Igor Aleksandrowicz has totally launched their retro-inspired FPS, Calcium Contract, on Steam. It’ll run you $15.99.

I first tried out Calcium Contract again in July and got here away impressed by its distinctive and weird tackle the subgenre. Again then, I stated, “It appears like if Duke Nukem 3D was designed by a studio localized inside McDonaldsland.” I form of stand by that. It’s a weird and colourful expertise a couple of Grim Reaper who has to convey down a rooster serpent that merely refuses to die.

Not like most different video games within the style, Calcium Contract isn’t about large weapons and greater explosions. Its arsenal consists of a lot of unusual contraptions that shoot issues like musical golden bones. Likewise, the enemies are an unlimited combination of chickens, cats, and lizards. Aleksandrowicz says their focus was on “sport really feel” and that basically reveals. There are many small touches which can be used to intensify your reference to the world, and cleverly eradicating wall-humping secrets and techniques signifies that the pacing isn’t slowed down.

If something, Calcium Contract’s largest subject is that it doesn’t have quite a lot of the most important promoting factors that folks search for with these kinds of video games (i.e. large weapons and greater explosions). That’s too dangerous because it’s each bit as intense as one with extra typical munitions. My hope is that it’ll nonetheless develop a big following regardless of this.

Sadly, I don’t suppose I’ll have time to do a proper evaluation of this one. Nevertheless, my preview earlier within the 12 months coated a reasonably sizeable chunk of the sport (greater than what was included within the demo), so the preview I did will nonetheless maintain true right now.

Calcium Contract is out there proper now for PC.
