Too little content for this game to be enjoyable beyond the first 15 minutes, and that's a generous estimate. Any build different from concentrating on upgrades that raise the number, power and speed of the crosses automatically shot by the character is going to be easily overwhelmed by the enemy horde; however, once you do that, the challenge becomes trivial. New enemies and obstacles stop being introduced around Level 20 or so, which was 10 minutes into my run. Such an overpowered build is also the only way to keep a barely acceptable framerate, lest the action slow down to a crawl because of too many enemy sprites on screen. In short, my third attempt ended after 30 minutes simply because I decided to quit. The graphics in Atari 2600 style look cute in screenshot but in motion, the faux scanline effect is terrible.1 found this helpful
Excellent roguelite/roguelike.
A Priest Into The Graveyard grabs your attention at first glance: The visual style is really nice and the sound tries to go for a retro Atari-like vibe… The foundation is clear: pure Vampire Survivors. But something feels off: the best way to play… is not to fight. If you attack, annoying floating objects start appearing and clutter the screen and there's nothing you can do about it because if you touch them, they'll take away almost 90% of your health and you can't dodge it. It’s weird. Really weird. I didn’t totally dislike it. I even put hours into it, mostly trying to understand it. But that doesn’t mean it’s well designed. It has something that keeps you going… but not because it’s good, because you want to figure it out. If you’re looking for something like this, you’re better off going straight to Vampire Survivors or trying alternatives like Karate Survivor. This one… unfortunately, no.
The reason why I am giving this a thumbs down, is because the creator could of done a bit more. I wish there was at least 2 other sound music tracks, and you didn't aim target those guys that you can't kill. Also it lags bad when killing a bunch of demons at once. Also trying to figure out what upgrades do what wasn't fun. Still though if you got spare money and if this game is on sale go for it not much to loose
I mean... I've definitely spent 49 cents in worse ways. Feels like something that should have a WILD lore background, or like its part of a ARG/creepypasta or something. I gotta chill on the YouTube rabbit holes. Anyway, it's fine, buy it for the easy achievements.
Bought for the music lol
