Short description

Classic puzzle meets roguelike deck-building! Collect a variety of unique pieces, build powerful synergies, and unleash overwhelmingly inflated scores through explosive “multipliers.” Smash impossible numbers straight into your enemies and beat up the final boss—the developer himself!

About this game

"Kill The Nova" is a brand-new experience where classic puzzle meets roguelike deckbuilder. Craft insane synergies to generate "impossible numbers," and plunge the developer, "Nova," into the depths of despair! ■ The Dopamine-Pumping Power of Multipliers Combine over 150 different "SP" (Special Pieces) to craft the ultimate synergy. Meet the puzzle conditions to break blocks, and inflate your multipliers to astronomical levels. It’s all about the multipliers. Hit overwhelming numbers and make the developer beg for mercy (*Note: there is no actual animation of him begging :> ). Highly addictive Puzzle × Deckbuilding Over 150 stackable SPs with limitless potential Break through and transcend the 7 challenging "Ranks" ■ Control Everything in the Game Choose your path from 10 randomly generated frames. A boss battle awaits at the end of each level. You decide which "Prime Cell" (boss) you want to fight—survive their attacks, and overcome them. During the "Rebuild" phase after battles, you can modify the pieces in your hand to reach even greater heights. Over 20 diverse "Prime Cell" bosses to challenge A Rebuild system that lets you customize your pieces exactly how you want * Use powerful items to gain the upper hand (Yes, you can actually win) ■ Destroy "Nova", the Enemy of Your Dopamine The final boss of each run is none other than the developer, "Nova." Take the ultimate "numbers" you've built and smash them right into his face. He’s definitely going to hate it. But beware... it seems you aren't the only one who can place pieces on the board... Nova's interference patterns grow increasingly vicious with each Rank Your opponent is "100% the real me" (The Developer) ■ Other Features Charming, retro low-res pixel art An original soundtrack that pumps up the gameplay A glorious, mind-melting victory sound that hits you right in the brain

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $6.99
  • Highest observed: $6.99

Kill The Nova's USD price history spans from Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $6.99, the highest is $6.99, and the first visible tracked price is $6.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Kill The Nova's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $6.99, from Sep 22, 2026 through Sep 22, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $6.99. The latest run records $6.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $6.99
  • Current list price: $6.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Kill The Nova at $6.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
