This game suffers exactly from what Cult of the Lamb suffers from. Really nice art style that's visually appeasing, but it's EXTREMELY shallow and the gameplay feels super dated.

The gameplay is, you shoot... and dodge roll. And hold E sometimes along with dated inventory management. That's it. You don't get to expand on this at all or change it up. The game encourages you to use different ammo and such but anything outside the basic and elemental bullets are pretty much worthless. Either you can kill everything with little effort or enemies are bullet sponges because an enemy 7 levels above you spawned. There's also an extreme lack of enemy variety and all of the current ones feel similar.

It get's boring very, very quickly once you find out what the core loop is. Hard pass unless you like 1 hour of gameplay stretched out to 15+. I wish the devs the best as I don't think these issues would slide that easily.

Edit: I had a feeling I originally did see this game as 4 player co-op. They quietly shoved that under the rug and toned it down to 2 players. Doesn't really matter because co-op is basically: you're bored with your friend and co-op interaction is almost nonexistent.
