They’re fun for your own sake and can help you stand out when playing locally or online with others. As you play, you’ll unlock different hats for your spider.

#SPIDERHECK RELEASE DATE HOW TO#

It never felt like I was just plowing through the levels I had to try and retry many of them to figure out how to slay certain enemies with certain weapons that would not necessarily have been my first choices. I enjoyed this mode both as practice for different scenarios in Wave Survival and as its own challenge. Tiers of Heck is a challenge mode where pre-determined maps, weapons, sets of enemies, and other conditions challenge you to clear three waves. The mode feels well-balanced as you go from early into later rounds. Perks can slow down time when using swords, increase bomb blast radii, give you one extra hit on your last life, and a number of other useful things.

In Wave Survival, you start with three lives and gain one back plus some kind of perk for every level you pass.

Whether playing through Wave Survival to reach the highest wave you can or trying the challenge maps of Tiers of Heck, you’ll feel like many of your rounds are spent on trial and error to find the best tactic to take on enemies with what weapons you have, what map you’re on, and what playstyle you lean towards. They also gain additional armor and take more hits to take out as you go along, rather than just increasing the number of enemies on screen at a time. Physical weapons have different ranges too, and you’ll have to constantly keep on your toes to pick up new ones or even swap out for something more practical for handling the enemy type at hand.Įnemies aren’t super diverse, but they’re definitely diverse enough that you’ll be switching up your tactics on their account frequently. Some gun weapons will fire one blast at a time but give you more ammo, while others will fire huge, wide bursts but only give you two shots. Your weapons have limited uses, radiuses, and power. You can’t just camp out in a corner with a laser sword. The gravity is entirely fair, aiming is spot-on, and the array of different weapons makes sure that your movement is varied too. When you do, though, it will feel really good. You’ll get a slowly increasing difficulty in either mode, but it will take a good bit of practice to get the movement down just right. It’s not a game that throws you into a bullet hell deep end instantly or anything like that. Foremost, the gravity of swinging around the game’s floating platforms, walking around on them on any side, and dodging enemies, projectiles, and going out of bounds takes practice to nail. But for as simplistic as the controls are, the gameplay is tough to master. There are only so many things you can control in SpiderHeck: movement, jumping, swinging from spiderwebs, picking up weapons, aiming them, and firing or throwing them.

In this straightforward but increasingly challenging game, you play as a spider who takes arms against waves of enemies in one of two challenge modes, Wave Survival and Tiers of Heck, or against other spiders in Versus Battle. SpiderHeck is a physics-based brawler by developer Neverjam and published by tinyBuild.
