Two years to the day since launching into Early Access, indie studio Fiveamp has unleashed Endless Bloom — the largest, most feature-packed update yet for chaotic modular-gun roguelite shooter NIMRODS. It’s live right now on Steam, completely free for all owners.
Build Ridiculous Weapons — Fight Through Alien Worlds
NIMRODS turns you into a weapons engineer on the fly: scavenge modular parts across alien-infested planets and snap them together to create wildly overpowered, utterly absurd firearms. Every run means a new monstrosity of your own making — and Endless Bloom gives you more ways than ever to build, break, and blast.
What’s Blooming? Full Breakdown
Endless Mode — The Run Never Has to End
The most requested feature in the game’s history is here: beat the final boss, and choose to end your run — or keep going with no level cap. Beyond the end lie Bonewalkers, Cinderskulls, Duskwraiths, and the nightmarish Ossuary — enemies designed to test even your most broken builds.
Violet Forest — Brand-New Biome
The south of the map has bloomed into a luminous, fungal wilderness teeming with unique threats, minibosses, and a fearsome final boss to conquer. Every corner brings new ways to die — and new parts to make you unstoppable.
Meet Bubba — New NIMROD Character
A brand-new operative joins the roster: Bubba, an overheal specialist who literally feeds on excess health to grow stronger. He’s hungry — and he’s ready to tank for the team.
More Firepower Than Ever
- Two brand-new guns plus a fan-favourite returning from retirement
- Ten fresh augments to twist your build in wild new directions
- Every existing augment rebalanced for a fresh feel across all loadouts
- Three new Airdrop Pods + six completely reworked ones
- Full economy, mission, and XP progression rebuilt from scratch
- Distinct attack patterns for bosses Malphor, Mush, and Titanus — no more same-old fights
Leaderboards & Achievements
- Steam Leaderboards — compare your most absurd runs with friends and the world via the new Leaderboard Station on your Homeship
- New Achievements to hunt down
- Gundex Medals — earn across five tiers for every gun, augment, character, and Pod you master, with detailed play-tracking Logs
Quality of Life Overhaul
Save slots, fully rebindable keys, custom gun naming, on-screen controller cursor support — the list goes on, all shaped by player feedback from Discord and Steam.
