RADIOACTIVE GAMER TIPS: -Yellow chests give ammo for the weapon type you're currently holding. Melee weapons give a random ammo type, and presents give extra ammo, but only to a weapon type you're not wielding. - Strong spirit is the best mutation in the game, it's ability to keep you going consistently is endlessly useful, especially since it reprocs on full HP - Every stage completed increases the "difficulty" which correlates to better weapons being possible to spawn. - Speaking of weapons, try skipping red chests! - Try spamming an explosive weapon in 2-1, I hear there's something radical down there...
A tip is that while some weapons are objectively better than others, dont worry about that. You can make it to the throne with pretty much any weapon as long as you get the appropriate mutations for that weapon type
If you wanna play 60 fps and make it wide screen (get rid of the side bars) without being in beta, you could get the nuclear throne together mod. The main purpose is online CO-OP but it also adds a command console that lets you tweak a ton of things.
Trigger fingers might look really useless but it's probably the benst mutation in the game and it's effect is very very noticeable. Tale it when you can because it's really fun too
YESSSS my favorite rougelike in history I would kill for a whole series Something’s if you do play this game for a series: Rads (the green things enemy’s drop) is the only way to get mutations they will attract to you but try and get them whenever you can The screwdriver has a secret unlock once you hit the wasteland look for a golden car and hit it with the screwdriver Fish can’t roll under bullets Crystal is the easiest character in the game
Decent progress for the first episode. You’ll do great. So no, you are not a psychopath for setting your goal to be to kill the throne. If you are quick enough you could even go for some b-skins.
Love this game and it's gotta be the hardest top-down shooter roguelike I've played. I've been trying to beat a specific boss since for over 4 years and I just did it a couple months ago
you should skip regular red chest to get big chest(+25% chance 4 every red chest skipped, chance reset after opening big chest but you can rasie this chance again)
Coming from someone who's play the hundred hours in the game there is no definitive strategy they all have good sides to them just find the one that's best for you for me that's Explosive Melee for you it to be anything. Edit: aside from the disc gun that weapon is just a joke weapon this bad.
Last wish is a reroll on top of the ammo and full heal when you take it the first level of the frozen wasteland will have a flower head that you can feed 4 hp to go to a different lvl and it will reroll the last wish into a new mutation choice
5:48 If i had a nickel for everytime someone has made that reference in a nuclear throne playthrough i would have 10 cents. Not a lot but its wierd that it happened twice right?
If I could only play video games from one country it would be Russia Tetris and nuclear throne lasts multiple lifetimes gungeon I beat even if they added dailys wouldn't play more but this game it just speaks to me
@@OlexaYT People like it, but I don't actually see it 'regarded' at all. As in, a lot of people just don't know it even exists. I'm not saying people hate it, I'm saying it never really sparked off as hugely popular beyond just existing in a time when games like it weren't a dime a dozen like today. And I'm saying this as a big fan of the game. Nobody I know, even people into roguelites, know what the fuck Nuclear Throne is. It's not Binding Of Isaac or Enter The Gungeon.
@@OlexaYT Like I asked a friend who is a big Roguelite genre fan to name the most highly regarded Roguelikes, and he said BoI, FTL, Slay The Spire, and Rogue Legacy. I had to remind him that Nuclear Throne existed. I also asked a friend who is Aware Of Them but not a fan because he sucks at him, and his imemdiate response was BoI, Rogue Legacy, EtG, Hades, Spelunky, FTLK, and Slay the Spire. Both of them only knew about Nuclear Throne existed because I told them about it since I liked it. The same names come up for both of them, and are what I meant by 'I don't think Nuclear Throne is regarded', as it was on neither of their radars despite having once been a real titan of the genre. Outside of the more hardcore Roguelite community, I'd be surprised if there was a huge amount of awareness that it even exists, which is what I was lamenting.
No offense I think your friends are living under a rock then. Nuclear throne is 100% in the same vein as those other games in terms of roguelike history and legacy
@@OlexaYT Neither of them live under a rock. And like, I agree with you that it's an important Roguelite! Just... not one that is universally well-known like the others. And I feel like it has a lot to do with how Vlambeer bungled it. Right before the big patch that was suppose to hit retail, it just kind of went silent for at least a year and they ended up having a fan release a mostly bug-fix patch for v99 and just going "there done!" and nothing else ever, which killed a lot of the game's momentum. Also, I did some more asking, just to make sure I didn't get the one Roguelite fanboy who lived under a rock, and the two others I've spoken to so far... well, out of everyone I asked, only one even had heard of Nuclear Throne before I ranted to them about it, and they didn't think very highly of it, instead repeating BoI, FTL, and Spelunky and outright saying that NT doesn't deserve the title. It's a crying shame.
Tyler no, melee is not considered good in this game lol It's good for the first 2 levels and them it's just sucks Also crossbows and other bolt weapons are the best and funnest weapons in the game. I love crossbows
The guitar, the guns, the sounds, the FLASHYNN... Forever a god tier game.

A little tip without spoilers: You might want to take a closer look at the cars in 3-1. The screwdriver may be less useless as it seems.
The crossbow master has logged on!
What a freakin classic game oh my god
The moment you picked up the disc gun my first thought was "can't wait until he dies because of it"
I love this game.
This game is pure pain but is still pretty fun, I'm happy to see you play it.
Yooo Nuclear Throne is amazing! Wish you luck!
hey there is a mod for the game called Nuclear Throne Together that adds 60fps and a widescreen feature which makes playing the game a bit better imo
Yes I know but the beta branch now has support for 60 fps so I figured that’s better
@@OlexaYT oh wow I never knew that, sounds sweet
my brother gifted me the nuclear throne ost on vinyl for christmas, and I can say it was hell of a nostalgia ride
That's awesome, I should pick it up since my mom just got a new record player.
A tip is that while some weapons are objectively better than others, dont worry about that. You can make it to the throne with pretty much any weapon as long as you get the appropriate mutations for that weapon type
you’ll figure out pretty quickly which ones are bad

Melee is really only good with stress, trigger fingers and long arms
This man is finally going to the oldies!
Trigger fingers might look really useless but it's probably the benst mutation in the game and it's effect is very very noticeable. Tale it when you can because it's really fun too
Agreed
best for high loops, but if you're going anywhere past l1 then its still very good
NUCLEAR THROOOOOONE! My favorite character is MELTING, I even got his alternate skin because I'm a glutton for punishment!
YESSSS my favorite rougelike in history I would kill for a whole series
Something’s if you do play this game for a series:
Rads (the green things enemy’s drop) is the only way to get mutations they will attract to you but try and get them whenever you can
The screwdriver has a secret unlock once you hit the wasteland look for a golden car and hit it with the screwdriver
Fish can’t roll under bullets
Crystal is the easiest character in the game
easiest, and the best
If you like melee, you're gonna love steroid dual melee
Love some Nuclear Throne content, especially a new and learning impression of the game. Looking forward to seeing you reach Throne!
10:55 "Okay, I'm mad." really sums up my entire memory of Nuclear Throne. GLHF!
FINALLY! Tyler this is my most anticipated series of 2022
That was definitely the moment to laser piss
Decent progress for the first episode. You’ll do great. So no, you are not a psychopath for setting your goal to be to kill the throne. If you are quick enough you could even go for some b-skins.
This is awesome! Hyped for this series
Melees in Nuclear Throne are quite smacky indeed.
Love this game and it's gotta be the hardest top-down shooter roguelike I've played. I've been trying to beat a specific boss since for over 4 years and I just did it a couple months ago
so happy to see this game come into the spotlight again. its been so long!
take the screwdriver and hit the car with the golden frame in the second zone
Now, this is epic
you should skip regular red chest to get big chest(+25% chance 4 every red chest skipped, chance reset after opening big chest but you can rasie this chance again)
its a bit of a rushed decision to quit isaac content and become a full time Nuclear Throne youtuber, but I respect it nonetheless
Who is your main and what is ypur favourite weapon? Mines YV and Electroc Hammer
I'm so sad that it's only gonna be a mini series
thinking the wrench is good and the screwdriver's bad after the very first run.
Good instincts. you love to see it
"I'm a big fan."
Is actually a human.

Yeah but the jungle is very hard and only really worth it to unlock a character
@@sucrow7659 jungle is definitely worth it if you need to reroll, just have to be good enough to survive
Mandatory engagement comment to say I love this series!
major alien hominid vibes also fun commentary
A friend of a friend introduced me to this game, and I fucking love it
Nuclear throne is super underated
OHHHHH MYYYY GOOOOODDDD I MISSED WATCHING THIS GAME
YV my beloved
Fish can roll
oh, soo old game, i love this game soo much but r.i.p. this game. I want NC 2 :D
Throne butt is a buff to your right click needed on some characters worthless on others it's in the middle for fish
Happy new year Tyler. Great episode
I really like this game esspiecally if you coment.That is relaxing
hello NT! exciting!
Hey olexa! try not hitting any enemies on floor 1 and just grab the mutated vial thinghy and all of the chests, hope your in for a surprise 👀
5:48 If i had a nickel for everytime someone has made that reference in a nuclear throne playthrough i would have 10 cents. Not a lot but its wierd that it happened twice right?
seeing all these NT fans still here is so cool
I like This!
hell yeah nuclear throne pog
Btw litterly never take open mind or sharp teeth also melee is sssssss+++++++++alpha Omega tier ultra shovel is how you get a 20 hour run
If I could only play video games from one country it would be Russia Tetris and nuclear throne lasts multiple lifetimes gungeon I beat even if they added dailys wouldn't play more but this game it just speaks to me
Strong spirit is melee tier it's not 1 use it recharges once per floor if you get back to max hp
Hi
northernlion?
:D
WHERE IS SLEEPCYLCES???
Too bad the devs screwed over this game by dropping it mid-development and calling it good. Coulda been something people really remembered.
It’s quite literally one of the most highly regarded roguelite games of all time lmao
@@OlexaYT People like it, but I don't actually see it 'regarded' at all. As in, a lot of people just don't know it even exists.

crystal seems more boring than the rest maybe you could do half the episode as crystal?

Idk i really liked melee even when unlocking the b skin for melting
This is EXTREMELY incorrect, melee weapons have always been considered high tier.
