Our take on DEATHRUN TV
The game makes the audience part of its action through Twitch chat commands that can change events during a run. This departs from a shooter structure in which the player alone controls what happens on screen; viewers may either assist the contestant or add danger.
What is DEATHRUN TV?
DEATHRUN TV is a fast-paced twin-stick shooter set inside a televised game show where contestants collect audience likes while fighting through 2D bullet-hell arenas.
Players dodge bullets, battle swarms of mutants, face bosses, and level up their contestant. Each run offers new challenges and a changing selection of mutations, including exploding bodies and big heads. Twitch integrations let viewers enter chat commands that trigger in-game events, with effects that may help the contestant or unleash more monsters. At the end of each room, traps and explosives begin falling, so players must escape before the studio self-destructs. Repeated attempts can unlock new weapons after death. The cast includes characters such as Eyeball and Zangbeef the Bear Wrestler.
