Guidus Zero

Game gets repetitive after E1+ Builds don't get very varied and run to run is pretty much same enemies/biomes Also this game has a lot of visual clutter for some/end game builds because of all your procs and etc But I did have a decent time playing. Getting true end can start to feel like a slog though.

A very charming game, although it suffers a little bit from not enough information being explained and being rather unfair a lot of the time. Gameplay wise, I had a lot of fun all the way through, with the whole grid-system being quite engaging. Most bosses were very fun to learn the patterns for, and some are easily baitable to do specific attacks that might be more convenient to dodge or abuse for damage. The story is okay, typical fantasy "save the world from evil forces lurking in the depths" going on here. It gets the job done. Endings being gated behind harder difficulties is quite an odd choice though. While it may be manageable on the easier ones, Eclipse and Total Eclipse are a huge jump in difficulty (those alone took more than half of my total playtime to do). Enemies get so condensed on the harder difficulties that it becomes basically impossible to avoid damage, on top of some enemies teleporting right into attacking range out of player reach or moving away from you before attacking. They do a lot more damage as well, even with damage reduction (yay!!!!!!). Also, said enemies become faster than normal, meaning they can easily overwhelm you unless you have a wa…

Combat mechanics are pretty fun, but the game isn't very polished. [list] [*] Controls feel clunky and take getting used to. [*] Character skills don't change much across the run. You level up within a run and are given choice of static upgrades, but they didn't vow me. [*] Upgrades are boring and also don't add much variety. In 3 runs I haven't see a single one has an interesting behavior or could create a strong synergy. They are all very safe. [*] Telegraphing/Visibility could be improved greatly as there are plenty of attacks that are either impossible to see in melee range or just don't look like threats with the color scheme. [/list]

Its pretty aight almost 50 hours got every achievement's was worth the cash

Really fun , cute art style, unique grid based action. Not super high on build variety but the game just feels really good to play.

Eh. Game was okay. I did buy it for $7 on sale so I definitely felt like I got my money worth. In short, there was barely any decent or good item combinations for replayability and the game was very easy. Took maybe only 7 or 8 runs. I only recommend if it is on sale and if you're looking for something to fill in 1-3 days of your time while waiting on something else to release.
