This is fun! I really dig it! Simple easy to pick up gameplay, really charming graphics, and lots of upgrades to unlock. I think the weapons might need a little balancing, and there are some times where getting mobbed feels really difficult to break out of, but that has never made me tilted. I think this is a real gem of a game and I'm excited to see what updates come out for it.
7/10
This game has a lot of potential, but right now I can't recommend it. The art and atmosphere are great, the weapons are fun, the bosses are entertaining. But there's not enough run variety to make it fun to replay many times (critical for a roguelite), feedback on what's happening is not good (why do I regain sanity sometimes? what do the various effects / power ups actually do?), I think skilled players may find it easy (needs difficulty settings), meta progression is minimal, and playing online with a friend we had some serious sync issues (non-host player taking damage when on their client they appeared to be well clear of danger). If you like to buy games purely to support devs and hope they grow into something great then this may merit your consideration. I evaluate Early Access titles as-is because you never know when development will suddenly cease, and by that measure I can't quite recommend this one.

EA review so we'll see how full development turns out. So far so good. Currently there are two biomes leading up to a boss per biome with the enemy roster slowly expanding as you progress. You start with an axe and a pistol, you can find drops of a currency that can purchase additional ranged weapons. Right now you can unlock the shotgun, the tommy gun and the rifle and there are "?"s for upcoming weapons On each level you can find Incantations that grant bonuses; these can be stat increases or abilities such as a jumping slam attack. They come in common and rare varieties with the rares granting bigger increases. You get enemy drops and can smash crates to get ammo and gold. The gold is used after each level to increase the ammo cap, the firepower or the firerate for your guns. What I'd like to see: More levels, enemies and bosses. I'd like the bookcases to have a chance to drop something when destroyed. I'd like the Axe to be developed a bit further. Being able to charge an attack or being able to hold for repeated attacks would be nice. Perhaps have the different playable characters come with different 'Hold' attacks. Or have the Axe do charged attacks and introduce another weapon that chains attacks on hold. I found that it can be difficult to gauge where melee attacks will land, the range extends further than the Axe's reach. Not sure what the ideal solution would be. I found that sometime ranged attacks would not register, clear line of sight but nothing landing. I'd like that to be tightened up. Right now it's a fun diversion if seemingly quite early in early access and I look forward to seeing what'll come next.
Играл в коопе, у приятеля из-за мелких багов сгорела жопа несколько раз. Затем он рейджанул и удалил игру. Но наиграли к тому времени 9 часов. Было весело)
Nice graphics and gameplay somewhat fun, but it's just too janky. They are actively fixing bugs though.
I have played this game for 30 minutes and co op is sound. So if your looking for a good co op here it is. More later on bugs if any but honestly its casual challenge fun for you and a mate. Give it a go.

Игрушка веселая, на джойстике играется хорошо, периодические баги - просто эффект даров темных богов ^_^ Рекомендую
Lovely artstyle with a cool roguelite touch to a lovecraftian horror. I played it single player and had lots of fun trying to master the levels!
