by Endroad, Microids

The Developer Says...

Lead the rebellion in an epic rogue-like adventure. Guide your jet-pack equipped post-apocalyptic volunteers through a labyrinthine underground complex by jumping, dodging, and battling against robot minions (and masters) to get to the surface — and bring life back to the scorched Earth.

Players Like...

❤ Movement and Platforming

Players praise the game's use of a 2.5D perspective, which allows them to move through connected 2D planes in a three-dimensional space. This creates a sense of depth and exploration, as players must carefully navigate between different planes to progress. Reviewers highlight the fluidity and precision of the movement and jumping mechanics, which are essential for traversing the game's challenging environments.

❤ Combat and Abilities

The combat system revolves around timing-based evasion and attack patterns. Players must learn to dodge a diverse array of enemy attack patterns effectively, while also timing their own attacks to maximize damage. Reviewers highlight the satisfying feel of the combat, with one stating that "the gameplay is nervous and can feel very satisfying when you start to master it." The game features six playable classes, each with unique abilities and playstyles, providing a good degree of variety and replayability.

❤ Progression and Customization

The game features a progression system that allows players to unlock new characters and upgrade their skills between runs. While the initial levels can be quite challenging, the ability to gradually improve one's character through permanent upgrades helps to alleviate the difficulty curve. Reviewers appreciate the depth of the skill tree and module systems, which allow for a degree of customization and optimization. However, some note that the lack of detailed information on the effects of certain upgrades can be frustrating for players seeking to min-max their builds.

❤ Level Design and Replayability

Reviewers praise the well-crafted, procedurally generated levels, highlighting the 3D looping nature of the environments, which create a satisfying sense of discovery as players navigate through interconnected rooms and planes. The randomized nature of the levels, combined with the varied enemy encounters and level hazards, contribute to the game's replayability, as players can tackle each run with a different strategy and character build, leading to a diverse range of experiences.
