Survivors but fast. Unrelaxing Quacks is not a waiting simulator, it's a fast paced game where you're thrown into the action from the first few seconds. If you kill enemies fast they will spawn faster. Once you get past the tutorial and holy duck and play on real difficulty with corruption enabled, every levelup makes the game more difficult. Every weapon and upgrade you choose scales things further, allowing builds that level up fast to keep the game difficult.
Play as one of the 14 different characters, but beware, most of them only get one life, and once they die you will have to recover their body to play them again.

Multiple game modes allow you to further customize the experience, from faster mode that only lasts 2 minutes, a noob mode for those truly bad at the game, or a corruption mode that increases corruption levels at maximum from the first second of the game.

- Dynamically increasing difficulty.
- Corruption system for extra difficult gameplay in lategame.
- Noob and holy mode for beginners and noobs.
- 14 playable and unique characters
- 16 enemy types
- 33 weapons
- 6 unique game modes which you can mix and match to alter the experience
- Large map with different zones, landmarks, teleports and shops
Survive until the timer runs out and escape through the gate to win the game. Every enemy you kill drops experience, with more experience you level up and unlock new weapons and upgrades. During gameplay, you unlock new characters, game modes and achievements, which stays permanently unlocked. There is no other meta progression influencing the game itself, so you better learn the game and the map, and enjoy a true roguelike experience.
