Had to check if my headset was broken because the audio was only playing in one ear. Found out it was the game, not my headset. Cannot ALT-TAB out of the game because it locks your mouse into a small region on your desktop, annoying much? Loaded the game later on only to get an Error! Failed to load sky2-0.png. Really? I can't play the game now because of an image file error? Idled the error screen for cards, because...

The Good Clay models and basic animation is nice. Sound seemed reasonable. I played with Easy difficulty and found it was the closest match between issues with controls and game play performance. The Bad Controls are a little quirkly/jittery for my liking. Game can't make up it's mind what type it is, as each world type (akin to Super Mario Bros.) has a level of each in order being a 2D scrolling shooter, rocket...

The good: The unqiue *clay* ghraphics. The bad: this game is completly unstable. Even worse than Platypus 2. Get Platypus instead.

The sound is only coming out of ONE speaker? I can't minimize the game to do something else on my computer without losing control of the mouse? It would be different if the game were decent in any way. It's not. It seems like someone made this as some sort of learning experiment. Pass on this.

Ater all negative reviews I've seen, "Nux" comes off as a pleasant surprise. Presentation is pretty unique with all plasticine stuff and quirky humour. The game itself is very old-school in a good way. Each planet (which represents a level) has 3 stages: typical vertical scroller shootem'up, landing on a planet, and a basic platformer mission on the surface, when you have to retrieve 3 diamonds and get them to your...

First of all, just like Platypus 2, all sound in Nux comes out of only the right speaker/headphone. I ended up turning my headphones up to max volume and placing them in front of the keyboard. Now why did I play this for the hour it took to beat? I dunno. There are three games in here - a vertical sh'mup, a sidescrolling platformer, and a "lander". None of the three are very good. Lander feels best, and looks the...

Another Shoot 'Em Up game called 'Nux'. I like the 'clay' graphics but other then that the game is really unstable. There are graphical glitches and sound only comes from the right speaker. Could've been a nice shooter, get "platypus" instead.

I wanted to drop cards and during the dropping time to give this game a chance. But the game didn't want me to do it. After seeing a company logo it welcomed me with a broken menu flashing alternately with leaderboards. Since it was ablolutely unplayable I gave up and alt-tabbed it. Irrationaly, even minimized, the game couldn't just let the cards drop peacefully and broke my mouse movements making doing anything...

Best what this game offers is Steam cards. But even if you want to run it in background, you'll probably lose control of your mouse. The rest of it is even worse. VERDICT: Run it only if you like to suffer. Like this review?

From the moment I was gifted this game by a friend, I knew I was in for a wild ride. Opening up the game and seeing that title screen was an experience I wish I could recreate. I'll break it down for you. First off, the graphics. My god, the graphics. The claymation models in game were truly a sight to behold. No other game quite looks like Nux, and that sure is an accurate, non-hyperbolic statement. It truly is...
