About Intravenous

About this game

Developed and published by Explosive Squat Games.

Take control of Steve Robbins, a man that sets out on a quest for vengeance after his brother dies tragically to low-life junkies. Armed to the teeth and ready to spray & pray, get vengeance either by storming the areas or using stealth!

Sneak in the Shadows

Experience old-school stealth as you'll need to take advantage of the environment as well as be careful about the amount of noise that you're making — conceal yourself in the darkness and be careful, as every step you take makes a sound.

High-octane Combat

Stealth should not be in place of enjoyable gunplay, and Intravenous takes this to a whole new level! If you've been caught whilst trying to sneak up on the correct targets, then engage in hardcore, fast-paced shooting against your enemies! Or, if you prefer going in guns blazing, nothing is stopping you from shooting down enemies from the front door!

Intelligent AI

Experience intelligent AI that will try to manoeuvre each situation dynamically. If they find a body, they'll sound the alarm (and then you'll have Hell to raze); if they hear you sneaking, they will investigate the shows in search of you; if they catch you, they will open fire and try to exterminate you as quickly as possible; and if they are unarmed, they will alarm their allies and try to take you down!

More Than A Shoot-'em'up

Be wary of the AI, as they will try to succeed at any cost — watch as the Intravenous AI take cover, use flashlights in the dark, and even radio each other about suspicious activity to inform their allies better!

Pick Your Poison

Take control of numerous weapons and pick your poison as you raid facilities and bring down the bad guys — with unique recoil and handling, you'll be able to choose the right weapon for the right occasion!

A Set For Every Level

Make sure you take the right loadout for every quest — whether you go armed to the teeth with a bullet-proof vest, a rifle, and a handgun, or go equipped with only a handgun for agility and better stealth opportunities, you'll need to adapt when a mission goes awry!

Dynamically Adapt

Use the surroundings to help you on your quest. Shoot the lights out, take advantage of cleverly-placed vents, use the circuit breakers to kill all the lights, throw bottles to create a noise distraction, and even use lockpicks to bypass security doors!... or go in guns blazing and ignore everything before — enjoy Intravenous the way you want to.

A Heart-breaking Story

After the police turn up empty-handed about the murder of his brother, Steve Robbins decides to take matters into his own hands. Allied with a mysterious person that gave him a call — and allegedly suffered the same fate — you'll need to raid those that killed your brother and avenge him at all costs.

Easily one of the best stealth games in the past few years, with so many different ways to interact with each level. The story is admittedly shallow, but it makes up for that in raw gameplay strength. This is the closest to a new Punisher game we're going to get, I feel, by way of Splinter Cell meets Hotline Miami. It can be a total ache to get through the levels on higher difficulties, but it's worth the struggle. Highly recommended.

A fun stealth game in the same vein of stuff like Metal Gear Solid. Mediocre writing. Fun gameplay.

Stealth games are always a tricky bag to find difficulty on. In most cases I find the developers either cater to making it TOO easy or TOO hard. Intravenous finds a good sweet spot. The gameplay feels like if you took the older metal gear games in all their old school pixel art and gave them a bit of a modern-touch up. It's a game of "Revenge" your brother is killed, and you want to make the people responsible "pay" You can play the game in a few ways, but have to be careful with how the AI works. They respond and adapt to you in a variety of ways, simply seeing a door open or a light that had been turned off will attract their attention, if they think theres trouble, they'll call for their friends to help investigate, and if they hear a gun shot (From you or one of their own( they of course will also come check it out. You aren't some super-hero, and while you could probably get away with careful murder rambo style, it's much more effective to play it safe an quiet. The level design are large open stages, with many ways to get around and reach your goals. The game has plenty of variety in terms of tactics and weapons, and even has a system setup for making your own levels and scenarios. The only con I can really label is the story. The writing isn't "BAD" per say. But it isn't "GOOD" either. It's good enough for the type of game it is, just don't expect much depth from it.

Really enjoyed this one. There's not just one way to go through the levels. It's as hard as you want it to be, really. Definitely worth the asking price.

Nice bundle

Usually bundles have 1-2 solid choice with a bunch of filler. This felt like there were some actual good choices. I grabbed something from my wishlist and several other titles that I didn’t know I wanted!

Product not available in my country? In the EU? Is this because it's free? Then I will give you a review grade in return, also for free:D
