TV TROPES ENTER THE GUNGEON UPDATE

And so it is that adventurers, known as Gungeoneers, flock to the Gungeon, seeking to right the wrongs of their pasts. Within the Gungeon, say these legends, lies a weapon of unimaginable power: a gun that can kill the past. This bullet formed the Gungeon, a sprawling, shape-shifting fortress protected by the Cult of the Gundead. There is a legend told throughout the galaxy: that many years ago, on the planet Gunymede, a massive bullet fell from space and embedded itself in the earth. Angry bullets turns the words into various insults: DORK, LOSER, TAFFER, CHUMP, and NOODLE.Enter the Gungeon is a Bullet Hell Run-and-Gun Roguelike developed by Dodge Roll Games and published by Devolver Digital.Explosive bullets make the bullets explode with the words BOOM, KABOOM, POW, and ROCKET.Charmed rounds make the words a guaranteed charm effect with the words CUTE, HANDSOME, and CHARM.Silver bullets turns every round silver with the words BLESSED, SILVER, and DIE, WEREWOLF, DIE.

Similar with the Omega bullets, which add an omega symbol at the end of the magazine.

Alpha bullets adds an alpha to the start of every burst, making the voice say 'A BULLET'.

(Marked as spoiler if you want to find them for yourself) Now it has a dozen synergies, and nearly all of them change what the bullets (and text) say.

Other than that, it wasn't much until the AG&D update came. It's a letter r and shoots out the word BULLET, accompanied by a monotone voice saying the same. Firing magically extends the beam, and attacking is best done by flailing an oversized wooden beam in the general direction of enemies. It's a beam, aka a laser, but it's literally a wooden beam, as in the thing you build stuff with. With enough skill, this can be the most overpowered gun in the game, and it's not even a real gun. Here is the fun part, it's attacks do 100 damage each, and knocks enemies back leading to chain reactions that do the same amount of damage. It's a baseball bat, nothing outstanding aesthetically, other than being a melee weapon in a place called the Gungeon.

In the realm of Lethal Joke Weapon, there is Casey.

At six reloads, it does about 90 damage В— enough to two or three shot even the toughest enemies.

However, this gun is not to be trifled with.

It also derides you if you mess up the timing. Eventually, the bullets themselves will be wearing miniature sunglasses. Better yet, all of these lines are read out by a stereotypically 'cool' voice. The central mechanic of the gun is manually reloading with proper timing to increase its damage, accompanied by ' NOICE', ' COOL', and ' RAD' in neon letters. First off, the gun is mounted to a tiny skateboard and is wearing a baseball cap.

Which like the vast majority of the bosses, also fits with the gun-pun theme: it's a war-glock.

only to be the most unsubtly gun-based creature in the Gungeon, being a hooded sorcerer with an entire Glock for a head.

It looks like the only relatively normal boss in the game for most of its on-screen appearance, even fairly menacing to boot.

Nothing about the High Priest as a concept is anything other than drop-dead hilarious.
