I got Brotato in a bundle a little while back and finally decided to give it a go for myself. It's a decent little vampire survivor style game with de-emphasized metaprogression, set in a smaller arena with a more explicit wave-based structure.

Brotato controls well and has great basic mechanics. Unfortunately, it's a bit same-y from run to run, which isn't a great trait for this sort of game. I found it a bit easy as well. I only lost a couple of times on my way to a win on the highest difficulty, but I've watched Retromation play here and there over the last year, so I had a good idea of the general strategies going in. I'm marking it as finished for now, but I could see myself coming back to try out a new build from time to time.
