Metallic Child

『METALLIC CHILD』Developmental status Vol.31

Let us get into the details of the upcoming update!

[The new "Advanced combat setting"]
After clearing the game, a new Advanced combat setting will be available to choose from in the stage menu.


In the basic setting, new enemies only arrive after all the current ones have been defeated.
In the Advanced setting, reinforcements will arrive while there are enemies still left, leaving you no time to catch your breath during battle.


In return, skill attacks will increase in effectiveness, so go all out!



[The new Custom]
When all stages are cleared in the Advanced setting, the Custom, OVERTURN, will become available!


With OVERTURN equipped, the exclusive weapon, Gatling Fists, will be equipped at the start of the stage.

Quite the firepower, eh?


You may feel overwhelmed by the onrush of enemies in the Advanced setting, but on the bright side, you have more chances of Double, Triple, and Fantastic Kills!

Even those who feel they have mastered the game, how about giving the Advanced setting a try?


So, next up is a thing called the "Bottomless Labs."
Join us next week for details!

Please add this game to your wishlist!
