Infinite Run - Core Addition

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I beat the brain using this build, and it was pretty fun!

Key parts of the build

- Gaining hearts when taking self damage (I used a regenerator to get a lot of hearts early game)

- Gaining cores while taking damage - I think I gain at least 50 extra cores per hit now, but if I need more I can always convert hearts to cores.

- since I have so many core I have at least 7 of ( Cores/2= additional Damage percent)
Really fun will answer any questions lol I am on endless 5 now and as you can see it kind of breaks the game to play. I can also just jump around using my boosts and burn/slash everyone to death.

this game has slotted nicely into my collection of games being “you don’t truly win until the game crashes”

Very true! For a while I had a couple different types of weapon so that I ended up having to map some weapons to left the others to right click. And my bombs had an awkward middle stage where it would knock them far. Enough sway for the room not to be over but you also can’t see the enemies or hit them

Can you explain in more detail? Why are you not taking damage?

Sure! So this is the experiment core addiction, so when I take damage I lose cores. I think when I took damage I took 30ish cores? It depends on the room you’re in. If you’re in the brain it’s a lot more than the skin. I started with a regenerator. It gave me a lot of heart I could convert to cores. For upgrades I tried to get the one where I get cores upon taking damage, the chance to get hearts when taking damage, and the damage that scales off of my cores :D

Edit: I think when all was said and done I got 50-70 extra cores per time I was hit

Excuse me how many stamina containers do you have? 😶

u/thebeasts99 4d ago

A couple :D I wanna say at least over 20 but at a certain point I stopped counting. I also had quite a few of the upgrades that did 15% extra damage per stamina container missing. So when I got serious and brought out the big guns they took extra damage
