Very nice and smooth-feeling roguelike, definitely one of the more accessible games I played this 7DRL.

Whoa! Great job!

  • Loved the sprites applying to the character!
  • Loved the vast breadth of equipment types!
  • Loved the enemy variety!
  • Loved that you could level up!

Sure, balance was a thing, but if you were anything like me - you got all the way to the end of the jam, and wasn’t really able to play it through enough to properly assess everything and tweak values.

All in all I was really impressed - great jamming along side you 🥳

good tileset, the colors changing over time are a small change but do a lot to give the game a bit more progression. the equipment changing the character sprite is a nice touch.

i appreciate the classic rougelike feel. levelling up feels oddly infrequent, at least early game. ranged combat options are a nice addition. the laser sound is very loud...

the assassin chestplate is incredibly powerful, that on any build guns or not is usually enough to win the game. i appreciated getting a good stockpile of items to use, although usually the issue was having too much stuff.

Hey, thanks for the feedback.

You can probably tell I didn't get to balance the game as much as I wanted. Levelling was one of those things, but the rewards were pretty powerful so I didn't want you to get to the end of the game with +20 firearm damage.

I hope you enjoyed.

Whoa, this was cool. I like the sci-fi aspect to the game.
