I like how it looks and sounds, but it gets a bit repetitive.
too hard for me and too confusing idk i like the idea but its just fucking frustrating to die over and over
Joguinho gostosinho de jogar. A mecânica de tiro é mt legal e o som e efeitos é fofinho demais, mas tbm é desafiador. Ainda não zerei, mas pretendo!
solid mechanics
Good start and then falls to the ground
It's not a terrible roguelike. It has a lot of style, which goes a long way, and the gameplay is simple but feels pretty good. You run around weird proc gen caverns and shoot down enemies with guns which are satisfying to spray projectiles with. That all is good, but it's got a core problem: It's a roguelike, and doesn't hook you well enough to get you invested. The minimalistic presentation, while an asset aesthetically, also makes the game more impenetrable, which exacerbates this. Too bad!
fun,cool music and art style
Musiquinha massa, e divertido
Played this live on stream on the 23rd of March (twitch.tv/sleepy_nice, come thru).
Total banger of a game, but might just be a little too hard for me to get much further through than what I've already seen. The dynamic of GoNNER rewards speed but punishes imprecision, and is a teensy bit too stressful for me - it's in my nature to try and rack up combos to collect the glyphs but I'm not able to balance that impulse with precise movement.
Loved the feel of everything, the jumps and the guns and the wall-jumping are all really finely tuned. Love the painterly style and the way the levels build around you as you traverse through them. I liked how little was communicated to you, letting you learn as a player what you're meant to be doing as you experiment. I would have appreciated a LITTLE bit more information when it came to certain masks or accessories, because the thrill of discovery was marred a little bit by the chance you had to take on a new item when you're already in the middle of a run.
There are still a couple mechanical mysteries to me. For instance, on my last run (where I managed to get the furthest I've been able to reach, just past the 2nd boss room and into level 3) I got such a good combo going that the colour scheme of the rooms changed to green. I'm not sure what that meant! It might have meant nothing.
But yeah, highly recommend giving this game a whirl but I'm still learning to be any good at it. Let's see if I ever get there.

Roguelike divertidísimo. No soy especialmente hábil en este tipo de juegos y me ha parecido muy accesible para los nuevos. Es un juego que recomendaría a alguien que quisiese probar el género, aunque creo que a cualquier jugador experimentado se le quedaría corto.
I think now that GoNNER 2 is out, I likely won't be picking this back up unless it's to convince myself whether or not to get its sequel.
It's fun and kinetic, and very stressful in a good way, but ultimately there isn't enough roguelite meta progression, or roguelike depth and mystery, to keep me coming back for more than a few rounds at a time.

Beautiful and cool, but just not fun.
I bought this game on a whim when I was browsing the Switch eShop one day, and it quickly became one of my favorites in my library.
It's not the most innovative rogue-liite in terms of gameplay (not even a particularly innovative action platformer) but where it does innovate is in presentation and art direction.
I get lost in this game, it just sucks me in. The atmosphere, the simple designs, the complete lack of text. Depending on how I like the second one I might just forget about it and come back to finish the original.

Arte muito bonitinha e fofa, história bacana, apesar de não ter acabado. O próprio jogo auto-se zoa e eu acho isso muito bom, além do jogo é claro.
I’m a sucker for really tight platformers like this
The way you transition from level to level is by getting vored by a little lizard thing and then shat out in the next section
Fun little roguelite
i rolled this for a CE achievement but it was actually really fun. the sequel is better but this is still fun too
wow this is a really innovative roguelike sidescrolling shooter tbh. the idea that you get to regain your body parts after being shot is creative and the game itself is punishing, and i love the aesthetic and the sound effects here.
An aesthetically pleasing spin on a simplistic platform shooter that makes you think of every move. The random terrain generation mixed with illuminous platforms forces you to tackle one problem at a time. Sometimes it's wise to wait and think, while others you have to act quickly and get rewarded for doing so. The loadout system is simple but allows enough choice for strategizing while also being a good pick-me-up upon death. Using currency as both respawns and purchases allows you to really value the worth of a run. It could use more substance in enemy/item variety but ultimately a great game to pick up when in need of instant engagement.
really cool. i wish it was actually fun to play
Lovely colours, but it's not paint, it's glue, and it's holding all the buttons in all the wrong places, and it's slippery to the touch
weird one.
Incredibly smooth gamefeel + colorful, charming, minimalist graphics + varied styles of play work to create a flow state (egged on by the combo mechanic), hitting that sweet spot between relaxing and challenging. I suspect I'll be playing this game fairly regularly for a while to come.
Still need to try the sequel.

Great for a spell but not much replayability. Charming as hell art direction.
Una de estas cosas que tienes en el backlog sin saber porque, tiene una estética interesante que demasiadas veces hace que la acción sea demasiado confusa, pero en general, es un buen roguelike con algunas mecánicas interesantes, en especial en cuanto desbloqueas unos cuantos items y puedes trastear un poco mas con los loadouts entre runs.
Su estética y música me gustan mucho, además que es un tipo de videojuego que no se ve últimamente. Una lastima que el como esta diseñado su segundo mundo y el uso de ciertos items/equipamientos inútiles impidieron que me gustase más.
