The Gameplay: 7/10... its clunky at first but its pretty good. the controls are off but thank you for adding keybinds options to it.
Combat

I love the Nano Plugins, the Weapons from looting is random, The enemy/Ally AI's is very smart, the difficulty loop is a really good, and you can play it with a friend.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.

It is only 2 player coop though, but I feel like this is very unique, and a smart move. 3 or even 4 players would swamp the map and coop would be just be a broken chaotic mess, and not the fun/funny kind.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

This is a great game with Cutesy Roguelike graphics , I really like this game the devs are onto something this is a hidden gem and i recommend everyone to get it and Support the devs this can easily be worth a fair amount of money, I noticed a lack of voice acting but that doesn't put me off, Its such an underrated game that you can get stuck in,
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.

I like the game and the character customization/photo mode, but outfits costing around $10 feels way too expensive for a beta game.
