Fun game. It definitely is a work in progress, but has a clear vision on what it wants to be. The game was easy to pick up even without a tutorial. Combining risk of rain and vampire survivors was creative and worked well together. The only things I would recommend is some more polish and a few more features (more abilities, new enemies, etc).

This was super fun! Felt a bit unfinished and definitely has a lot of room for polish, I fell off the edge of the map a couple times and had to restart, but overall it was a very fun game! Just needs more content! Keep going with it!

Short but fun. Inspired by Risk of Rain. Very simple. Has problems with clipping and texturing but besides that works as a concept.

I can see the vision and I think if this is hones well it can be good but in it's current state it's an enjoyable like 5-10min
