About Kill The Nova
"Kill The Nova" is a brand-new experience where classic puzzle meets roguelike deckbuilder. Craft insane synergies to generate "impossible numbers," and plunge the developer, "Nova," into the depths of despair! ■ The Dopamine-Pumping Power of Multipliers Combine over 150 different "SP" (Special Pieces) to craft the ultimate synergy. Meet the puzzle conditions to break blocks, and inflate your multipliers to astronomical levels. It’s all about the multipliers. Hit overwhelming numbers and make the developer beg for mercy (*Note: there is no actual animation of him begging :> ). Highly addictive Puzzle × Deckbuilding Over 150 stackable SPs with limitless potential Break through and transcend the 7 challenging "Ranks" ■ Control Everything in the Game Choose your path from 10 randomly generated frames. A boss battle awaits at the end of each level. You decide which "Prime Cell" (boss) you want to fight—survive their attacks, and overcome them. During the "Rebuild" phase after battles, you can modify the pieces in your hand to reach even greater heights. Over 20 diverse "Prime Cell" bosses to challenge A Rebuild system that lets you customize your pieces exactly how you want * Use powerful items to gain the upper hand (Yes, you can actually win) ■ Destroy "Nova", the Enemy of Your Dopamine The final boss of each run is none other than the developer, "Nova." Take the ultimate "numbers" you've built and smash them right into his face. He’s definitely going to hate it. But beware... it seems you aren't the only one who can place pieces on the board... Nova's interference patterns grow increasingly vicious with each Rank Your opponent is "100% the real me" (The Developer) ■ Other Features Charming, retro low-res pixel art An original soundtrack that pumps up the gameplay A glorious, mind-melting victory sound that hits you right in the brain
