First unique game I've seen for a long time. Easy to play, with a learning curve that matches the total time you spend playing. Erudites will grasp the fundamentals and mechanics easily, others might not (just because you don't get it, please don't trash it in a review ya troglodyte). There is a save and quit function, perfect to kill boredom when you need to!

I got this game through play pass and it has been incredible. Reminds me of a space themed turned based strategy game that I used to play. I love the feature for saving guns and perks for when you die. Only issue is the levels are super repetitive! And the enemies are pretty easy to cheese. Smallish variety of guns too but well balanced. I'd say $8 is a bit expensive though... add more features and I'd be more impressed, very creative and unique game so far! 4.2 stars.

Very Unique Roguelike. I like it, but it could use some more customization to really make it stand out and increase replayability! Maybe a couple more slots, statuses like poision or stunning enemies, stuff like that.

It's a light turn-based strategy game. Enough variety for good replay value, The simple graphics are charming. It takes a few runs to get familiar with the gameplay, and it's sometimes hard to remember the enemies' moveset.

I really don't know how to feel about this game. On the one hand it has an incredibly impressive visual style and engaging gameplay. On the other hand it is extremely punishing and it feels like I have to restart from scratch every single time I die. I feel very conflicted, and ultimately believe this isn't the game for me.

Really addictive turn-based strategy roguelike, great simple moveset and progression with just enough light dialogue to carry things forward. Good for a bunch of runs until you get a good pattern of upgrades saved up and then rinse and repeat to climb up the levels.

Compelling and fun game with addictive progression loop and funky retro aesthetic. Could use a tutorial or Help section that's a bit more comprehensive. It also EATS battery, even on high end devices (reporting this on Pixel Fold).

Entertaining storyline, endearing characters, super enjoyable gameplay. Takes some getting used to, the lingo is a bit confusing at first, but so worth it to stick with it. Worth buying the full version!
