Iris and the Giant

VampCoD, ты не совсем умный? Разработчик не удалял и не блокировал игру, а дал вам возможность забрать бесплатно. Зачем ты занижаешь оценку игре то? Какое отношение к этому имеет разработчик и сама игра?

During gameplay, the game becomes unplayable, forcing you to abandon your previous progress. Fatal in roguelite games.

Thx GOG.com for the giveaway. After reading about some peoples problems here, I first have to say: The game is running fine on both machines here (Ryzen 5 3600 with RTX2060 Super and Celeron N4100 notebook). I had no crashes and no performance issues, even on my lower end machine. The game itself is quite good, I think. It's not the genre I normaly tend to, but I'm having good fun with it. Its surprising relaxing for a game where you fight hordes of demons :-D

I like the aesthetic and VA, the gameplay was OK, but after 4 or so relaxing hours sort of playing it in the background, I ran into a gamebreaking bug ("sign of the snake" never ended, so every run constantly sapped my max health). Apparently this has been a known bug for a year or so, and hasn't been fixed on any platform. Disappointing, because otherwise I mostly enjoyed the game. The other criticisms about "you die too suddenly" / "too RNG heavy" / "too opaque" are also valid, both on their own merit and compared to other roguelites, but they weren't dealbreakers. Unaddressed gamebreaking bugs are. Too bad because otherwise, I enjoyed it. At least I got it from the giveaway so I didn't lose money, but I probably won't buy from this dev.
