Beatdown City Survivors

got 12 hours on the demo and so pumped this is here

开局送的三个人物没有任何优点，死得那叫一个快，还搜集不到什么资源，第一个地图通过条件不明。色彩很好，但是人物拳击攻击范围成谜，并不是目测的手臂或者腿的长度，一股子半路出家的味道，想营救的人物超过十五分钟就很难救出来了。

My objection with this game is simple: it's Vampire Survivors, but your basic starting attack, on which a great deal of reliance is placed, is a hitbox-intersection-range melee attack. In other words, good the ♥♥♥♥ luck dealing damage without also taking it. I'm not [i]great[/i] at Survivors-likes, I'm competent, but I flatly cannot survive past the 2-minute mark in this and do not even remotely understand how I am expected to. I'm getting enough cash per run to afford about 1/5th of the most basic tier 1 upgrade. Not fun. Also, unless you really, REALLY enjoy rap, this is the worst soundtrack I've heard in years.

Great soundtrack, fun weapons, probably the hardest survivors game I've ever played.

this game is sick as hell

A must-play for any fan of the bullet heaven genre

This review is going to be an odd one, as I personally don't enjoy the game and will likely be refunding it. That said, I fully recommend this game, it just isn't for me. So much of this game is great. The setting, the club house that you can build up/fill out, the massive amount of unlockable characters, and the soundtrack is just so damn good, and I say this as someone that really doesn't listen to rap since they drop the N word every other breath. It's more DangerDoom (Danger Mouse and MF DOOM and just so good with a punchy rhythm that fits the setting so good. The gameplay is also very different from most games in this genre. Rather than just firing off a weapon every few seconds, you have a melee attack unique to each character that just smacks the crap out of nearby enemies. This can range from slow, heavy dropkicks, to rapid punches and kicks, to slamming the ground and creating a shockwave, the list goes on. So what is my problem with it? Well, the game has ground hazards, tons of them, and it feels like you're tripping over poison or fire constantly, which rapidly drains your health. I've heard there are characters that just turn this feature off entirely, but not being able to play 99% of the roster just to have some fun really doesn't sound good. The metaprogression also feels painfully slow, upgrades start at $1,000 in game money, and drops only go up to $100, which most drops being $20. It's just... ridiculously difficult, more difficult than what works for me. Please note I say "works for me". If you like intense survivor-style games that'll test you, you're going to enjoy this game, and I think you'll genuinely have a great time with it. NuChallenger built something genuinely special here, it's just not for me and I'm one of those people that can respect that. Grab it if all that sounds good to you, you're in for a real treat that has no problem giving you a rough trashing.
