What players say
The game has been out for years with no updates. There are many translation errors and a lot of item stats or dialogue are just missing. This makes you unable to tell what most items do, which makes it difficult to make good choices. The main gameplay is fun at first, but the progression is really repetitive, which makes you encounter the missing information every run. If you're look for an authentic abandonware...
It's almost okay for it's sale price ($4), but it's not finished at all. Controller support is not fully functional, English translation is quite poor and missing completely in many places, things that seem important for progression are not explained at all, and there are plenty of bugs that can break the game still... Could have been pretty awesome if they had bothered to finish it, but that's not the case... :(
Deeper, funnier and better roguelike than Enter The Gungeon and Nuclear Throne! I'd say it's on par with Binding of Isaac. This game has less stuff overall, graphics and OST are mid, but the game is frantic fun, more akin to a real bullethell! Several characters with different shot types, powers AND INTERACTIONS provide a LOT of replayability!
