History VideoGame / Teleglitch

* NintendoHard

* NailEm: One of the computer logs mentions scientists in the weapons sector were frivolously experimenting with nailguns to make them sound funny when they shot nails. The player can also craft their own nailgun and nailammo to make a gun that's alright against unarmored enemies at close range, but is worse at long range due to a large spread and severe damage fall-off. They can also add tubes to upgrade the nailgun to nailgun2 through nailgun5, which shoot more nails at a time.

* LudicrousGibs: Any enemy killed from full health in a single shot (such as using one of the higher-damage rifles on a normal zombie, or firing several nails at point-blank range into a guard) will explode into little bits, instead of being knocked down to the floor.

* TeleporterAccident: As in "VideoGame/{{Doom}}" and "VideoGame/{{Quake}}", it's the reason for everything's going to hell before the game starts. The teleglitch is also responsible for the black blobs jutting out from the walls that will instantly kill anything that touches them. This is explained away as another side effect of the "teleporter glitch".

* AIIsACrapshoot : The Base AI is apparently a tiny bit unstable, and has brought back all of your ex-colleagues as killer zombies.
* BadassBookworm : The Player Character may be one of these, as he's explicitly the sole survivor of the events before the game, and is a scientist (which is presumably how he's so good at [[MacGyvering sticking items together to make improvised devices]]).

* MegaCorp : Militech, the amoral corporation that funded the teleportation and humanoid weapons technologies that go horribly wrong is one of these.

* ProceduralGeneration : How the game's levels are constructed, meaning that each time you play a given level, the map will be somewhat different. Some special features are always present, however.
* {{Retraux}} : The game's art style is deliberately lo-fi and pixellated (but, of course, is accomplished via modern GPU techniques).
* TeleporterAccident : As in "VideoGame/{{Doom}}" and "VideoGame/{{Quake}}", it's the reason for everything's going to hell before the game starts.
** In addition, some of the levels will contain a black blob jutting out from a wall that will instantly kill anything that it touches. This is explained away as another side effect of the "teleporter glitch".

* FinalDeath : Like all {{Roguelike}} inspired games, when you die, you die and go right back to the first level. Getting more than 50% through the game mitigates this a bit, though, allowing you to start a few levels in.
* GadgeteerGenius : The crafting system's more advanced options, including a teleporter, imply that the player character is one of these, considering the items are all improvised from junk you collect.
* ItemCrafting : Including the sticking explosives into empty cans (one of the first things you'll do) to make improvised grenades.

In the future, [[MegaCorp Mega Corporations]] have transcended governments, and control whole planets for their research. On the planet Medusa 1-C, military development corporation Militech has been conducting experiments in [[ArtificialZombie necrotic tissue reactivation]] and "[[KillerRobots nonhuman combatants]]", as well as a side-line in teleportation physics. Needless to say, this goes horribly wrong in all the ways you'd expect, and the player is the sole survivor. In order to escape, you now have to fight your way through 10 (randomly generated) zones of the base, while fighting off the suborned shells of your former colleagues, and the released experiments they were developing.
