Decent action roguelite
Overall: Face paced action with good visuals and tight controls. Lacks customization and depth and the UI is pretty bad. Game play: The action is fast and skills/attacks are simple and easy to understand. This is both a benefit and a detriment. It's easy to pick up and play, but once you master the upgrade system it becomes very easy to 'break' and each battle becomes repetitious. Mostly comes down to stacking dashes and just constantly dashing, stopping, attacking twice, and dashing again. Some skills, like the thunderbolt dash, are so broken they make all other types nearly useless by comparison. The bosses are a good combination of bullet sponge and evasion. They take a little while to burn down, but not frustratingly long and are visually distinct enough to recognize and dodge attacks. Visuals: Colorful and unobtrusive environments. Looks good and detailed, but doesn’t make it hard to see enemies. Once combat begins, however, the particle effects can make it nearly impossible to see when enemies are attacking so you end up just dashing constantly. Presentation: The UI is pretty bad and intuitive. There are weapon cores, skill cores, passive cores, etc and the way the UI displays them makes it hard to understand what does what. There’s very limited descriptions for some skills. I still don’t know what ‘shatter’ does for one of the characters and there’s no where to check. There seems to be an issue with localization as well. Things like how there’s a main weapon normal attack stat and main weapon skill attack stat, but then also skill attack which is actually the same as main weapon skill attack. There’s enough dialogue with bad grammar and spelling errors that it actually becomes noticeable. Story: It’s a roguelite, so there’s not much here. Each character has motivation, but nothing particularly interesting or memorable. It’s a game more focused on the game play and that’s totally fine. Not a detriment to the score, but it might not be for everyone.
