This game is a mixed bag for me. While I love theorycrafting and finding great synergies in roguelike games... this game has way too many of them. Most of the ways to break the game involves using effects that loop into themselves, for example you have keywords to effect such as "embarkation" which triggers when you enter a room, and "destination" that triggers when you end combat in a room. There are effects that give you stats based on one of those conditions, but also effects that makes "embarkation" trigger "destination", or items that trigger keywords when you cast a spell, but then there's another item that makes you gain spell cast bar based on stats, which due to the looping nature of stat gain based on keywords mean you can sit in a room and suddenly gain 1000% bonus damage. Then you have effects that happen when you break items, such as stat gain on item break. But there are effects that makes breaking items happen twice or chance to not consume the item, but then you have items that give you items once you break them creating some stupid loops. So overall score from me on this game is... a 6.5/10? The gameplay itself can be quite fun in the start when you're exploring game mechanics, but due to the ease of game breaking builds, I honestly have never seen the attack patterns of the last 3 bosses because it's very hard to not one shot them once you setup one of those loops. I found myself spending more time doing loop shenanigans and breaking the item system than actually fighting. I recommend this game for people who just want to go in and not think too much about it, because it will likely be much more enjoyable that way than whatever the heck I'm doing dealing over a billion dmg a shot.

This is such a fun game to play co-op. It's fun to try out different builds and characters. The Chinese to English translations can be a bit confusing sometimes, but it doesn't detract from the game.

Gunfire reborn, but Enter the Gungeon. Hope they be popping out the content after 1.0 - more guns/relics/chars/synergies etc would be nice.

Not sure if I had a miraculous run or not.. but I completed my first dive on my 2nd or 3rd attempt and it felt unreal.. Went from just the starting character, to unlocking every character on my way through to the end in this single run. Every boss apart from the first felt challenging , Music was fantastic, the combat felt really nice. Not sure how the game changes with different characters but there's a bunch of different guns to obtain with mix and matching gun barrels that you'll pick up throughout the dive to spice up your gun's skills and effects. The relic system makes you feel very powerful once you start getting complementary ones. The Card system is incredible, i think every roguelike should have a card system to spice up the gameplay and this one makes a major impact. To end it off, i feel like i thoroughly experienced the effort the developers put into this game in a single run. It's a welcoming sight when the starting point changed from just having my one character sitting by a campfire, to finishing the credits 2 hours later and being welcomed to presumably every playable character in the game surrounded by the campfire. An achievement hinted at the completion on 'normal difficulty' so i'll have to check out the harder difficulty in future dives.
