FELLCHASER

It took me about half an hour to beat the game and I am impressed by this game. You are an alchemist or potion-maker who crafted a potion for your wife. Unfortunately that potion kills your wife and now you desperately try to resurrect her. Another accident occurs when you slip and hit your head while making your revival potion. You die but you're a stubborn prick so you swipe the scythe from the hands of the literal Grim Reaper. [b]The goal is to get out of Purgatory and back into the land of the living while escaping a very ticked off reaper.[/b] [b]The gameplay is based on hack-n-slash and rogue-like mechanics[/b] and roughly feels like a rigid version of Hades. You can slash and dash through enemies but [b]this game has its own unique element: [u]Potions[/u].[/b] You are given two potions which [b]you can throw at enemies as an explosive[/b] and can be [b]rechaged by hitting a certain number of attacks[/b].

Such a great game! The art is super well done and the mechanics are so fluid! Its so addicting to lose and try to run it back with a different build-type, or experiment with a potion build.

A neat little experience with a lot of nice ideas. Huge issue with audio feedback though. Enemies are near silent, no difference between when you hit vs when you miss, no sound for when you've been hit (that I could notice, anyway). Not to mention the combat having only a single track and you'll get sick of it pretty fast. Unfortunately it does become very clear what the most important stats are though. Attack speed to refill your potions, and potions which can be used quickly. Potions are the *actual* source of your damage, so every effort goes into charging those up and spamming them. It's a nice curiosity of a game, nothing you'll see fanart of or a cult following for, but I think this is a good foundation to build upon. Let's see these devs keep cooking.

I couldn't play the game yet
