One of the most immediate and ludicrously fun things I’ve played in God knows how long. Class diversity that makes every survivor feel like you’re playing a completely different game (so far my favourites are Huntress and Loader), items that all have their uses, you have things that appear useless on one class that are ungodly powerful on another and you can recycle them for the chance at better ones, not to mention how the effects all stack, insane scaling which’ll ensure either you or your enemies will end up broken overpowered before the end of the run, and just all the secrets and little polishes throughout. I also really love it’s art style, with lots of vibrant, solid colours and this unique, ethereal kind of atmosphere that I really haven’t seen anything else like. Only flaws that come to mind are how buggy it is on console, and no item sharing in the multiplayer, so unless you’re playing with friends you’re probably going to have that one asshole hoarding all the items. Other than that though, a contender for one of the best roguelikes I’ve played. I bought it on sale for $8 and honestly feel like I got away with highway robbery.
