Heat Death

An excellent little deckbuilder. The combined cards mechanic is very fun, and will be even more so once there are more cards in each of the pools to theorycraft with. My only issue with the game is the length of the runs. Outside of a couple runs with 'one' card wonders, it feels like I only just found my cool combos a fight or two before the boss. Very balanced, but sometimes I just wanna feel powerful for more than 8 minutes. Beyond that, very fun game with moderate replayability. So long as development continues, I foresee all these issues being dealt with. As of the time of writing, I'd rate this game at ~~$10 give or take. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☐ Beautiful ☐ Good ☑ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ It's just gameplay ☐ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Audience }--- ☑ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☐ Grandma ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☐ Check if you can run paint ☑ Potato ☐ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Difficulty }--- ☐ Just press 'W' ☐ Easy ☑ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Grind }--- ☑ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about leaderboards/ranks ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☐ Average grind level ☐ Too much grind ☐ You'll need a second life for grinding ---{ Story }--- ☑ No Story ☐ Some lore ☐ Average ☐ Good ☐ Lovely ☐ It'll replace your life ---{ Game Time }--- ☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☐ Short ☑ Average ☐ Long ☐ To infinity and beyond ---{ Price }--- ☐ It's free! ☐ Worth the price ☑ If it's on sale ☐ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ Bugs }--- ☑ Never heard of ☐ Minor bugs ☐ Can get annoying ☐ ARK: Survival Evolved ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☑ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10 Grab this review template here! 👉 https://vojtastruhar.github.io/steam-review-template/

what the planet doing? exterminating the known universe

Heat Death is a surprisingly solid and stylized roguelite deckbuilder that has you playing as planets of all things. The combos you can make are better than I would've expected from such a semi-harebrained concept, and it is very satisfying when a run goes well. However, the content feels limited, and there is surely no way this is going to get expanded, even though it says it is an "early access version" on the game's bootup window still. I got this game for like $2.50 on sale, and that is a fair price.

Solid card game, worth it on sale but lacking in replayability.

A brilliant game, with excellent style and a card fusion mechanic that encourages you to create powerful combos. If you're a fan of deckbuilding roguelikes and want something that puts a unique spin on the genre, this is the game for you.

One of the more unique deckbuilders out there. Some interesting aspects that set it apart from others: [list] [*] The game gives you frequent opportunities to combine cards together, allowing you more value for less resources used and less deck inflation as well as some emergent properties from combining cards [*] Satellites can be freely positioned by dragging them around and it has this physical and tactile feel to it. [*] Just really solid design in general. Builds are satisfying to make, cards are impactful, effects can spiral out of control into crazy strong combos. Lots of build variety for each character you can play as. Easy to not see this as "unique" but a lot of deckbuilders forget they have to be good games before looking or sounding good. [*] Not only can you choose the next node in the map, but the maps are themselves in a larger map with selectable nodes. [*] The difficulty modes are more than just "stats up" difficulties and are actually fun to adapt to, but they're also implemented in such a way that they don't just negate builds with their new rules. [/list] Though the graphics might not look like much from the storepage, the aesthetic is actually surprisingly appealing up close and very easy on the eyes. This and the vibes the game emanates in general gives a kind of zen feeling when you play this.

Nice deckbuilder in space

It's a good game

Needs some QOL and design updates, but the engine and the variations between characters are excellent. This is a rare roguelike deckbuilder/slay the spire em up that has really thought about different ways to play and is well worth getting on board early with to support its development. Two thumbs up!

Runs are really short even in classic mode. Its definitely a neat idea though.
