[@UmbralKitten]

Honestly hadn't heard of vampire survivors before but i've been playing this game daily for months. I enjoy it quite a bit and they've been adding more amd more to the game recently. It gets harder in later levels. Edit: CD stands for cooldown so you attack more often. You also don't have to spend any money as long as you're patient enough. Money's more of just a shortcut. I haven't spent much of anything on the game

[@lookatjayzjewelz]

A small tip to help you understand evo's a little bit more. If you see the word "Evo" and a upgrade next to it under a ability, you need to get that upgrade and get the ability to max level, then they will make a weapon that will be available to get when you level up. It makes a pink star weapon, (the best weapon tier I think) Also CD stands for CoolDown. And also a yellow item is a ability and green is an upgrade. (at least thats what I call them.) And one final thing, when you get both drones, that is an evo.

[@gdmathguy]

Wow that's like, completely fokin copied from vamp survivors. Literally. Those drones are the two birds in the actual good game

[@grol2129]

Heyyyy he’s finally playing it!!! The best combo for this game is the kunai, the Molotov, the forcefield, and the guardian with all of their evolutions. How you can tell for the evolutions is when you’re upgrading you look down on one of the green borders for the evolution. You can only get the evolution if you have the tool (yellow border) and the upgrade (green border) corresponding to the tool. If this is confusing I’m sorry. And if you couldn’t tell I play this game a lot

[@Agent00rion]

I think the best combo is force field gardien molotov shotgun and boomerangs

[@Alekcsx]

Neither of these are great the one i use is drone, beick, lightning, soccer ball, kunai, and drill shot

The Molotovs with more effect time and less cd is my favorite weapon.

[@Alekcsx]

@@NotAMoron42 yeah very fun to use because you can burn the entire screen

[@gloomy_glamour]

Ok I've been playing this game for a while whenever I'm bored because it's easy to take breaks, and you have to fully upgrade the weapon before the ability/stat booster. So as an example you have to upgrade the soccer ball before you even should buy the other thing. Also I would try to avoid filling up all of your stat booster slots before you get the weapons you want. Also one last thing, you need to get both of the robots to get the destroyer and you don't need any stat booster

[@dolphin_yee]

I feel like these type of games are there own genre now

[@TheCommentNinja81]

I agree. And Vampire Survivor is just a Robotron 2084 "clone" with the modern upgrades system. Robotron is decadeSSS old. People like to use CLONE too much when they talk about games. I did not play Vampire Survivor as I only play free games on my tablet, but I'm really enjoying this one!

[@revimfadli4666]

​@@TheCommentNinja81 wait Robotron plays exactly like VS? Aren't there civilians you have to protect? Why are the game footage hard to find?

[@TheCommentNinja81]

@@revimfadli4666 No no. Non exactly because there's no powerup if I recall well. There'a some people to save for extra points for extra lives. Also the levels are short and limited. You survive the waves and that's it. It not cumulate for minutes, but still the principle is the same as you can shoot in all directions as you are attacked from all sides by swarm of ennemis. There's also Spook'o'tron on the NES which is a homebrew inspired by Robotron. These are twin-stick shooters. On the NES game you play with 2 controllers. One of the directional pad is for moving around and the other one is for shooting so you can move in a direction and shoot in another. With all the modern updates and upgrades, it's really a genre that I affectionate on Mobile a game or 2 at the time.

[@chris_me_llaman]

You should try out Magic Survival and 20 Minutes till Dawn. Magic Survival came out before Vampire Survivors and it might even be the first game of this genre if I'm not mistaken.

[@CubeRob558]

I was not expecting this

[@zanderjames3766]

Okay so beat Red Death you have to get the yellow sign on one of the bonus tages, once you do that you then have to evolve the shield spinach while collect memento left and right and level all three up to max then Evo them into the Red Shroud so Red Death doesn't one shot you. He has a crap ton of health so I suggest having Blade Storm as a main weapon and a max level leaf. The shroud caps all damage to 10 as well as give you a bunch of barriers that deal revenge damage so I'd also say get the Armour to max level for more but it's not needed. So to recap, unlock the yellow sign, max out the mementos left right and the lauriel then Evo it to the Red Shroud, and beat Death. Side note this also unlocks the time stop Evo with the gold and silver rings and all four are guarded by a spirit with about 30k hp. They can be stoped with a lantern time clock and drop golden eggs when beaten. Surviving Death has a special reward. Good luck hunter Mike, may the whip be with you

[@killersoul2117]

Trust me there are WAY more copies of vampire survivors but this is the most popular one.

I just recently got to level two and I installed the game like 5 months ago. Not trying to sound like the ads for survivor io but it is really difficult.

This is how EVO's work: First: Get the item you want at five stars Second: get the green skill that has EVO and the weapon you want under it. Third: If you have the weapon at five stars and the skill to EVO it, then chests will guarantee that you get the EVO for it For the drones: First: 5 star type A drone Second: 5 star type B drone Third: Chest will give you the DESTROYER EVO You dont have to get EVO's from chests, you can get them from levelling up normally. Once you get to a high enough Chapter, you can unlock the Modular Mine. Modular Mine EVO: First: 5 star modular mine Second: 5 star Molotov OR the Lightning Emitter Third: If you 5 star the Molotov, you can unlock the Inferno Bomb Forth: If you 5 star the Lightning Emitter, you can unlock the Electric Bomb (I forgot its name) You have to have both the Modular Mine and the Molotov Or Lightning Emitter 5 starred to be able to EVO it.

The forcefield is a very Good weapon and you Need the Energy Drink to evolve it. You Can also evolve your Main weapon (like a kunai or a bat) and a very Good Main weapon is the shotgun.
