Ladies and gentlemen we have a new sub-genre of roguelike: ror like.
please no, in the naming, but yes in inspiration
I played both this game's demo and prologue, I loved the prologue way more due to the item system you mentioned, like genuinely just that. The demo is basically the prologue but without the 3 item system (mostly)
The thing about this game, to me, from only the prologue is that it isn't good. But it sure as hell hits my dopamine, it's fun. The only 2 characters I played (while the other 2 available in those games I tried for like a minute and then quit, since I already had seen the entire game) were a somewhat funny dynamic, the character that looks like a magical spellcaster is actually the bullet hell basic attacker-item proccer, and the melee glass cannon looking guy is the actual magical spellcaster. That's a fun dynamic I had with those 2, while it did shatter my expectations, it at least settled into my brain that this is how these characters work and that it's actually fun and not just lame (which they are). Delving into why I think the game isn't good real quick. It's just because despite the many enemy types, due to the functionally 2d map and simple movement, every fight just devolves into running circles until the enemies die, new enemies just have an attack or two where you have to move another direction instead, it's not rocket science to dodge many at once though it's a little trifling but you just outheal it if you do get hit that one time
I also just felt that the game was really easy, my first run I think I made it incredibly far on 100%, then my second run I made it just as far on 200%. But then when I tried co-op ONCE we got our asses handed to us on 100% and it's not like my friend sucked, he just had way less roguelike experience (I'm a roguelike geek and he plays mostly shooters). Basically game was easy solo (maybe due to how you said, the character skill levels are the most important) and then co-op was actually challenging which I'm hoping is just due to the co-op scaling and not my friend nor I sucking ass
From mostly the prologue (Gatekeeper: Infinity) and not so much the demo (Gatekeeper demo), I'd say give this game a solid shot, you have more than enough time to experience this game in the 2 hour refund period IMO if you have roguelike experience, if you dont, I'd say play a more critially acclaimed roguelike first (sorry gatekeeper devs, your game is fun, it's just lesser)
Coop on this game is REALLY fun imo
dayum this roguelike pretty clean
@@Spikey274 yes! It's crystal clear and very smooth
Have you played crab champions? It’s fantastic
@MatteSevai i havent played it personally but I've watched a lot of it. You are right, that game is super smooth
they need to add modding support for risk of rain returns, just like ror2 has it
that would definitely do a lot for rorr
Third person is perfect, why go for isometric now ?
I actually really like it
its funny for me because i was playing this with a friend and was having fun, then he told me "you should try risk of rain", and i got kinda adicted B)
This is the risk of rain mobile game but it made it out of development
That is true, except gearbox would hide stuff behind paywalls
This looks very cool!
@@willingJackMurphyArt yes it is! Try it out
I own the game, and I'd like playing it with you if you wouldn't mind
