Roguelike Voice Acting, Music, Art, Gameplay. Incredible. Story is lacking, Weapon Variety kind of lacking. 8/10 No Doubt Very Underrated Game

my first Rouguelike when it first came out. The gunplay is really fun, and the story is really fun and quite interesting

SO I got this during a steam sale, I think it was 1.29$ or so (thanks regional pricing). Its a very fun shooter roguelike, the voice acting is amazing. I have attached my PC specs here but I mostly play it on my Poco F7 via Gamenative, and its a wonderful experience there too, a locked 45FPS. The story is interesting, and in a good way. I'm curious why our main character, the sheriff, is in purgatory, though I won't lie and say I have kept track of everything. I only know the gist of what's happening. The gameplay is fairly straightforward. You have two guns, which can be fired with right trigger and left trigger. You move using the left trigger, and aim with the right. You can hide behind boxes which act as cover, where you can reload faster. Each gun has a unique effect, but none of them are objectively "the best". Because I'm an "unga bunga" kinda guy, I love my hard hitting weapons. There are abilities you can pick up. Dynamite, fast reload, a throwable axe, spear, etc. They're not very powerful but I don't think they're meant to be. As I see it, they're meant to be used with your weapons, compliment them rather than be the main focus. You obviously have your health flask (mine is at level 2, meaning i can use it twice per run). Overall, very good game for the price. Looking forward to more from the dev team!

incredibly pretty game, and incredibly fun combat! do not go in expecting "real" action combat, it's more like realtime tactics with your paced attacks and the enemies attacking every now and then, treating it like an action game is a death sentence for enjoyment, as cover is really important for attacking sooner ah but the bosses can bug out. one was stuck on cover and i just shot him without any effort
