Abyssus

pppfffftttttt!! BEST FREAKING GAME, LIKE EVER!!

I've been playing a lot of roguelikes, and frankly a lot of the FPS variety ones tend to feel just about the same. Abyssus has been a hell of an experience that I keep coming back to, with friends as well. I'd say it's a good land, for a fair price, with devs that seem dedicated to funnel more content into the game for free, which is outstanding, and it makes me want to support these devs more and more. Pretty typically, at lower difficulty levels this is a fun experience of fooling around with potentially wacky builds. At higher levels you're more obligated to pick certain blessings (IE, Frost and Goldburst) as they scale better against health levels of bosses and the potentially absurd modifiers that can land on elites (Sturdy as a modifier has killed multiple runs of mine if landed on certain elites). But, really, that's not all different than any roguelike. Gameplay can be REALLY tight, especially on bosses. But, when builds piece together, it's always a satisfying experience. I find myself often climbing, sleepless, into the next expedition just to try out a new idea. The final boss' secret phase was a rather badass experience, and hell, the transition to the second phase is one of the coolest bits of audio I've ever heard. I think possibly one of the strongest elements the game has is the visuals. It's rather unique in what it's been called with 'brinepunk'. It all looks good, sounds good, and feels absolutely amazing. With the oncoming major update coming, I excitedly wait to see what else there is to play with. I hope for more diversity in builds, for all blessings and weapons to feel viable even at the highest ends of gameplay. Some of the random elements I feel could use some more tuning is the only other criticism I can figure: I want the merchant to perhaps sell blessing upgrades, more opportunities for gold, and the challenge room options to be diversified too. Even at the base price of 25$ I'd say this is entirely worth it. You'll get more than your money's worth, and have a grand time if you like a game that challenges you, and encourages your experimentation.

My squad and I love this game — the only flaw is it’s too short — we want more levels!

Me and my mates play the brine every night. its so peak and honestly one of the best fps roguelike games ive ever played, Genuinely so fun and pretty niche for its time. Worth EVERY penny.

Excellent jeu, fidèle à son style. On cherche les runs les plus puissantes et les plus difficiles à la fois. En espérant que la version finale ne soit pas trop répétitive :)

Overall fun game, only thing that I really have that is negative is the Golem Prototype boss, way too much stuff to worry about to properly fight it. I feel like if one of its ground attacks were removed (or the spinning beyblades) then it would be perfect, the final boss's slow field is also insane (have had it cover nearly the whole arena and couldn't do a thing about it. Other than that, no complaints here.
