It's kinda interesting, but not exactly great. I think there's educational value here. The game really gets a lot of stuff right before going completely off the rails. The story is ok, but nothing too special. There's a Support/Accessibility section in the pause menu that lets you enable invincibility, max out skill points and increase damage. Judging by the achievement stats, most people start fiddling with those options before hitting mid-game. You should probably do that too. So the gameplay is not too sophisticated, but engaging. There's a huge amount of weapons and gear. The game encourages you to use each one long enough to master it. Hitting milestones in how much gear you mastered unlocks loadout options at the hub. This kinda forces you into trying everything out, rather than sticking to the best weapon you have available. Something a lot of games fail to do. Then there's the skill tree, where a lot of the options are real, meaningful improvements, rather than just minor increases to the stats. It's incredible how many games completely fail here. Inventory room is kinda tight, but not obnoxious and encourages you to build a strategy and make sacrifices. The crafting is kinda nice too. On the downside, the areas are just way, way too repetitive to work in what's trying to be a roguelite. The enemies get samey. If you're aiming to max out stats and unlock most weapons the honest way, you're going to have a bad time. It takes forever. But then that's kinda compensated with the option to cheat whenever you feel like it. I think I'd recommend a discount, but otherwise it's kinda alright.

Performs well on steam deck. A great little action packed indie game who has some players who absolutely love this game. This much is evident from the game's steam workshop page.

Grab it on sale. It's a fun game but the roguelike element really does not suit the game. Story is really disjointed and jumbled but the world they created is pretty interesting. Characters are fairly simple and there's not much depth to them, not that there needs to be in a game like this.
