Keep in mind that the mod is free! you can click 'No thanks, just take me to the downloads'
Nuclear Throne Ultra greatly expands Nuclear Throne, adding in new weapons characters areas, bosses, crowns, secrets, 60fps, widescreen, gamemodes and other mechanics.
Each character has 5 (or more) ultra mutations. These are the mutations you get at level 10. One of these ultra mutations is a secret one, and you'll have to meet a specific condition to use it.
Each area has an inverted version that you can randomly encounter. In these areas enemies have less health but are much more aggressive including a different version of the boss. The inverted areas hold weapon mods which allow you to upgrade your weapons!
Ultra mod has its own unlock system, with B and C skins for each character and over 40 gamemodes to unlock. You can unlock all retail characters or unlock everything using cheatcodes if you do not want to unlock things.
Leaderboards! Ultra mod has its own dailies and weeklies. The weeklies consists of unique combination of gamemodes. To participate in the leaderboards you need a steam account and have steam open upon booting up the game. This also allows you to get notified in-game for new updates.
There is much more, such as a way to equip multiple crowns. Something that swaps your projectiles around so your machinegun fires lasers! And some other things that I won't spoil here.
The Ultra mod community is quite active so please join us and share your videos, feedback custom survival arenas and bug reports.
I will also regularly post updates there.

F.A.Q.
Nuclear Throne by Vlambeer is required to play this mod.
Download
Install instructions
- Make sure Nuclear Throne is updated (no mod branch)
- Go to your local nuclear throne folder (steam library->NuclearThrone properties->Local Files->Browse Local files (This is the folder where all the music files for Nuclear Throne are stored.
- Place all the files in the local folder (.exe, audiogroup, the data.win and options.ini)
- Start the game via the .exe and enjoy! (Don't start it via steam, it might cause the game to run at double speed)
- To update, repeat this cycle and replace the files with the new ones! (Your save file will not be lost)
The non_steam version is for when you do not have the steam version of Nuclear Throne. I'm pretty sure the other version also works. But with the non_steam version you will not be able to access the daily/weekly
If you want to play the old school version of Ultra mod you need to use the beta branch and select Mod. Then put the file into the Nuclear throne folder there. Though beware this version is very outdated.

I see an option to import a custom survival arena in the part that you can change your game, but i can't find anything to create the .Json file or anything. I've tried googling but i can't find anything. If someone could help that would be greatly appreciated.
i hope the update comes soon
¿Hay una versión para 32 bits?
it keeps saying there's an update even though I downloaded the latest version
There is a beta going on. you can join the discord to ask for beta access https://discord.gg/dE3CYh2PDD
Nerves of Steel doesn't seem to work properly when playing as Viking. I didn't gain any armor, just took the HP penalty.
I downloaded the mod and .exe don't come with the archive
You're a lifesaver! I noticed I got NT in a bundle years ago and this made it go from fun but headache incuding to actually playable. Thanks for all the hard work!
I think i messed up the installation as im getting some WILD audio
i am so lost on what to do with that little purple devil. i think its some kind of quest similar to the 3 crown parts for the 1+ level. someone pls help
You need to take a secret crown. Then he'll offer to curse your weapons. If you come to him with two cursed weapons. He'll give you a reward. (There are other ways to curse your weapons in which you can skip the first part)
started playing on random characters, but I get fish and crystal more often than not
Have you got more development movies like this?
No I didnt think there was a lot of interest for it. But I could possibly do more
Well, I think we've had a lot of new GM users lately

When ATOM gets Gamma Guts, does the contact damage add up and make it stronger than other characters get Gamma Guts?
Yes!
No :(
I love this mod, but sometimes I get hit by invisible projectiles/enemies and die. Then the kill icon just shows some glitched means of dying, like it shows my character sprite or other things.
Also, some of the ultra mutation descriptions are glitched in confusing ways. For example, when I am going to pick a secret mutation, it sometimes just shows another mutations description.
All and all, love this mod, this is Binding of Isaac levels of polish, keep it up please!
If you find bugs its best to report them in the discord maybe with screenshots then I will fix them. Though since this was a month ago it might already be fixed
A certified hood classic!
Hi there's any way to edit texture files from this mod? I want to make texture compatible with this mod and I don't know how to do that
The mod is open source, so you can change everything! In the discord server you can find some information on how. Though its still quite tricky.
yeah question uhh how you make such a good ass modd???
I might be missing something really obvious but is there a way to play above 60 fps?
I may also be missing something really obvious, but I believe in vanilla NT the game speed was tied directly to the 30fps frame rate, and it seems to be the same here. Meaning, if you WERE to run this above 60fps somehow... good luck.
the 2023 beta version of the game on steam allows you to change the fps to above 60 in the settings but you cant play ultra mod and the beta at the same time unfortunately
how do i make the active shift key
is the mole character real?
no
okay so I don't know if I did something wrong, but I've done what the instructions said with both zipped and unzipped files, and the mod just doesn't apply to the game, is there a solution?
Is there a way to get the ultra weapon before reaching level 10 or within 1 loop? I need the ultra weapon to select the secret mutation of the rebel, but I can't get it before reaching level 10.
avoid the rads
An alternative way to get the secret ultra for rebel is to have no healing mutations when you reach level ultra.
Also the ultra scrapyard has guarenteed ultra weapons
anybody knows how to get into the idpd hq? i cant figure it out.
alguien sabe como entrar a los cuarteles del idpd? no logro descubrir como
Ultra mode doesn't seem to includes idpd HQ stage.
No podrían hacer una actualización para poder jugar en modo Cooperativo? Ya sea en LOCAL o LAN?
There was no error in the old version, but after prelease the error seems to have gotten worse since version 30.xx. After a little bit of playing, the crash message window pops up and the game stops.

Hey All. Just thinking about buying the mod but want to make sure it works on steam deck and if there is any guide how to mod it. Any help would be much appreciated.
Switch to desktop mode and enter file explorer. The Nuclear Throne folder should be located at "/home/deck/.steam/steamapps/common/Nuclear Throne/". Paste the mod files as normal, open your steam library, click "Add a Game" on the bottom left and "Add a Non-Steam Game..." Click Browse, and once again head to the Nuclear Throne folder and select the .exe for Nuclear Throne Ultra. Once the mod is in your library, right click it for properties, click compatibility, check "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool," and the first option, "Proton Experimental," should work. After that it should run just fine!
To make it look nice, you can add a logo and custom background by downloading PNGs for the Nuclear Throne Ultra logo and some gameplay for the background like one of the photos on this page. Right click the empty background and it should have an option to set custom logo and set custom background.
If you ever need to transfer it, your game data will be stored in "/home/deck/.steam/steamapps/compatdata/[some string of numbers]/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local". You'll have to look for the numbers, but I believe it should be one of the longer ones. The "NuclearThroneUltraMod" folder can then be transferred from the steamdeck to a computer or vice versa to transfer the save data.
Btw, I'm not exactly sure if controller works because I haven't messed with it much, but a bluetooth keyboard and mouse work fine if you're okay with that.
Thanks alot. Will try it out.
quiero en modo co-op

déjame en paz infelix ustedes y esos guevones de la comunidad en español nunca podran conmigo siempre tengo multicuentas pendejos y nunca van a saber si soy yo o no soy yo pendejos tantas personas que hay jaaaaa

Para cuándo una versión para Android?
Decent mod, but why tf is the exe so old looking? and not to mention how horribly put together the settings menu is? idk why it's not a simple ntt mod, but it's whatever.
Because it's built up from the original mod which predates ntt. Hence why it doesn't work like a normal ntt mod, it's built off a much older version of the game
Well, yeah of course, but why couldn't the mod be updated into ntt?
You would have to completely rebuild the mod to do that afaik
