it doesn't fit the game
same problem with Hedon - OST is decent and Alexander Brandon's tracks are good but they don't fit the game, at all

But... retro! Neon! 80s!

It sounds like 90's eurobeat which I guess fits the time frame. I haven't played this game yet but listening to this song I can't picture it fitting in any Build shooters. It sounds good but out of place.

it plays during a secret level where you kill waves of enemies on a rugby field.

I am dumping this thread to complain about the lack of sprite sheets.
Whoa, I didn't realize Jon St. John played the villain. Good game.

I think all the build games have this in a way or another. Can't really explain it properly but in a doom or quake you can feel a sort of distinctiveness about fighting different enemies, that seems to be lacking to me in build games, you just literally run and gun everything as you tend to be a glass cannon in these sort of games
For some reason, it took me until after I'd completed the game to figure out the joke with the dual submachine guns. Very cultured.

This sounds a lot like Mark "Mad Fiddler" Knight's work on the PS1 version of Duke 3D. I am 100% ok with that.
Ion Maiden's soundtrack is probably the best thing about the game.

Finished it. Overall I enjoyed it, except some parts.
When the demo came out more than two years ago, I really liked it, and I couldn't wait to play it, but they devs delayed it until August of the last year, that turned me down.
I got it at the summer sales, played it, but didn't liked it, just played thirty minutes and quit, and I wanted to prioritize other games. I gave it another chance in May of this year, didn't like either and quit it again. One last chance this month, and finally hooked me. I couldn't stop playing it, the first maps are great.
It's a good game, not as good as Duke3D or Blood, but I found it more compelling than Shadow Warrior at least. (Which I never found the way around, beyond the original setting, the artistic design and Lo Wang, whose awesome, and in my opinion way better than Duke or Caleb, at least their one liners are fresh and more original, and not just stolen from movies)
It's entertaining as an FPS made on the Build Engine, but it lacks that spark of creativity and freshness that the classics had. In that sense, the setting and the design of the enemies feel uninspired, but even so, I wouldn't say it's bad, could be better for sure, but they have their thing.
The weapons, while it is the same as I said before, nothing special except the Bowling Bombs and the dart, at least they are fun to use and satisfying. In Shadow Warrior I never liked the weapons despite their extravagant and original design, I always felt them weak or ineffective, it is the only thing that I never closed off from that one.
I liked most of the maps, most of them are really well done. The exceptions are the fifth zone, with that forest and the sewers, so boring. And parts of the last zone didn't seem interesting at all to me.
What surpassed me is that beyond not being original in the creative part, that they have to included those shitty zombies. Really?. Were they necessary?. What a joke.
The bosses, some are challenging, but all forgettable, and the ending is not the exception, frustrating the amount of hitscans enemies everywhere around the map.
As for Shelly Bombshell Harrison, sorry, but she is pretty lame as a classic FPS character compared to the classics. Although she steals phrases from movies here and there, she is simply boring as a character, to be forgotten.
Conclusion: it's ok, I enjoyed it despite some of the flaws, and for these times, it seems to me that it is worth playing it at least once. I doubt I'll play it again anytime soon thought.

Shadow Warrior has a weak arsenal? Bro...it has a goddamn nuke launcher, the strongest weapon of any build game. Also the strongest melee of any build game. Katana cuts shit in half in one swing. riot gun alt fire fires four shotgun shells in succession. Grenade launcher AND a rocket launcher, both of which wreck everything. Rail gun...I think you have the wrong game friend. Or you just didn't play beyond the first level or two.
Conclusion: play Shadow Warrior next.

Exactly, i admit it. Didn't like that shotgun, i think it was three shots in the altfire. Neither the uzis, even in tandem, i couldn't find them effective, and drains the ammo quickly. And yes, the grenade and rocket launcher are powerfull, but i don't remember how much ammunition were in the levels.
Never catch me as much as Duke3D or Blood, but probably i was playing the wrong way. Gonna give it another chance when i can.
The rail gun always felt a bit weird to me, because it only gibbed the weaker enemies, but it didn't one shot some of the stronger ones. Good for sniping, maybe that was the point. I also never really used the sticky bombs much, the time to explode was too long. They were fun playing around with though occasionally. Shurikens kinda useless too.
The rest was absolutely fine, the grenade launcher is one of my favorite weapons ever, nothing more fun than to unload it behind a corner to a room full of enemies, and watch the gibs fly.

People are releasing maps, new weapons, mods such as no reloading or enhanced radar... AFAIK, Ion Fury's Mapster is updated, can't tell if others old tools will also work, but on paper IF is as moddable as old Build games.

For GOG and 3DR digital download (and big box) owners that haven't been able to install updates to their products yet, there are also stand alone patchers available now that will update v1.00, v1.01, or v1.02 up to v1.1 here:
https://voidpoint.com/public/
In order to use the patch to update the big box version, you'll need to go back to your USB thumb drive and grab the fury-nodrm.bin file from the Linux folder (or zip file) and place it in your game directory. The patcher requires that fury-nodrm.exe, fury-nodrm.bin, fury.grp, and fury.grpinfo are all present in the same location.
