optimization4 negative mentions
  • Unique MMO raid-inspired rogue-lite gameplay with engaging boss fights and strategic build customization.
  • Beautiful art style, well-designed bosses, and an excellent soundtrack that enhance the overall atmosphere.
  • Fun and chaotic multiplayer co-op experience, with active developer support and regular updates improving performance and adding content.
  • Game suffers from pacing issues with frequent shops, rest stops, and text events slowing progression to boss fights.
  • Performance problems at launch including stuttering, freezing, and crashes, though many have been addressed in patches.
  • Clunky mechanics with floaty and slippery movement, ambiguous hitboxes, confusing UI, insufficient ability customization, and lack of clarity on stats and effects.

  • gameplay

    31 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    10% positive mentions, 80% neutral mentions, 10% negative mentions

    The gameplay features fun, flashy mechanics with engaging MMO raid and roguelite elements, but suffers from poor pacing, overwhelming visual effects, and awkward mechanics that can disrupt flow and clarity. While bosses and mechanics offer challenge, issues such as unclear feedback, repetitive add mechanics, clunky controls, and multiplayer inconsistencies hinder the overall experience. Fans of the genre may find it rewarding with patience, though the game currently needs further polish and balance improvements.

    • “Fun mechanics and builds.”
    • “Worth playing if you're a fan of Rabbit and Steel or just like MMO raid mechanics and roguelites.”
    • “Scratches a bit of that 'dodge big AOE à la MMO' itch, awesome to play with friends. I'd like to see more mechanics like the color barrels where players actively do actions that are relevant to survival.”
    • “The mechanics are almost overly flashy, and I can't keep track of my own character throughout the fights.”
    • “Adds mechanics in every boss require you to hold onto your special damaging abilities in order to pass their DPS checks, so you can't use them on the boss, but since the bosses can and absolutely will repeat adds mechanics quickly before your cooldowns can come back, you can solve the mechanic and then immediately be subject to unavoidable damage afterwards because you cannot solve the mechanic with the tools you have available.”
    • “Well, the fights suffer from poor mechanical visibility (I can only imagine it's a nightmare if you're colorblind with how translucent some aspects are), awkward hitboxes, and poor feedback and visibility on important things like delivering or taking hits and cooldowns becoming available.”

  • music

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    64% positive mentions, 36% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The music in the game is widely praised for being fun, fantastic, and evocative, effectively complementing the fight design and enhancing the overall atmosphere. It features epic boss soundtracks that add character and depth to the encounters, contributing significantly to the game's engaging and immersive experience.

    • “The passion that went into making each of the bosses with a unique arena, music, style, and gimmicks shouldn't be passed up on.”
    • “Love the theme, the art and music are great, it's got a lot of cool concepts... this should 100% be my jam.”
    • “Also pleasantly surprised by some of the epic boss soundtracks!”

  • optimization

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    27% positive mentions, 37% neutral mentions, 36% negative mentions

    Optimization has improved significantly since early patches, with many initial stuttering and shader loading issues largely resolved, though occasional lag can still occur during heavy effects. Some users still report performance problems, especially in the tutorial and boss fights, indicating there is room for further polishing. Overall, with recent updates and reduced particle effects, the game runs more smoothly for most players.

    • “Got the game after patch 1.04 and haven't had any performance issues.”
    • “Most of the performance problems are fixed as well; the only time we ever got lag was when we had like 20 burn procs on a boss.”
    • “Otherwise, my performance didn't have any major issues.”
    • “For starters, it had a horrible stuttering issue where the game didn't properly load its shaders, causing the game to freeze momentarily every time a new animation played.”
    • “It's clearly unoptimized and there is zero quality-of-life to this game.”
    • “Performance issues everywhere.”

  • story

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    33% positive mentions, 17% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The story receives mixed feedback, with some finding it intriguing and layered, while others struggle to keep track or find it repetitive across species. It is relatively short and overshadowed by gameplay, with cinematics sometimes clashing with the game's visual tone. Overall, the story serves more as a backdrop to the gameplay rather than a central focus.

    • “The story is intriguing and there's definitely more to be discovered after 5 hours.”
    • “Fun, relatively short game to finish the story and defeat Void Genesis for good - there's still more stuff to do afterwards, upgrades and abilities to unlock. Played solo, very doable but requires some failed runs as you figure out your build, strategy, and how to read/dodge boss attacks.”
    • “The story is difficult for me to keep track of; besides that, the different species have identical storylines.”
    • “The cinematics and story clash wildly with the visual tone of the actual gameplay.”
    • “The story is difficult for me to keep track of; besides that, the different species have identical storylines.”

  • graphics

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The game's graphics are praised for their distinctive and attractive art style, especially in cutscenes, character, enemy, and environment design. However, significant graphical bugs and crashes severely impact the visual experience and gameplay stability.

    • “You can tell the developers' personal art style shines through with the cutscenes, characters, enemy, and environment design.”
    • “The bosses are all super cool and I love the artwork style.”
    • “Art style and visuals are also class, very pretty.”
    • “The game has numerous graphical bugs, including the screen going completely black, requiring restarts. Using DirectX 12 might help, but the game can still crash when loading a boss, and upon return, runs at 3 frames per second, leaving you stuck inside a mechanic.”
    • “Tried restarting multiple times and adjusting graphics settings with no success.”
    • “The game not only has terrible pacing issues but also suffers from severe graphical problems that impact gameplay.”

  • stability

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game experienced significant stability issues at launch, including frequent freezes and crashes, particularly during first-time effects and boss attacks. However, developers have been actively working on updates to address these problems.

    • “The first time any effect happens on screen the game freezes for a solid 2-3 seconds. This is independent of settings or specs, and it seems to only happen once per session, but this was not thoroughly tested after restart.”
    • “The game freezes every time a boss does an attack for the first time and it often crashes.”
    • “Buggy on launch but the developers are constantly working on updating and fixing the game.”

  • replayability

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The game offers solid replayability enhanced by its well-crafted music and art. High-end fights incorporate familiar MMO mechanics that add depth, and introducing varied player roles or dynamic attacks could further increase engagement and strategic learning.

    • “Replay value is there and the music and art are very well done.”
    • “The game adds a lot of replayability by incorporating common MMO patterns in high-end fights like stacks, spreads, tethers, and towers. Different attacks requiring players to take on unique roles, such as positioning themselves during specific mechanics, make learning each role more engaging and fun.”

  • humor

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users find the game's humor limited and repetitive, noting a lack of variety in comedic events throughout their playthrough. The jokes and humorous moments feel few and tend to recur, reducing their overall impact.
