BRIAN IS HILARIOUS AND HAS OUR HUMOR IF YOU HAVENT YET GO CHECK OUT ELECTRIC LIBERTY LAND WHICH IS APART OF LIONS OF LIBERTY!Īs always Stay Frosty Mongooses. I enjoyed upgrading Chewella and eating my foes, but between the framerate, loose controls, and oversized maps, it’s hard to recommend Bite the Bullet.THE BEST JOKE IS AT THE END. Bite the Bullet is a great concept for a game, with mixed execution. Everything from the jump trajectory to the air dash just feels off, and it really tainted my experience. Between framerate issues and loose controls, the game just isn’t satisfying to play. The main problem I had when playing Bite the Bullet was with controlling Chewella. I especially struggled with the time trial objectives, as I found myself getting lost in the huge monotonous levels fairly frequently, even with a map. It’s fairly easy to consume the target calories, but finishing levels quickly or gunning down enemies in quick succession isn’t so simple. There’s no shame in being overweight though, and heftier characters are just as capable of reaching the goal as their chiselled counterparts.Įach stage in Bite the Bullet has a list of optional objectives to aim for. If you journey from fitness to fatness after eating a few buckets of mayo, Chewie and Chewella will visibly pile on the pounds. Your character won’t just play differently based on the food you eat. I really enjoyed customising my Chewella into the consuming machine that suited my play style. If you’re willing to avoid meat you can be a powerful vegetarian, or conversely maybe you’d prefer the life of a full-blown carnivore. The branching nodes of the skill tree leads you to abilities, upgrades, and even unique classes to play as. There is an issue with using your best guns, however, as their pure power will often ensure nothing remains for you to eat when the smoke clears.Īs long as you’ve been keeping your belly full, you’ll have plenty of DNA points to spend at the end of each level. From satisfying shotguns to devastating rocket launchers, the weapons may not be particularly unique but serve their purpose. As well as finding entirely new firearms, you’ll also find guns with incrementally better stats and abilities to loot. On your adventure you’ll loot an array of weapons from the enemy. If accidentally lower a foe’s health to zero there’s no food for you, which means you’ll need to be careful with your bullets (and this does unfortunately slow the pace of the game down). Each enemy rewards you with different amounts of health, calories, and DNA points to level up your hungry hungry hero. Practically every enemy you encounter can be eaten, if you lower their health low enough to stun them.
You’ll spend your time navigating stages, blasting freaks and eating matter.
Thanks to special implanted bionodes, our dining duo have the ability to eat any material, from mutant flesh to robotic bodies.Īt its core, Bite the Bullet is a run and gun shooter. Fortunately, they have just the tool for the job. In this bleak future, the inhabitants of Earth have become hideously mutated due to a lack of calories, and only Chewie and Chewella can clean up the mess. You play as either Chewie or Chewella, two members of DarwinCorp who have dedicated their lives to researching foods after an economic downturn left the world on the brink of collapse. It’s rare that you’ll need to worry about calories and protein when scoffing in a video game, but in Bite the Bullet every forkful counts. Be it a roast chicken to refill your health, or a home-cooked meal to provide your party with a buff, the power of food is well represented in gaming history. There has always been food in video games. I’ve never been a fussy eater, happily chowing down on anything in my path that doesn’t contain celery. As a larger gentleman, I’m no stranger to stuffing my face with all kinds of tasty delights.
