Genome Guardian 2

The build diversity is good, and it is the type of game that really encourages exploring every achievement and build option, which I love.

While it belongs to the increasingly popular bullet heaven genre, Genome Guardian 2 distinguishes itself through an extraordinary level of customization and experimentation that allows players to construct wildly different combat machines and approaches with every run.

I'm far from having unlocked everything yet, but the most astounding thing about this game is not even the balance or the visuals or the gameplay, but the sheer amount of diverse options in the form of multiple game modes.

outstanding improvements over the first game, good vibes yet spooky at times, fun and engaging variants and upgrades with a robust progression feeling, still feels very gamebreak-y if you do it right but doesn't feel too easy to achieve which helps keep runs feeling fresh.

The soundtrack consists of a large collection of energetic electronic tracks that complement the fast pace of combat.

The story feels a bit unserious early on, but the Files you collect do a good job of telling an interesting story that you only hear one part at a time.
