How have I not written a review of this yet? Noticed I hadn't while checking (hopefully ngl) to see if there was some DLC (hint hint, devs). Seems there was a pretty solid update recently, as I have a bunch of new quests to do! But onto the game! This is probably my favorite of the Zombie Survivor likes (or "bullet heaven" games). The way they actually utilize time- and specifically how beneficial wasting it is- is a really cool concept. Boutta play the game and gonna do a couple things first? Start the game, leave it on the main menu. It's worth doing. Rushing for the boss fight? Wrong move. Take your time. Kill everything you can. Max out your loot! This is just such a fun game. Simple runs, a solid amount of mixing and matching, and a really enjoyable loop!
Well, it seems to live up to its name… --- At this price point, you don't ask much from a game. Distraction from reality, something interesting to do. This satisfies with some flashing lights, pretty colors and an enjoyable soundtrack that you can zone out with in a bullet heaven space themed rogue lite. If you're not familiar: bullet hell focuses on enemy-fired patterns you must dodge while killing enemies, while bullet heaven (like this) features player-generated auto-attacks wiping out massive hordes that you dodge while trying to kill them, and both test spatial control through contrasting offensive and defensive loops. And at its core the game play loop is literally a loop. Twiddle your ship in swirling patterns to avoid enemies while your ship pumps out whichever weapons path(s) you're currently upgrading. The concept never gets more complex than this, while the patterns you engage in become more tight and require more precision with each passing minute. Expecting each session to last anywhere from a few minutes to maybe 30 before being overwhelmed you'll pick from a variety of weapons and upgrades that will mildly change your pattern choices, but still all function vaguely similar. Expect to die, collect things, die again, rinse and repeat. The rogue lite element unlocks various incremental upgrades that start you out a bit stronger on each restart. And that's pretty much it. What you see in the trailer and screenshots is the field, endless waves of enemies and a variety of boss fights to waste your time doing nothing but find ways to more efficiently waste your time for longer each play session. No deep story, no complex puzzles, just an endless test of how long can you loop your way through space while your ship kills an endless supply of enemies until it's time to start over again. But for what it is, it runs well, it's fun and the music is atmospheric. Sometimes you just don't need anything more complex. --- Bottom line: A simple game done well to pass the time. --- [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38232109/]While you are here, would you consider following my curator page?

Really fun game. That Slay The Spire thing where they only give you a choice of 3 upgrades out of hundreds is super addictive for some reason. There are some really cool mechanics in this game, like the gold bug that delays your gold harvest but gives you more in the end, and the little outposts that you can also upgrade.
with as much as is going on in game at any given moment, I'm firstly amazed that I never had even a blip of lag or game stutter. This game, the design, the balance, the mechanics, the implementation is SMOOOOTH. The difficulty is beautifully balanced, enough randomness that you can't just instantly optimized your way thru it, but enough control that you have to be strategic in your upgrade choices on same levels. Best Time Waster and best $5 I've spent in a long time.
