Has anyone played Fury Unleashed? Does it allow the user to save at the end of the level?

Dogmaus: I couln't like that one. Everything feels fake, like enemies and guns are props, the physics felt floaty. Also it's unpolished, hardly a great game. Cool that just one person made it but the result is amateurish.
Me neither, for exactly the same reasons as you. It didn't pique my interest as much as Ziggurat did for exmaple, even if that one became repetitive quite fast.

Having said that, just yesterday i bought Immortal Redneck and, from a short session that i've had with it (less than 30 minutes), i think it's a nice game. I can't recommend it for now, as i need to see more of what it has to offer, but the initial impression was good.

These are some successful ones:
https://www.gog.com/game/crypt_of_the_necrodancer
https://www.gog.com/game/dead_cells
https://www.gog.com/game/streets_of_rogue
Dead Cells has received a lot of acclaim, and CotN is quite original, with its rythm game element.
I have also liked https://www.gog.com/game/monolith a lot so I'd like to mention it too.

Does anyone know which Video Options are available in Fury Unleashed? I checked the PCGamingWiki but the options weren't listed there.
"Action rougelike farming simulator"

Maxvorstadt: So please explain me: What is the magic of Roguelikes?
Personally, I would prefer always being able to save and restore (and decide for myself if I want to use it) and I really dislike locked game features (that aren't actually anything like Rogue). Still, there are a few games I can appreciate anyway. There is a challenge aspect to needing to start over when you mess up that I don't mind as long as the game isn't too long and as long as it feels mimimally fair then it is also a nice challenge to figure out what you need to do to last longer than you did previously. I think in true Roguelikes knowing when to run away is a key part of surviving and being able to load a save means you can avoid learning that. There is also a nice exploration feel in some of the games, although I think something like Hollow Knight is ultimately a better way to do that these days (there were more technical limitations in the early 80s).

In this sale I'd recommend Bionic Dues and Tales of Maj'Eyal (the nearly full base game is free at te4.org, missing only a few features). Bionic Dues lets you save and restore and has no unlocks, although it receives fair criticism for the endless variety of very similar upgrades that you still often need to check (paritcularly on higher difficulties). I like how different characters in ToME have different perspectives on the world and even different mechanics. There are a bunch of stats but they are explained better than most similar games. While I wouldn't say the writing is all that great there are at least some interesting aspects of the world. There is a mode where you can revive as often as you want. I tried Tangledeep but nothing in that one kept me going.

I also like Into the Breach and I suspect it will appeal to many people who don't generally like that type of game. It is short enough that starting over isn't that bad and it also feels fair. FTL seems like one of the worst.
