About Descentium

Descentium is a Rogue-lite First Person Shooter, in which you fight through hordes of monsters from another world, who have surfaced from deep within a Cambodian temple. Unlock amalgamated weapons, scientific trinkets and more as you discover secrets about those who came before you and the origins of the mysterious element... Descentium.

As Alina, you will wield the power of the rifts and weapons corrupted by their touch. Push through the temple to find the source of this incursion, while growing stronger, revealing the temple's secrets and the downfall of those that came before you with every run.
The void is ever shifting and uncertain, choose from a range of boons that will enhance your abilities and customize your weapon with a variety of upgrades. There is a broad range of builds to discover in order to fit the play style you want.
A new challenge awaits as you step through the portal each time into a randomly generated sequence of arena style rooms. Use the Descentium Fabricator to create permanent upgrades and add new temporary buffs to the ritual tables and portals, giving yourself the advantage the next time you explore the temple.What Steam players say

Descentium shows promise, but it's clearly unfinished. Animations are laughable, most things don't have any sound and the tutorial makes things sound more convoluted than they actually are. Enemies sometimes get stuck in terrain and my first run ended because an enemy spawned right on top of me and I got stuck. The second weapon is OP as it has uncapped fire rate, even though it's clearly not supposed to. There's even a typo on top of everything else. Even for 5€ I can't recommend it at its current state.3 found this helpful
[code]Written By Hidden Gems Review : https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38624426/, Follow me! [/code] Descentium is a FPS/Roguelite game. Descentium is a very fun game to play with a solid gunplay BUT... There too many bugs and 2 of them are gamebreaking, one the game just crash and bye bye to your progress on the run and the other the monster is stuck in the gate and you can't kill it... so make you click on.. "end the run". For a roguelite that you need farm this crystals it's really bad when the run stop suddenly because of them. The roguelite part you can unlock 1 extra weapon and some perks that... don't feel much of a boost on the character looks like the same everything so the progress mostly it's about how skilled you than the increase of stats on the character. Sadly have to put a thumbs down even if I like the gunplay - -2 found this helpful
This game is full of bugs and typos with very little to show for it. The second unlockable weapon is absurdly broken due to having an uncapped fire rate, the stim is by far the best item since it allows you to replenish 30hp for free each level (otherwise you can only recover health if you get lucky enough to find an upgrade area, and it costs to heal), each level feels the same with no visual differences, the enemies are simultaneously too easy and too hard (melee enemies are easy to avoid, the ranged guys can be unpredictable and really annoying), every boss fight is incredibly easy, the dash is way better than the grappling hook (it's even possible to go out of bounds with it pretty easily), it's a bad idea to unlock new door types because it reduces the chance you'll get the two different descentium doors which are way better than every other door (more currency).... I can keep going, but it should be pretty clear that this game has incredibly major core design issues. It ends incredibly abruptly too, the last boss has no real buildup, dies, and then the credits instantly roll. It feels like this is the first step of a bigger project. This feels like an early alpha demo for …2 found this helpful

This game can be completed quite quickly but even thought it short its it fun to play. Whiles you play the game you can unlock different power ups that will appear on your next play through and change how you can play.2 found this helpful
A fun little game for passing the time. The environments and assets are pretty to look at, and games with parkour mechanics are an old favourite of mine. I'd say give this a chance, if you're wanting something new to play.1 found this helpful
