History VideoGame / ImmortalRedneck

* EgyptianMythology: [[Characters/EgyptianMythology Several gods and goddesses appear.]] Their "favor" can be purchased from the SkillTree, which then gives you alternate starting load-out options.

* AmplifierArtifact: Several Scrolls enhance your stats or weapons. Some Medallions also do this.

** [[TheSmartGuy Thoth, God of Wisdom:]] Lets you FlashStep and grants [[DoubleJump an extra jump.]] He reduces your defense to the same degree as Seth but also raises your movement speed.

* LimitedLoadout: You are normally limited to three weapons out of fifty plus in the game... unless you choose Apis as your god. Then you can carry four. The "Heavy Duty" Scroll will also let you carry an additional gun.

* ThePhoenix: Appears in the form of both a a weapon that fires a swarm of seeking projectiles, and a scroll that gives any weapons fire a chance to spawn one. The Redneck knows enough about the myth to make [[PostMortemOneLiner a crack about enemies not coming back from being hit by one.]]

* PowerUpFood: The Redneck can eat steaks to restore his health. Unusually, they look a bit like they were cut from a reptile.

** The Explosive Bow is the [[GearsOfWar Torque Bow]] in all but name.

* ShortRangeShotgun: The double-shotgun you begin the game with has a notably wide spread and inflicts minimal damage beyond point-blank range.
* SniperPistol: The pistols tend to be extremely accurate.

** Hathor gives you

* AncientEgypt: The aesthetic, though its [[TheTimeOfMyths a fancier, magical take.]] The Pyramids are each a TempleOfDoom, are guarded by [[NonHumanHead Non-Human-Headed]] monsters with powers, and [[AncientArtifact Ancient Artifacts]] are everywhere. [[AnachronismStew Also, there are guns.]] [[MoreDakka A lot of them.]]

**[[TheBigGuy Apis]] allows you to [[InvincibilityPowerup temporarily become invulnerable]] and carry four guns, but limits you to at most a single jump and lower movement speed.
** [[GlassCannon Seth]] lets you emit [[ShockAndAwe a damaging lightning]] [[AreaOfEffect field]] and [[CounterAttack damage enemies that hit you.]] He increases your base damage and reduces your defense and health. At low upgrade levels, using Seth will push your defense [[OhCrap into the negatives.]]
**[[TheMedic Sekhmet]] allows you to turn [[EquivalentExchange every visible item into a]] [[PowerUpFood health steak]] and gain additional maximum health from each new room entered, but reduces your base damage.
** [[{{Ninja}} Amunet]]: Lets you drop a distracting NinjaLog and sprint backwards.
** [[LongRangeFighter Neith]]: Lets you [[AttackAnimal summon a falcon to attack enemies]] and get increased damage at long range.
** [[LifeDrain Ammit]]: Lets you [[CastFromHitPoints sacrifice maximum health]] to increase health recovered, and [[LifeDrain get health from kills]]- but not from steaks, as with the "{{Dracula}}" Scroll.
** Hathor
** [[TheSneakyGuy Thoth:]] Lets you FlashStep and grants [[DoubleJump an extra jump.]]

* CriticalHit: You have a chance to inflict these with any regular shot. Your base chance to crit as well as the damage bonus can both be upgraded, and certain Scrolls affect it: The "Lucky Shot" Scroll in particular ''doubles'' it.

* MagicMissile: Some of the weapons fire these, such as the Energy Gloves, Ankh and ThePhoenix. [[EmergencyWeapon Notably, the Gloves and Ankh do not consume any ammo when fired but deal much less damage as a tradeoff.]]

* MoreDakka: The Redneck starts with an active ability that boosts his fire-rate, as well passively finding more ammo.

* PoisonMushroom: Some scrolls have negative effects. The "Itchy Trigger Finger" scroll, for example, makes each shot cost 2 ammo. There is a scroll that removes all the negative scrolls you have as a one-time effect.

* ProceduralGeneration: Levels, enemy group composition and loot are randomized.

* ShoutOut: The rocket launcher looks very much like the one from [[VideoGame/QuakeIIIArena Quake 3]].

** Hathor gives you the

** [[TheSneakyGuy Thoth:]] Lets you FlashStep and grants [[DoubleJump an extra jump.]]

* CharacterClassSystem: Unlocking the favor of the various gods gives you choices of starting active and passive abilities, and weapon loadouts. You're always playing the redneck, however.

**[[TheBigGuy Apis]] allows you to [[InvincibilityPowerup temporarily become invulnerable]] and carry four guns, but limits you to at most a single jump.

** [[ShockAndAwe Seth]] lets you shoot ball-lightning and [[CounterAttack damage enemies that hit you.]]

* AKA47: [[AvertedTrope Averted]] in the case of the actual AK and the Uzi- although they're cartoonish versions that are missing several otherwise critical parts.

* MagicMissile: Some of the weapons fire these, such as the Energy Gloves and the Ankh. [[EmergencyWeapon Notably, they do not consume any ammo when fired but deal much less damage as a tradeoff.]]

* MoneySpider: Any enemy may yield gold, ammo, steaks or, rarely, scrolls.

* RewardingVandalism: Oddly, this is normally [[AvertedTrope averted.]] However, acquiring a certain Scroll enables this, allowing pots to occasionally yield gold, ammo or health.

* UpgradeArtifact: Present in the form of ancient Scrolls which provide a perk when picked up for the rest of that run, similarly to the upgrade items found in other [[RogueLike Rogue-ish games]]. [[PowerupLetdown A few of them are negative however.]]

* ClusterFBomb: Rather unusually for a RogueLike, the Redneck is not only talkative, but very foul-mouthed.

* Eagleland: The Redneck exhibits signs of Type 2, specifically DeepSouth. He'll occasionally exclaim he's from Kansas, [[ShoutOut hence the page quote.]]

* NerfArm: You can find a Potato Gun.

** [[ShockAndAwe Seth]] lets you shoot ball-lightning and [[{{Thorns}} damage enemies that hit you.]]

**[[CatFolk Sekhmet]] allows you to turn [[EquivalentExchange every visible item into a]] [[PowerUpFood health steak]] and gain additional maximum health from each new room entered.
** [[PowerOfTheStorm Seth]] lets you shoot ball-lightning.

* LifeDrain: The {{Dracula}} cCroll allows you to recover health for each kill, [[IDoNotDrinkWine but makes it so steaks no longer heal you.]]

* LifeDrain: The {{Dracula}} SCroll allows you to recover health for each kill, [[IDoNotDrinkWine but makes it so steaks no longer heal you.]]
* LimtedLoadout: You are normally limited to three weapons out of fifty plus in the game... unless you choose Apis as your god. Then you can carry four. A certain Scroll will also let you carry an additional gun.

* WeaponOfChoice: The Redneck has his own: the basic Pistol, the Shotgun, and Dynamite. Choosing one of the gods' favor gives you a different set of starting weapons.

* CriticalHit: You have a chance to inflict these with any regular shot. Your chance to crit as well as the damage bonus can both be upgraded.

* LifeDrain: One of the scrolls allows you to recover health for each kill, [[IDoNotDrinkWine but makes it so steaks no longer heal you.]]

What happens when a redneck goes go-karting in Egypt and runs afoul of some cursed ruins? Why, he gets [[{{Mummy}} mummified]], [[TimeTravel.thrown back in time, and [[ExcusePlot forced to negotiate a]] [[ProceduralGeneration Procedurally Generated]] pyramid, of course!

* AncientEgypt: The aesthetic, though its a fancier, magical take.
* AKA47: [[AvertedTrope Averted]] in the case of the actual AK47 and the Uzi- although they're cartoonish versions that are missing several otherwise critical parts.
* BuildLikeAnEgyptian: But of course. All three major pyramids of Giza are present and accounted for.

* DeepSouth: The Redneck, obviously. He'll occasionally exclaim he's from Kansas, [[ShoutOut hence the page quote.]]
* DoubleJump: Possible if you find the right scroll, and finding more of them can get you at least a quad-jump. You can purchase an upgrade that enables this for every run- except if you've chosen Apis.
* EgyptianMythology: Several gods and goddesses are namedropped. Their "favor" can be purchased from the SkillTree, which then gives you alternate starting load-out options.

* FourFingeredHands: Suy the merchant has these.

* TheUnintelligible: Suy, the friendly merchant. It's easy enough to tell what they mean, however, as they're very animated.

* YouHaveResearchedBreathing: Most [[FirstPersonShooter FPSes]] let you interupt a reload by switching to another weapon. Not this one- you need the "Not Now" scroll first.

* [[ChoiceOfTwoWeapons Choice Of Three Weapons]]: You are limited to just three guns at any one time out of the fifty plus in the game... unless you choose Apis as your god. Then you can carry four.

* AncientEgypt: This is the aesthetic, but not the time-frame.

* TheUnintelligible: Suy, the friendly merchant. It's easy enough to tell what they mean, however, as they're very animated.
* UpgradeArtifact: Present in the form of ancient Scrolls which provide a perk when picked up for the rest of that run, similarly to the upgrade items found in other [[RogueLike Rogue-ish games]]. [[PowerupLetdown A few of them are negative however.]]

* DoubleJump: Possible if you find the right scroll. You can purchase an upgrade that enables this for every run- except if you've chosen Apis.

* FinalDeath: As per standard, dying once ends your run- but you keep your gold. However, any gold you don't spend on upgrades is lost when you reenter the pyramid, taken as "tribute to the gods."

* GrenadeLauncher: A possible weapon. You can begin with one if you choose Apis.

* VisualPun: The game's SkillTree is represented by an ''actual tree!'' It grows upward and outward as you purchase new types of upgrades.

* DeepSouth: Obviously where our hero hails from. He's a long way from home.

* GatlingGood: You can find a minigun, or start with one if you choose Apis.

* RevolversAreJustBetter: [[ZigZaggedTrope Zig-zagged.]] While the Rusty Revolver does considerably more damage then the basic pistol, it is also far less accurate.

* CameBackStrong: It's sort of implied that the Redneck can't actually be killed, especially considering he's already dead. And, if the player is diligent about purchasing upgrades, every time he does, ''[[UpToEleven he comes back stronger.]]''

* ClusterFBomb: Rather unusually for a RogueLike, the Redneck is not only talkative, but rather foul-mouthed.
* CriticalHit: You have a chance to inflict these. Your chance to crit as well as the damage bonus can both be upgraded.

* EgyptianMythology: Several gods and goddesses are namedropped. Their "favor" can be purchased like a skill, which then gives you alternate starting load-out options.

* FinalDeath: As per standard, dying once ends your run- but you keep your gold.

* UpgradeArtifact: Enemies and chests will occasionally yield ancient Scrolls which provide a perk when picked up for the rest of that run, similarly to the upgrade items found in other [[RogueLike Rogue-ish games]]. [[PowerupLetdown A few of them are negative however.]]

* UniversalAmmunition: Blue ammo box items replenish all your currently equipped weapons.

* SchizoTech: Some of the guns are made to look like they're [[AncientEgypt ancient Egyptian artifacts]]... [[CaptainObvious except they're guns.]]

* StandardFPSGuns: All accounted for, with many permutations thereof. There are also some more unusual guns.

**Apis allows you to [[InvincibilityPowerup temporarily become invulnerable]] and carry four guns, but limits you to at most a single jump.
**Sekhmet allows you to turn every visible item into a health steak and gain additional maximum health from each new room entered.

* {{Expy}}: The swarming yellow cobra enemies behave very similarly to the animated carrots from [[VideoGame/{{Ziggurat}} Ziggurat]].
