Fun little game, not without its quirks but worth the pittance asked for it. It executes well on what it sets out to do and when you consider this was entirely a one-man effort, it really is a fine showing. The Dome Keeper inspiration is apparent, you tow resources back to base to purchase new upgrades in nearly the exact same way. There's no dome to defend but you have a limited oxygen supply so that provides the time pressure. There is no digging though (aside from the odd bomb), you find resources stuck to surfaces to pick up, so keep in mind that it is still a very different experience. One thing I appreciated is that many of the tools you can buy at the shop or find around the caves are things you tow along like you do resources. Some, like compasses that point to cave entrances or glow sticks are good to just drag around with you, while others like lanterns and key cards are more for just bringing somewhere and leaving them. My favorites were the ones like the silt vacuum, reserve tank and scanner that you could interact with to activate their effects. The guide line you can drag to make a visible path you travel faster along is especially cool. It's all a neat take on inventory management, without having an actual inventory. Visibility is a big thing in this game. It's dark and your primary light source is directional, aimed at your cursor. Navigation and locating resources aside, there are also creatures lurking in the depths to watch out for so you have reason to be cautious. Objects block light as you would expect, and that includes the things you're towing so it sets a suitable vibe. Then there's blinding silt clouds, murky areas and disorienting caves and creature attacks that rotate your view to keep you on your toes. If I had any complaints, the two that stand out are that the log entries you can find can't be perused outside of missions and that the arcade cabinets are a rather jarring distraction from the main event. The former is the sort of thing that may make it into a QoL patch sometime, and I do hope that's the case, I'd think it would be an easy addition. The latter isn't going anywhere, since they're involved in challenges and the good ending. I think they're all minigames the developer made previously, included as a kind of showcase or portfolio but they're a weird thing to find in the depths and stopping to fiddle with them seems quite inappropriate given what you're down there to do. The games themselves are actually pretty fun once you figure them out but they just break the flow and setting too much. Did I mention the rest of the world goes on while playing them? Monsters can still find you and absent a rare, randomized upgrade, your air still depletes as well. The game isn't terribly long and while the randomized layouts add replay value, I didn't get that "just one more run" feel that Dome Keeper is so devilishly good at providing. The individual missions all have different conditions, objectives and main beats, but rather than each building upon the last, they're more like individual themes that never fully combine in later missions. That isn't a bad thing but there aren't a lot of them and it's a shame there isn't a more fully randomized or customized option, perhaps locked after the final mission, that puts all of the toys on the table at once. Ultimately, those are nit picks and the game itself is a fine experience. I'd like if there was more but it doesn't overstay its welcome stretching things beyond where they should and that's a rare level of restraint these days. The price is about right, all the more so if it comes on sale so give it a whirl if it sounds interesting!

It is extremely shocking to me that a experienced game designer like Luke would make so many FTUE mistakes. This game would be 10x better if the initial 3 adventure selections are locked to only 1, and unlock each one by one from just completing the previous quest. I thought they are difficulty selections at first glance and went towards playing the third one directly and I have missed some tutorials and contents from the previous 2. Also this is no way near a modern Roguelite experience. Most upgrades do not make you feel stronger. The controls to open boxes are super tedious, and get even more annoying when the quest has time limit. Why would I still need to collect resources from the chest and put them into the shop, this is pure pain. This is not a bad game, but I think it still has long way to go.

For this price it's a lot of fun. I really enjoy it. The game is really well made. Relaxing and fun.

Its alright. Not really my thing, pretty repetitive. Wouldn't really classify it as a roguelike in my opinion. Its basically just levels with randomly generated environments so its TECHNICALLY a roguelike, but not in the traditional sense. Would've been cooler if it was one giant level or something.

Great game, from a great developer, but its biggest downfall is that it feels like a mobile game.
