Dec. 2024

I think this game is quite good, it's not as difficult as other Roguelike games, it's mainly difficult because the gameplay mechanics are a bit buggy in some parts and the design of some maps is a bit bad (especially the last map). The music is also quite good and some songs are very peaceful, the story is also good enough to entertain. I tried so hard because of Rona (She's so cute and she relies on me so it motivates me a lot). I hope the game will have a part 2 to continue Rona's journey on earth so I can have the chance to punch that bastard Aiden in the face.

Dec. 2024

It's fun in general but I don't feel empower with the progression I made in the game. Maybe just a skill issue for me.

Sept. 2024

This game is unexpectedly good and fun. And Rona is really cute ♥ - Decent Storyline - Great VAs - Simple but challenging in a fun way for a Roguelike - Graphics are good - Default Keyboard Controls are weird but you can customize it. Definitely worth the price if you're a fan of chill dungeon crawling roguelike games. I score it 6.5/10

July 2024

I came to like this a lot more than I expected, but it certainly fulfilled a lot of the things I was looking for: - Science fiction theme. - Robots. - Randomly generated dungeon layouts. - Good combat system. - Isometric view. - Cute. Games that fulfill all of these seem quite rare, so I was happy to find it. At first, I found the combat system complicated, and I was sad that there was so much focus on melee with very little shooting, but I realized that I had to be patient and level-up my skill at playing, and when I had done that and learned to master all the various systems, it became so much a pleasure to play. Now I am sad that I have completed it, and I want more games like it, but I cannot find them.

June 2024

It's pretty good, even if it's a bit janky. It's like a mix of Mega Man with a top down beat em up + rougelike mechanics. Not a big fan of Roguelikes but i enjoyed this game a lot. The combat is a lot of fun, but it does have one big problem: The roll feels inconsistent. It has a tendency to get stuck on enemies, it doesn't travel very far making it so some attacks hit you even if you dodge them and it has very few I-Frames. Once i got used to it it wasn't that bad but it feels like i'm constantly playing around it's jankyness instead of mastering it. A mechanic i really liked was the grab, it does a lot of damage, you can throw enemies against walls or other enemies to deal more damage and it can interact with the stage hazards helping you kill enemies faster. Most levels have their own gimmick to keep it fresh. There's a few smaller annoyances like the minimap not telling you where are your items on the map, things being too expensive/getting too little money and two horrible bike levels that at least are very easy to beat. The roguelike aspect of the mini cores can be confusing at first but it's actually super simple once you're playing. Their timed nature is a double edged sword and can make runs very volatile. A horrible run can be saved and turned into a cakewalk with the right minicores or a really good run can go to shit because your good minicores ran out of time and you're stuck with bad weapons/permanent cores. Nothing that playing well can't fix, when i had to fight the final boss i had no minicores, my permanent cores were awful and my weapon were some tier B Fists and i still managed to win. I really hope this game gets a sequel, i want to see what happens next in the story and to see the gameplay get some polish, this game has the potential to be really amazing, it's just a few tweaks away from greatness.
