do you think they have strap ons in hell, i hope so for dantes sake3 found this helpful
The game is amazing and i utterly love it with all 350 grams of my heart. Unfortunaly my friend (who plays Blood Angels) has heard Virgil say "Horace" and flew into a homicidal rage yelling "HOOOORUS I KNOW YOU RE HERE YOU TRAITOR, HORUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUS". Now i lie in hospital bed with 5 broken ribs, broken leg and almost ruptured liver, my room is ruin and my friend has been aprehended by the law enforcement.1 found this helpful
A gorgeous game filled with art and gameplay crafted with love, I can't wait to see what awaits Dante in Hell ! Good luck Astral Shift and everyone involved in the project, and thank you for working on this game !1 found this helpful
Oh my god. I know it's early access but this is the best survivors style game I've ever played from a gameplay standpoint. I love the card system, combining them and all that. I feel like there's more they can do with it, like combining weapon card stacks would be super cool to make a new weapon, but even if not, what's there is super fun. The game could use a lot more content, like I hope each Circle gets more modes and difficulties to give the game meat. The music though.. is unbelievably good. Brings me back to the 90s, reminds me of Castlevania SotN and other stuff like that. I love the visuals too. This game is gonna be something special when it's finished. I hope it doesn't actually take 6 months per content update? Not that they announced it will be the TBD for the fourth circle not being slated for 2026 has me worried. One year won't be enough to finish the game if that's the case.1 found this helpful
Every second of this game is filled with so much passion its insane, the Art and Music are already worth the 10 bucks. My only real non bug related complaint is how big the card pool is, every poet being at like a 20% chance of popping up really doesn't let you snowball their status/niche. Needless to say, I will be here for every content update for sure.
I've always been a heavy recommender of Little Goody Two Shoes and Vampire Survivors, so when I saw the creator of LGTS made a bullet heaven, it was a no brainer. This game takes the Vampire Survivors formula, adds a ton of neat ideas and adds some pretty intense boss fights. Not everyone will love this. I know for a fact a lot of people won't. But this scratches my brain in all of the right ways, so I recommend giving it a shot while it's $10 in early access, assuming the price will raise when it's complete.
