At the time of this review I have played the intro + 1 mission, about 10 minutes of messing around.... and I am feeling 10/10 nostalgia. Easy buy buy anyone that played the old Strike games, but also probably for anyone anywhere. Based on what I have seen out of the VERY limited time playing, it feels like there are going to be some fun twists/turns/progression. Really looking forward to diving in. Thank you dev for making this. Scratching an itch I forgot I had.

Awesome Hades-like game with guns. So far I am loving the gameplay loop. Every run is rewarding and the upgrades along the way keep ya coming back for more. Still only scratching the surface, but loving the early game.

Started playing this in 2014 (Alpha 7 I think?) and it was so much fun. Had some good improvements over time, but eventually just totally lost the script. Maybe some people like the new style of game, but I cannot stand it. The focus on super linear quests is very annoying. I have tried to pop back in several times over the last few years... thinking think time I'll like it, this time it'll hook me once again... but every time it is worse. So far from the game many of us fell in love with a 10 years ago.

Great game at a very low price. The value for $9-$10 is quite high. Very nice looking game from the clean/sharp UI to the actual gameplay visuals. The progression so far seems just right with skill/class/god/map/modifier unlocks. Has potential. We'll see how development goes.

Such a good game. I never ended up finishing it the first time around. Got distracted by some other release I guess. Fired it up recently, expecting it to feel dated or somehow not how I remembered it. It is even better than I remembered it. So well done in many ways.

PS: Minefields are a silly mechanic.

I won't bother being long-winded here. I just wanna say that the bones of this game are astonishingly awesome and I look forward to watching it grow into a potential full-blown masterpiece. Here's hoping the dev engagement stays even remotely close to what it's been in this initial stage.

Breach Update: Played two pretty solid long sessions over the first two days of release. Felt great coming back to this game. Took a moment to get my combat bearings again, but once I got the rhythm it was excellent. I understand some peoples' frustrations with it... but I absolutely love the game. Hoping the hotfix will ease some of the issues, but even without the hotfix I have had a very enjoyable time getting back into everything. Really surprised at how hard everyone is dragging the game.

Edit: I am now seeing the crashing issues when I play 60-80+ rounds. Not every time, but definitely noticing the crashing occur when attempting to beat Hard. Certainly disheartening and makes me not want to play because you are never sure if your time investment will be worth anything. Might take a break for a bit until this is figured out.

I still love the game, a lot, and I know the main dev has been very responsive. I am sure things will get sorted out. Looking forward to more from this game.

This game is great. Quite challenging even on the lower levels. Lots of cool options for each tower. Maps are unique and interesting.

Overall very much enjoying everything about this game. I have been burnt out on TD games for a bit, struggling to find a new one that kept my interest... and this is doing it nicely!

Echoing more of what everyone else has said. All around low-effort. Tons of bugs even for an Early Access. Some that seem especially easy to fix but haven't been touched in months since the game came out (uhhh clicking a portal shouldn't be all that difficult...)

Anyway. Bad. Worth no one's time.

Definitely enjoying this game so far and can see some serious promise.

I played 7 Days to Die way back in the Alpha 5ish days (up to about v12ish) and this has a very similar vibe.

There are a good number of quirks and bugs, no doubt, but that is usually to be expected in this stage.

I look forward to seeing this evolve.

Full disclosure I am only playing PVE with a few friends at the moment. I am sure that PVP is a nightmare full of trolls. The bugs that don't seen that terrible in PVE are probably pretty game-breaking in PVP.

This game is awesome. I read many of the reviews and just cannot agree with the negative ones. This game is simple, fun. carefree and just well done. It is 100% worth the price tag.
