Asterogues

Strongly recommend this game for anyone who likes roguelikes and bullet hell games, it's very fun. Each character has an entirely unique way of playing that makes the whole game feel different. Items feel relatively unique and are very streamlined. However the game definitely lacks polish, which isn't too bad considering how new it is. My biggest personal issue is the sheer lack of visual clarity, I generally get hit either because I can't differentiate my bullets from the enemies or they just blend into the environment or the constant flashy effects your character makes. Another big one is getting dropped directly on an enemy entering a stage so you immediately take damage, it's not constant but it happens enough that it feels pretty unfair. Bosses seem to attack behind text boxes as well. It's a really unique breath of fresh air but I can definitely see these problems wearing me down, might have to wait for an update or two but definitely recommend at least keeping an eye on it.

Definitely needs some more polish, but a decent game. I know recommending this game seems weird considering the negative feedback I am providing below, but just understand that the overall experience is pretty enjoyable. Consider this one of the "lower tier good games" out there, and can be easily bumped up if some of the critiques are addressed in the future. (keep in mind this review is being made on the same day as the full release) Even though iv never played "into the gungeon" I have a strong feeling this game takes heavy inspiration from it. The gameplay feels decently fun, but id recommend not grinding this game in one sitting, since the gameplay loop will become repetitive quickly, take your time and space out when you want to start another run. Some critiques: The music is mid, and id recommend just lowering it and playing you own music instead of it. The game play is a lot slower than you would expect, since your melee attack is way too risky for such a low reward, and your "slow down" attack requires that the enemies shoot bullets first. Sometimes ill get hit and have no idea what hit me or why. Also there should be more options to make bullet visibility better even when they are on top of your sprite, and to make it so that your hitbox dot is ALWAYS visible. The reason why this feels necessary is because of something subtle the game does: as your character faces a different direction, the hitbox dot moves to a different spot. While I really don't like this feature, since it makes figuring out where my hitbox is significantly harder, this can be midigated by just allowing an option to have the dot always visible.

This ♥♥♥♥ is so fun. If you like games like enter the gungeon or roguelites in general, this is an instabuy.

One of the first person to write this game a review who got it FOR FREE! I'll be honest that this game is much more difficult than other Rouge-lite Gunner RPGs, I'm sure anyone should be careful on bullet spammer enemies especially maining the main character who looks like an ANGRY COVER ART KIRBY. Goes Hard.

Joguinho muito muito muito promissor, nível Devolver. Muitas coisas ainda precisam melhorar, como: Personagens que estão com mecânicas muito vagas, totalmente sem defesa ou precisando melhorar a maneira como suas skills funcionam. Muitas coisas no jogo ainda estão incompletas, também. PORÉM, o jogo está sendo feito por um cara só, e tirando os problemas que mencionei, é um joguinho absurdamente divertido. EDIT (minha avaliação era positiva antes): Aparentemente, abandonaram o jogo. E ELE NÃO TÁ PRONTO.

Roguelite quasi sconosciuto ma con delle meccaniche veramente carine, personaggi con gameplay totalmente unici che sembrano provenire da videogiochi differenti, se volete un bullet hell corto da giocare prendete asterogues ad occhi chiusi.
