with quite a number of entities on screen at all times and also very dynamic where the next upgrade can totally turn the tables. The game does not feel boring to play: it is a power fantasy we deserve

Fun game, good controls, horde survival twin stick shooter, one of my favorite genres and two of my favorite themes between Cosmic Horror and Tesla Tech. So cool. Really fun. I beat the game in 3 hours or so on normal plane (mode). There are two more planes to do this on that are harder. Lots of unlocks and progression tables for grinding up the upgrades to push farther into the difficulty. A little RNG goes a long way as certain combinations are just devastating others. Anytime I get the tesla ray and choose several barrel upgrades and piercing and ricochet, it's GG to the map and just teleport the outskirts and firing inward. If I RNG that combination of upgrades, it's GG. I beat the final stage in the game without effort from this once I figured out the best things to stack to fill the map with non-stop damaging attacks and not need secondaries or shields or the mech at all.

I've completed this now on Steam and the PS4. It's a nice little twin-stick shooter with fun, basic mechanics. It may get slightly repetitive after a while, but it's short enough to not overstay its welcome. Recommended if you can get it on sale.

I absolutely love this game. It is totally addictive and very fun. I wish there was another one or a new DLC or some way to get more of this action.
