It's a good bit of fun for fairly cheap. I WISH you could change the color of wires to make connection legibility easier.

It’s a very unique roguelike where weapons and buffs interact with each other. You connect them to discover crazy OP combinations. For the price, I definitely got my money's worth. Unfortunately, it suffers from the same issue as Clover Pit: a massive item pool full of weak items with terrible synergy that bloat your choices. With only 6 choices, half of which are usually forced into movement or splitters, options dry up fast after the early game. It desperately needs a ban-list system like Megabonk to filter out RNG and streamline build styles. I said this in my clover pit review as well, but it's amazing that Balatro's balance allows you to clear purple stakes with no fault of your own with the massive amount of jokers it has, In this game difficulty 2+ here completely locks your fate within the first 5 rounds based purely on your starting drops. Some simple QoL updates would also go a long way: color-coding socket inputs/outputs, and adding color borders to quickly identify item classes (mech, tool, wand, pet, etc.). Despite the poor balance and need for deeper item interactions, it’s still easily worth full price. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3774663264

Good game with some fun combos, but in endless running into performance problems with the code/game itself. Around level 52-55 too many skunks seems to break the game, and it doesn't seem to be multithreaded. CPU/GPU are practically idle but getting like 1-2 frames per second. The game has the GPU is barely being utilized, CPU says 0% for that process, only using around 1.2GB of RAM. Have 3 full boards, was about to buy the fourth, so not sure if that's where the issue is or what. I'd recommend overall. Hopefully more items are added for more combos. Also, the devices that move the weapons around need to have more buffs and modifiers attached to them, or need to be smaller. There's not a good reason to have tons of those items.

skunk actually almost crashed my game (getting 4 frame per sometimes whenever they want) with iit's AoE dealing a total of 1.5mill damage in wave 50-ish. I pull it out from the grid, and then I lost the run. 10/10 would do it again and let it ride. if you like the feeling of creating chaos yet actually working weaponry is your jam, if cable management nightmare is your jam, if "monke see big number, monke go happy"-type game is your jam, then this game is recommended for you.

This game is dangerous. Almost 12hrs played on day 1. It combines all the evil of rogue-likes, deck building and tower defence - with the OCD of making sure everything is wired in properly.
