Sometimes it Need only ONE Game to release a big Hype for a Genre. Remembering the Real Time Strategy Hype in the 90´s? DUNE 2 started it and COMMAND & CONQUER put the Hype on a new Level. So does VAMPIRE SURVIVORS. A simple but absolutly addicting Game that put the Action Roguelike on a new Level. Many Games like it followed. Mostly you have different Weapons in all this Games. Swords, Guns, Bows, Magic, Traps and and and. But did you ever fight with Pancakes? No? Then welcome to PANCAKE PATROL! In PANCAKE PATROL you take Control of a cook. Your Mission is to deliver Pancakes to Pembrook Mansion. But your way goes through thousands of hungry Monsters. Equip your Food and then give´em hell... ehm PANCAKES!!! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3370228632 Gameplay is simple to learn but hard to master. Start with low Pancakes and earn more Food to fight ...ehm feed the Monsters with. They come from all around you and the more you kill, the better the Chance for Upgrades. If you played VAMPIRE SURVIVORS before, you will be surprised from what is going on on the Screen. What a Bullet Hell. Really hard, but never unfair. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3370228919 PANCAKE PATROL has different modes like the Boss Rush. You can also unlock up to 10 Characters, each with it´s own Special. Combine your Powers, try out whats your Style and enjoy. Just enjoy! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3370229180 There is so much Content and so much fun. What can i say it is hard but the feel good one under the Survivor like Games. Absolutly addicting. A big thanks to the Devs for this wonderfull invite. So, if you like challenging but fun Roguelike Games, then this is for you. PANCAKES FOR EVERYONE! And thank you for reading.

It might not convince you with pretty images and special effects, but it has everything you need in a horde survival game. As is frequently the case, all characters except the starting one are locked. Some will unlock as you make progress, while others may require additional effort. Fortunately, the prerequisites for unlocking them are visible. Aside from the varying attributes, each character has a different amount of weapon and utility slots, as well as a unique talent. Slots are crucial since they indicate how many different weapons and gear you can acquire during a run. Gameplay is standard. You move across the area, auto-shooting enemies and collecting gems to fill your upgrade bar. After leveling up, you can select one of four perks. This could be a new weapon, an upgrade to an existing weapon, or a boost to your statistics. There is a limit to how much something can be improved, yet each one makes a difference. For example, you can double the amount of projectiles, increase their penetration, have them bounce from target to target, and so on. Because it is possible to upgrade everything to the highest level before completing a stage, the upgrades change to health, damage, and shield boosts when you are out of option. Synergy is a unique feature that transforms two completely upgraded common weapons or gear into a special weapon. There are 10 synergy weapons, and their requirements may be seen in the arsenal menu. Unlike most horde survival games, this one contains a progression system in the form of a map with stages that must be unlocked in order. At the end of the day, the goal remains unchanged. To advance to the next stage, you must first survive for the required number of minutes or defeat the final boss. These fights are more akin to bullet hell because the space is confined and the opponent has an attack pattern, but you can avoid a lot if you invest in speed upgrades. Stages are not very interesting because the visuals are pretty basic. Enemies change, but the arenas are mostly made out of one single floor template with only a handful of extra assets. Common foes swarm to you and don’t attack. They may have varying speeds, but they cannot damage you from a distance. Although mini-bosses appears after a minute or two and sprays bullets at you, it is not too difficult. The greatest obstacle is the number of opponents that appear on the screen because you can get overwhelmed if you don’t have a weapon strong enough to take them out fast. Difficulty, which allows you to tailor enemy strength with three settings, determines the coin multiplier. A single coin is worth more as you go higher up. Coins are then used in the upgrade menu to increase standard stats like as damage and speed, as well as to unlock new weapons that appear during level ups. Also, if you don’t like a weapon, you can lock it and make sure it doesn’t appear. Challenges for each level are another nice way to earn coins. Each stage has a large number of challenges, but they repeat across the stages. For example, you must beat them with all characters or at varying difficulty levels. However, there are some fun unique challenges that encourage you to come back to previous stages because you can’t beat them with basic characters. A large number of achievements will keep you busy for a long time. They require a lot of effort and a bunch of runs, but you might stick with it due to fun gameplay.
É um roguelite razoável, com os chefões sendo bullet hell bem mais divertidos e desafiadores. Em alguns momentos sinto que é repetitivo e falta balanceamento, em outros parece justo. Acredito que seja questão de tempo para que o jogo fique bem polidom, ainda é novo e o dev atualiza constantemente o jogo.
Played for a bit and I'm already having a lot of fun with this game! I especially love the food theme, it helps the game stand out from other games in the genre. The progression feels satisfying and addictive and theres alot of content. I also like that you can customize the difficulty to fit your playstyle. Personally, I enjoy increasing the enemy count because mowing through huge hordes is incredibly satisfying. Definitely recommend it!
幸存者类型游戏最重要的是爽感,爽感,爽感!而不是可爱或者题材。 现在角色走的太慢吞吞,按空格释放技能会被锁在原地很久很久。 很多反传统的设定,不太理解作者为什么这样设计。

There are some pronounced performance issues when it "gets busy," and this has nothing to do with your computer (I'm on a i7-8700K/32G/4070ti); you can easily see this in Horde mode past, say, 10 minutes in. Despite these minor annoyances, the game is great fun with a solid progression path, and it's not a gimme - you gotta put in the work in the beginning to get "over the hump" before it starts to open up.. as it should be, it reminds me of a certain game (hint: 4th word of this text). I hope the game gets more traction! And hopefully the performance issues when there are tons of enemies on the screen are addressed.
The recent constant updates and work at making the game better is why I'm giving positive instead of negative. It's your basic bullet-hell style game, with not very engaging or exciting gameplay but I've seen much worse on the market. My biggest gripe is sometimes the game gets so laggy it crashes out. But when the crashes occur I've not lost progress / coins gained during the level. Seems as if the developer is actively trying to make it better which is huge! Just launched a huge weapons revamp update.
Awesome Survivors-like game. I asked the developer for a QoL improvement, and they did it right away! I'm sure they can't always do that, but it was very cool of them.
Was given a key for this game a few months ago to check out on stream (you can find the stream on youtube if you want to see the game play). I finally found time to check out out. So, these vampire survivor style games really aren't my jam, and I went into this game with quite low expectations. That being said, take some of my opinions with a grain of salt. I played for about 3 hours, and honestly, while the game isn't quite my cup of tea, it was still fun to check out and play for a few hours. In the few hours that I played, I didn't encounter any bugs, crashes, soft locks, or anything game breaking. The graphics and effects are quite well done. The game play was -very- simple, but smooth, and unlocking most of the weapons and utilities is actually fairly fast, had almost everything unlocked within the 3 hours i played. Despite the simple nature of the game play, it is still quite challenging with a lot of unique mobs with their own special behaviors and attacks, including bosses. Over all, the game was quite fun, and for $5 (USD) at the time of this review posting, its worth it. Although this isn't something I would play on a regular basis myself, It is something I feel I could play with my nephews without getting the evil look from their mothers. The only real negative thing I have to say about this game is the fact that it truly is just another Vampire Survivors style clone that really doesn't really do much, if anything that we haven't seen before in other games of this genre. That being said though, I still recommend it as a good alternative to Vampire Survivors for the kids.
