It really helps to engage the player with the story and also shows that the development team have put that bit of extra effort in to make their game special.Ĭaptain Toonhead as a character is very relatable also. The voice acting itself is very enthusiastic and at times actually very funny. A nod to the great voice actingĬaptain Toonhead also has some great story, characters and voice acting. Unfortunately the only weapon that the player is able to use is a dual laser pistol set up and although they can be upgraded it would be nice to have different weapon types. One place where I wish there was more variety is with the player held weapons. In a rinsed out genre such as tower defence, variety like this is so important as it gives the player something refreshing to sink their teeth into and brings new life into the genre as a whole. Using this variety of turrets players must use their tactical skills in order to defeat increasingly difficult waves of enemies. All of these turrets can be upgraded and levelled up, increasing their stats.
Other turrets Include a slow down turret which freezes enemies in place. There is a standard rocket turret which deals a decent amount of damage and doesn’t cost a lot of scrap to build, there’s a bomb turret which acts almost like a trebuchet, unsurprisingly it’s slower but deals a tonne of damage. In terms of turrets there are a wide variety with some familiar types that appear in a lot of tower defence games. There are some crazy enemy types that clearly took a lot of imagination such as the aerial kitten, the cyber chickens and the sharks running on tank tracks just to name a few. Great variety… for the most partĭuring the few hours of the game that I was able to play I was met with so much variety in terms of character design and turret design.
#Space punks update upgrade
Yes saving these guys is very important as it’s their job to upgrade your turrets and weapons which is essential as you progress through the game. Upon defeating enemies, they will drop scrap which you can collect by throwing your mjolnjrs at them, you can then use them to build or upgrade your turrets.Īt the end of each round you are given a score and told how many of your enercubes you were able to save.
Each view has their benefits, top down can be used for placing and upgrading turrets and the on the ground view can be used to feel like part of the action as you blast chickens with your dual laser pistols.Īfter all of this the aim of the game is to defeat waves of enemies, all with different abilities and stop them from reaching your escape ship and getting to your adorable little cube friends called Enercubes. Not only do players get a recognisable top down view of the battlefield but also a first person on the ground view that really makes you feel part of the action. Unlike the typical tower defence games that we’ve gotten used to over the years, Captain Toonhead does a fantastic job of making the gameplay new and refreshing while catering perfectly for VR players. I mean where else would find a tank shark or a cyber chicken. It makes the game feel so refreshing and sometimes its downright funny. It takes everything you can think of from a typical tower defense game and cranks all the dials to the max, especially when it comes to crazy!Ĭaptain Toonhead has some of the craziest level and character designs which I absolutely love. Have you ever wanted to play a VR game where you can fire piggy piñatas at cyber chickens or shoot down aerial kittens before they drop bombs on you? Well you’ve come to the right place! You can do all of that and so much more during your time playing Captain Toonhead.Īt its core Captain Toonhead is a tower defence game… on steroids. Most of you are probably thinking the same thing as me before I played this game for the first time, what on earth (technically not on earth) is Captain Toonhead? I’m very glad you’ve asked! What on earth (or space) is Captain Toonhead?
