Animal Survival

I have to say that when I first started playing Animal Survival I was pleasantly surprised with the game. My first two hours were playing it on stream, and I although I found it a bit challenging at first (I feel like this is a common theme for me at least with Rougelikes/Rougelites) but with some persistence I was able to get a few levels completed and I have achieved my first character unlock! The progression in the game feels good and scales well with the level, there is some challenge with picking the right power-ups to ensure you survive, and with the addition of re-rolls it's adds a bit more depth to ensuring the right build for your animal! Here are my pros and cons if you are on then fence about this game: Pros: - The progression to earn coins, and power-ups while daunting and challenging at first, ends up being really rewarding when you finally get enough coins to purchase new animals and power-ups. - The animals special power-ups suit and fit the animal you are playing as (I.E. the Turtle has a shell spin attack) - The level design and the enemies in the level are well thought out, designed well and implemented with care and forethought to ensure that the area y…

I may have received this game for free, but this is a game that I would purchase if I had to. The game has a lot of potential, in it's mechanics and play-style, it's inspired by games like Vampire Survivors which really got my attention, there are a few QoL features that could highly improve the game, but overall, I think if you like Vampire Survivors or Megabonk, you should check this out! You can tell that the dev has put a lot of time and effort into this game, all on their own. Was a pleasure testing this game out today, look forward to seeing the updates in the future!

The developer for this game reached out and asked me to check this out. - At first, the native controls felt a little unintuitive and clunky, but changing the keybinds made it way better for me. - The art style is fairly simplistic and the animations can use some work, but it holds a certain charm. - The music and sound effects are endearing. - The core gameplay loop seems to have a solid foundation, providing a strong framework for a traditional roguelike. For how simple the game presents itself, the challenge level seems pretty high, even on Easy, which makes progression feel all the more rewarding. Overall, I think this is definitely a game worth checking out. Hopefully we'll see a community Discord in the future where we can interact together as players and share feedback with the developer to help them grow the game further.
