A very refreshing game to the rogue-like genre. The dialog is very entertaining when you meet certain characters / events, and the art-style is such a vibe. If you love rogue-likes and want to support a indie team of TWO people, I highly recommend checking out this game and joining their discord community!
Jerome!! So excited to fully play this game. Already loved combat loop and the weapon variety, but there is so much more there from relics, infusions, fishing, planting, etc.. And there is so much lore. Very pleased with the final product and can’t wait to see more.
可以理解为……小骨的的变体版。甚至剧情设定都很像 动作手感类似星座上升,很流畅手感很棒,打击感也强 构筑与机制的联动不明显,数值才是成王的理由 敌人很呆,甚至根本不会动。但是相应地会出现大范围近战攻击+多发/连发远程攻击+持续性封路魔法的交叉火力覆盖,难度不小 设置里提供了多方面的难度设置,可以自由选择 单局流程偏短,不过可以感受到总体内容很丰富
Koboo is the ♥♥♥♥! I played 5+ hours and am still unlocking lots of new guns and items. Was challenging at first, then I beat it multiple times and the fun of it now is to try out new builds every run. Somehow managed to beat the final boss without getting hit and got rewarded a skin. Worth every penny
I really enjoyed the complexity of the roguelike systems in the game, and it was so charming as well! I'd recommend this to fans of Hades, Enter the Gungeon, and Nuclear Throne. Kudos to the devs!
This isn't a game I would normally go for however, I had a really enjoyable time playing it! I can see this as a game I play when I have some down time and just want to relax. It's definitely challenging in the fun way which is what I was most drawn to. I would definitely recommend this game to all my friends who are looking for something chill but really entertaining!!
Interesting premise marred by odd design choices and lack of polish -The tutorial steps are backwards. You are supposed to open the menu and look at your weapon before using it, which is immensely counter-intuitive This may seem like an easily overlooked flaw, but it's indicative of the design choices which reflect a lack of playtesting and feedback, which include flagrant grammatical and spelling errors in tooltips
KOBOO IS LOVE, KOBOO IS LIFE. if you like action rogue-like side scrollers you will LOVE this game. i may just be a console gamer BUT this game has FULL CONTROLLER SUPPORT so i'm in luck. the default settings are pretty challenging if you suck like me but practice makes perfect and you can tweak them to make it insanely easy and it's still really fun. you can also make it extremely hard too. i was actually one of the first people in the world to get an achievement in this game and you could be too since it's a brand new UNDERRATED indie game. but you gotta act fast. the devs are super cool and chill and swagl0rds >9000 and they put so much love and dedication into this game that really shows. i strongly 11/10 recommend! this game is dope no cap ;)
Quite challenging and enjoyable action roguevania, where it looks like you are constantly facing bosses because of the size of the enemies, but it's because you play as a little guy facing humans. You have different weapons to start with and you can find different upgrades during your run (every weapons has its own types of upgrades), besides other artifacts. You count with 3 HP only and the enemies have marks that act as weakspots, so you better be careful avoiding and hit them where it hurts for better damage. Boss fights are pretty cool and can be really challenging, but the runs are quite short, so retrying them won't cost you a lot of time. Also, I mentioned this is a roguevania when I started here... YES! You can find different permanent upgrades during your progress, which will grant you access to new areas, giving the game an extra touch of replayability (having a secret final boss for a true ending). Also, you can find nice and funny NPCs during your runs to help you with the metaprogression. Pixel art is pretty and music is good, no complains about any of those. Pretty solid 8/10 roguelike. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amtCnEZ4XbM
Great game! Fun to play and amazing looking pixel art. Works great on an xbox controller. Can't wait to play more
