  • The game has a charming pixel art style with cute characters and a cozy base-building system that provides a unique progression element.
  • Combat and movement feel fluid and fun with a satisfying roguelike gameplay loop that is addicting and offers a lot of variety and distinct character playstyles.
  • There is a good amount of content even in early access, including a diverse mix of room designs, challenging bosses, and some enjoyable minigames that reward players.
  • Recent updates changed core gameplay mechanics drastically, replacing room-clearing combat with survival wave modes that feel repetitive, reduce skill, and often force passive playstyles.
  • Localization and translation are incomplete, leading to missing or untranslated text in UI and dialogue that impacts player understanding and immersion.
  • There are issues with visual clarity in hectic fights, controller aiming feels problematic, and the base-building system is grindy and lacks important quality-of-life features.

    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has seen significant improvements from earlier versions, offering a fun and challenging roguelike experience with fluid movement and variety. However, some players find recent core changes and certain mechanics, like fishing, less engaging or underdeveloped. Overall, the gameplay is praised for its simplicity, art style, and content depth, though it may involve some trial and error and occasional bugs.

    • “V0.2 to v0.1 is like a day and night difference, in terms of mechanics and how fun it is.”
    • “This game has great graphics and actually really good gameplay loop for a roguelike.”
    • “All in all, this is a perfect game for a simple control but challenging gameplay.”
    • “Hopefully they roll back these core gameplay changes, because it’s honestly gotten pretty boring.”
    • “Fishing kinda sucks, mechanically it's kinda nonexistent and you need bait you can buy during runs if you visit an item shop room.”
    • “I didn't really get to try other gameplay mechanics because of how boring the roguelike part is.”

    The game's graphics are praised for their charming, cute pixel art style that is visually appealing and easy on the eyes. The variety of characters, skins, and the base-building visuals add depth and enjoyment, complementing the smooth and responsive gameplay. Overall, the aesthetic is vibrant, fun, and enhances the roguelike experience.

    • “Neat roguelite with a super cute pixel artstyle, characters and skins to unlock, and an entire base building system.”
    • “I love the overall aesthetic and design of the game, the art style is very easy on the eyes.”
    • “Cute pixel graphics, many characters to unlock, character progress tied to base building and resource gathering during runs, nice music.”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story features cute anime characters and an interesting premise with engaging play styles, but it is currently incomplete and sometimes difficult to follow due to translation issues, missing dialogue, and untranslated UI text. Some base building and side quests add depth, though minor jank affects clarity.

    • “A little bit of jank, cute anime girls, silly characters, interesting story, fun play styles”
    • “There is some base building and side quests at home just like the description.”
    • “The story is a bit confusing to follow and currently incomplete.”
    • “English translation issues make it hard to understand the story at times; some dialogue lines are missing and some UI text remains in Chinese.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The grinding aspect is significant, with many features demanding extensive effort for relatively limited rewards. Resource gathering and unlocks rely heavily on a single resource type, making progression feel unnecessarily repetitive and grind-heavy, especially in base building. While the mechanics are enjoyable, the overall grind can be tedious.

    • “Currently in an 'almost there' state, but has a lot of features that just require a ton of grinding for questionably useful rewards.”
    • “Having only one type of resource for item/skill unlocks and metaprogression feels bad and unnecessarily grindy.”
    • “The base building part is grindy (requires resources from playing the roguelike plus limited resources from exchanging in the vending machine on the base).”
  • music
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music is well-received, featuring good quality and variety that complements the game's fun, flashy gameplay and charming pixel art. Some users noted a minor issue where the background music disappears during dark scenes, suggesting a missing thematic or ambient track. Overall, the soundtrack enhances the immersive experience alongside sound effects and visual style.

    • “Great art style and music, a lot of variety, flashy fun gameplay, and a ton of content even this early.”
    • “Cute pixel graphics, many characters to unlock, character progress tied to base building and resource gathering during runs, nice music.”
    • “Music is good, sound is good.”
