Steam reviews

What players say

Players mostly recommend this free roguelike for its art, music and tough but fair challenge, while many find the dodge, hitboxes and random room generation frustrating.

Many players praise the cute pixel art, the soundtrack and the large variety of weapons and characters, and say the free price makes it an easy recommendation. Their main praise is that the difficulty is demanding but feels fair, since deaths usually teach a clear lesson for the next run. Some players also enjoy the dark story and unlockable content. Complaints centre on the dodge roll, which many find too short or unforgiving, and on enemy hitboxes that do not match what is on screen. Some players mention contact damage, slowdowns and reload mechanics. A few say the game is too hard without an easier mode, that some runs are ruined by room generation, and that the text is hard to read. Opinion is largely positive, but criticism of the combat and controls is consistent.

Praised

  • Art style and music

    Players praise the cute pixel art, the character designs and the soundtrack, calling the presentation polished for a free game.

    Many players
  • Fair, learnable difficulty

    Players say the game is very hard but fair, since each death shows what went wrong and boss patterns can be learned.

    Many players
  • Variety of weapons and characters

    Players enjoy the large number of guns and the different playable characters and NPCs, which keep runs varied.

    Many players
  • Free price with lots of content

    Players stress that the game is free yet offers a surprising amount of content, unlockables and secrets for the price.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Dodge roll and hitboxes

    Players find the dodge roll too rigid and enemy hitboxes unreliable, so they take damage in situations that look avoidable.

    Many players
  • Very high difficulty

    Players find the game too punishing, with unforgiving runs and no easier mode, which discourages them from continuing.

    Some players
  • Random room generation

    Players say room generation and RNG can ruin a run, for example by giving mostly shops and few fights, or by unfair item outcomes.

    Some players
  • Unclear mechanics and text

    Players want better explanations of weapons and items and say the text is hard to read, with no option to enlarge or change the font.

    A few players
Who it suits
Players who enjoy hard roguelikes, learning boss patterns and trying many weapons will likely get the most out of it, especially since it is free.
Who should skip it
Players who dislike unforgiving combat, imprecise hitboxes or random runs, or who want an easier mode, should probably skip it.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with short playtimes mostly recommend the game for its look and fun, while those with dozens of hours focus more on challenge and a few longer-term frustrations.
