Evaluation

Heavy Bullets launched into Early Access and reached its 1.0 release on September 15, 2014. At that time, the developer explicitly stated there were no plans to add more content, committing only to bug fixes and community engagement. The game received a handful of post-launch bug fix patches, the last of which was on October 11, 2014. The only DLC — a soundtrack — was released on the same day as the game itself. In October 2017, the developer announced a follow-up game (High Hell), which confirmed Heavy Bullets was a completed, standalone project. No further updates, content announcements, or developer communications about Heavy Bullets have occurred since October 2014. The game shipped as a finished product and has remained in that state.

About this game


Armed with a simple yet stylish revolver and six devastatingly plump bullets, you must reset the security mainframe to restore order and reap the rewards of a job well done. To succeed in the game, players will need to move carefully and make smart use of their bullets, items, and the environment as rushing into new areas is the fastest way to get killed in the untamed wild of the neon corridors.



Limited Ammunition - Begin each attempt to reach the mainframe with just six bullets for your revolver that must be picked back up after each shot and manually reloaded one by one - make them count.



A Plethora of Items - Discover items and perks to aid you on your way to the mainframe. From homing bombs and coin magnets to a teleporter and high heels, each item will change up your approach. Choose wisely as you can only carry one item unless, of course, you find a backpack.



Shopping and Banking - While death is permanent, money in the bank can live on for future attempts at reaching the mainframe. Make a deposit or withdrawal from one of many conveniently placed automatic banking machine throughout the facility. Or just blow your cash on a shopping spree - up to you.



Life Decisions - Invest in items like Life Insurance or a Last Will that, if carried during the time of your unexpected death, will save your money, bullets, bombs, and keycards for your next attempt.



Aggressive Creatures + Malfunctioning Security - Face down dozens of nasty creatures lurking around the colorful hallways and the now malfunctioning security drones meant to defend against those same creatures.
