[Warsaw, Poland].
The Warsaw-based (Poland) indie games publisher Retrovibe and Austin-based (Texas, the US) indie games developer Apptivus, are today very happy and excited to announce that their retro-like minimalistic arena shooter “Impaler Gold“, is now available for PC via Steam and GOG.
“Impaler Gold,” the most significant update yet to the fast-paced, minimalistic arena shooter, Impaler. This free update introduces new features and enhancements that will challenge and engage players like never before.
Since its release last year, Impaler has received ten substantial updates, adding new stages, enemies, weapons, upgrades, and other quality-of-life enhancements. Now, Impaler Gold brings a brand-new mode to the game completely free.
Introducing Collectathon: In this new mode, players must complete 16 time-based stages in the shortest time possible. Navigate an ever-changing battlefield, utilizing height to gain an edge over adversaries. This mode offers a fresh and exciting challenge for both new and returning players.
Impaler Gold is a movement-focused shooter where players shoot, impale, and stomp demons into red mist. By leveraging verticality and the hazardous environment, players are rewarded for skillful navigation and strategic play. The rogue-lite elements and dynamic arenas ensure each run is unique and replayable, providing endless hours of intense action.
Impaler Gold is out now on Steam and GOG. Players who already own Impaler will receive the update for free.
