Gameplay

24 of 39 sampled reviews raised it
To be honest, I hardly ever play action roguelikes like this, but based on my first four hours of gameplay, my first impression is pretty positive.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
13 of 39 sampled reviews raised it
Combat is fast-paced, featuring a mix of melee (hack) and ranged (blast) attacks, all set to a heavy metal soundtrack that intensifies the in-game atmosphere.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
9 of 39 sampled reviews raised it
First, I was quite familiar with the local Indonesian developer "Glory Jam," having played and thoroughly enjoyed even unlocking 100% of the achievements for their previous title "Hello Goodboy" which featured a beautiful art style and a simple yet unique story.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
6 of 39 sampled reviews raised it
Banger OST and metal music that will keep that adrenaline pumping during each run, especially in a boss fight where the music go hard.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
3 of 39 sampled reviews raised it
Overall difficulty and exploration: I’m not saying the game itself is easy, but clearing each room felt relatively manageable.
