What players say
Going Under is a fun roguelike that is a cynical game wrapped in a bubbly corporate slop parody artstyle, harkening back to the times where people could actually find internships. The gameplay is fun, making the most of its weapon durability system by allowing you to basically use anything thats not nailed down and within arms reach to be a weapon to swing, shoot, or throw. Im addition to that, there are powerups...
Amazing game!! Does not deserve to be as niche and unknown as it is! had an amazing time with it, just wish there were more options to control the length and difficulty of dungeons, the game feels way too easy and super fast at times, felt like I speedran the story without much chance to take the early game in. Overall thou, the themeing and vibes of the game are funny, colorful, and amazing, my only wish more...
