MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game)	comment	MADNESS: Project Nexus (often abbreviated to MPN or simply PN2, formerly known as Project Nexus 2 before a rebranding) is a game developed by Matt "Krinkels" Jolly and Michael Swain of Newgrounds fame and serving as a sequel to the original Madness: Project Nexus. It is a game set in the Madness Combat universe as a 3D Shoot 'Em Up / Hack and Slash hybrid resembling an arena-type arcade game (such as Smash TV or Final Fight, as described by Swain). The game released on September 29th 2021, and includes a "Story Campaign" mode, "Arena Combat" and "Interactive Mode" (later renamed the Playground) (the latter is essentially a sandbox for messing around with enemies and weapons).Staying true to its Madness Combat roots, PN is a title filled with the expected dose of "ultraviolence" and functions as a Murder Simulator in regards to gameplay. Many "real" and improvised weapons are included in the game, mostly featuring guns and melee weapons alike.Warning: all spoilers for the first game will be unmarked!

Downplayed however, in that it's roughly on par with the equally effective Fantasy Sword, and overshadowed by Jesus's signature weapon, the Binary Sword, although the latter is much larger and harder to wield.

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_13dcb20b	comment	Antepiece: The first Arena Mode mission turns death into a slap on the wrist, allowing you to die, skip waves and experience the basics without any danger. Pilot Episode shows the player how Corpus Blocks work; at one point, the player gets onto an elevator platform, to which a swarm of enemies show up and blast them relentlessly; this is very likely to break a Corpus, but after a wave of enemies, the player will be able to heal the missing Corpus with a first-aid cabinet.

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_1daa7fce	type	In the Back
MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_1daa7fce	comment	A new update to this mechanic is the "Directional TAC-Bar", which makes it a bit harder to maintain. The TAC-Bar only protects the character in a ~180 degree arc in front of where they're aiming, meaning anyone can still get gunned down from behind if they're not expecting incoming fire. Unfortunately though, computer controlled enemies will usually see this coming and adjust their TAC-Bar at the last second to dodge incoming fire anyways. One way to prevent this is by having a squad member distract them so that you can reliably shoot them in the back.

Two stats: -10% Vs. Dizzy and -2 Encumbrance. Nothing flashy, but those two extra points open up room for armor- especially important if your character has low Endurance. Handguns. Not nearly as cool as heavy rifles or shotguns, but they’re light, fairly cheap, don’t have any major weaknesses, and easy to get extra magazines for early on. The Headband and Ghi. They don't offer much armor, but both offer a boost towards punching speed, benefiting an Unarmed playstyle.

The game warns that despite being trapped, it's only a matter of time until someone else finds the shrine and accidentally frees the robotic monster again.

Since the game has been confirmed to be canon to the main series, it's only a matter of time before the Savior turns his back on the Employers.

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_525df529	comment	Not Using the "Z" Word: Zombies in-game are simply referred to as "zeds". note The label of "zeds" given to zombies is actually part of an oddly consistent naming convention for enemies: "Zed" is how many non-American countries pronounce the letter "Z" (an abbreviation for "Zombie" in this case), which Americans pronounce as "Zee". Similarly, the AAHW's ATP Soldats and Nexus Soldats use the word "soldat" (pronounced "Zoldat") in place of the American term "soldier" — which is also the noun for "soldier" in many non-American countries. This makes this trope arguably justifiable. However, the setting for the main Madness Combat series is simply "Somewhere in Nevada", which is an American location, but in Project Nexus Nevada refers to the whole world..

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_7464705c	comment	Arc Words: "It's like two soda cans", used by both Krinkels and characters in-story to describe and theorize about the relationship between Nevada and the Other Place. As in, they are two separate but identical containers, and shaking them up makes things very messy when you try to open them up. The opening phrase "Somewhere in Nevada..." is given new meaning by two major revelations in Arena mode, one for comedy, one less so. Firstly, the phrase "Somewhere" is in fact referencing a large span of empty desert in particular that's literally named "Somewhere". Secondly, there is a matching space called "The Nowhere", that is essentially the edge of reality as the inhabitants of Nevada know it, and it's been designated a no-fly zone by any and every organization worth a damn within Nevada because nothing that enters The Nowhere ever comes back. But both Story and Arena modes reveal another set of words: "Not long for Nevada". Going through Arena mode again after beating once allows the Arena Player Character to meet The Maker, one of the Higher Powers and the one who had a part in the creation of Nevada. The Maker reveals that doom is coming to Nevada, and merging with the Nowhere over and over is the only way to stop it (at least for now). If the Arena Player Character refuses to do it, then that's it; the world falls, and none of them are long for Nevada.

Here, the reworked mechanics allow players to easily provoke a GO3LM into an easily telegraphed Death or Glory Attack, them performing a takedown to remove their helmet to shoot at the unarmored head, or locking them into a Cycle of Hurting through continuously provoking them into attacks, then performing takedowns on them until they're dead. On the other hand, they're no longer vulnerable to being cheesed by spamming dash attacks on them.

The only thing strong enough to resist it is the titular S-3LF Eater, because it's also an aspect of The Machine. Sadly, it is only for Story Mode, and is not available for Arena Mode. The Minigun for Arena Mode. It is the most expensive weapon in the game (a whopping 1 million dollars, much more than what you get through progressing the story naturally), but it is well worth the price. It can easily shred through any enemy that doesn't have bulletproof armor, and if you play as the Tinkerer, you can mod it to fire Dissonant Energy, making it even stronger. The only downside is that it slows your movement speed by a ton, but that won't matter when you kill anything in your path.

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_a63cfe4a	comment	Meta Fiction: The truth behind the Arena Mode plot. The Player must merge with an event called the Mandatus and relive the events of the game over and over again to forestall the "Machine" from causing End of the World as We Know It, reflecting the declining popularity and presence of the Madness Series from it's heyday with the age of Flash Animation, and Project Nexus's attempt to keep that torch light, by playing through the Arena, the main gameplay mode with replayability in mind, through countless cycles as they're enmeshed over and over. Furthermore, the Protagonist of this mode is portrayed as what is ultimately the first person to ever exist - that is, the first character in a Madness cartoon to do something of interest - and acts as a metaphor for fans of the series who were with it from the start, either watching the original episodes to marvel at the detail or even making their own fan-animations with their own characters.

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_be54cb9c	comment	Bullet Dodges You: There is an entire subset of skills devoted to "TAC-Bar", which is a near-impenetrable bullet shield made out of tactical sense and "pure reflex". Essentially, it's a (marginally) more realistic take on a reliable bullet defense mechanism, mostly just to avert Deflector Shields. A new update to this mechanic is the "Directional TAC-Bar", which makes it a bit harder to maintain. The TAC-Bar only protects the character in a ~180 degree arc in front of where they're aiming, meaning anyone can still get gunned down from behind if they're not expecting incoming fire. Unfortunately though, computer controlled enemies will usually see this coming and adjust their TAC-Bar at the last second to dodge incoming fire anyways. One way to prevent this is by having a squad member distract them so that you can reliably shoot them in the back.

Chopper Dave's name, profession and off-screen habit of horrific accidents is a reference to a Show Within a Show from Sealab 2021 Q-Bert sometimes tells the player character "Oh hey, [player name], I didn't recognize you. You're my favorite customer", which is a sentence taken from The Room (2003) when Johnny buys flowers. The achievement "Slaughter Rank: Genocider"'s very-specific number is a reference to Dead Rising, which had the achievement "Zombie Genocider" for killing 53,594 zombies; enough to (story-wise, at least) kill the entire population of the town the game took place in. The early-game Toughs gang look like stereotypical greasers and will sometimes go "BARF!!" when beat up. Chopper Dave complains to Sweet-Tony that "sometimes even I get boarded!" as an excuse for ditching the Toughs' goods.

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_e545e190	comment	Nerf: GO3LMs were notorious in the original flash game for being armored giant mooks that had a very hard-to-exploit weakness through meleeing their armor until the helmet falls off, which was made harder when they can easily melee you in retaliation for that. Here, the reworked mechanics allow players to easily provoke a GO3LM into an easily telegraphed Death or Glory Attack, them performing a takedown to remove their helmet to shoot at the unarmored head, or locking them into a Cycle of Hurting through continuously provoking them into attacks, then performing takedowns on them until they're dead. On the other hand, they're no longer vulnerable to being cheesed by spamming dash attacks on them. The Hook was the weapon for Sanford in the classic Project Nexus game, and it was unbreakable, meaning that it can serve as an Emergency Weapon for him very well. This game, while it still has the ability to "hook" in enemies, is now as breakable as any other melee weapon, though to compensate, anyone can now use it and Sanford's ability is now expanded on other hook-like weapons.

Then meets you at the bus stop by running over a trio of Vampire Bruisers that would give you no end of hell given how low on weaponry you're likely to be.

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_eb8f64a6	comment	No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: The Arena Player Character's decision to let "Fence" examine at the Enmeshment Drive, as well as provide him with Matter from his Heist contract, means that Dr. Crackpot has enough resources to continue Project Zed without the help of the Nexus Core.

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_ef42ca88	type	Emergency Weapon
MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_ef42ca88	comment	The Hook was the weapon for Sanford in the classic Project Nexus game, and it was unbreakable, meaning that it can serve as an Emergency Weapon for him very well. This game, while it still has the ability to "hook" in enemies, is now as breakable as any other melee weapon, though to compensate, anyone can now use it and Sanford's ability is now expanded on other hook-like weapons.

MADNESS: Project Nexus 2 (Video Game) / int_f55a4778	comment	Combined with Organ Drop, some robots can sometimes drop their leg as a melee weapon. One of the strongest melee weapons in the game is one of Project Gestalt's metal tusks, counting as a Massive bladed weapon.

Fast forward to later in the plot, and it's revealed that while it was true at first, Zombie Gil turned the tables on them and is now eating other Zeds.
