Characters

are the living entities that populate the game world including players and NPCs. Playable characters, as the name implies, are characters that players can play as and are chosen at the beginning of the game. Some characters must be unlocked before they can be chosen. NPCs stands for "non-player characters". These characters refer to the various AIs seen on every level in-game and are not directly controlled by the player.

Tips and Strategies

 * Players looking to experiment or wanting a challenge can play Daily Run, which presents a custom run with a different character each day.


 * Another great way to experiment is with Mutators, particularly ones such as Continue?, Infinite Ammo, Low Health For All, Disasters Every Level, and so forth.
