gameplay is an improvement (somehow) on hotline miami. great aesthetic and sound design. I wish there was more but that is the best complaint one can hope for

If you like hurting people, play Hotline Miami (2).

If you enjoy action roguelites, build variety, and want a shitload of guns to try out, play SYNTHETIK.

If you fancy some bullet time, play the original Max Payne or F.E.A.R.

OTXO is fun for the first couple of hours but doesn't hold together well enough to be played over and over like you would expect from a roguelite. All runs start to feel exactly the same way too soon.

OTXO is one of the few roguelites I ever finished, but it feels way simpler compared to others in its genre. I generally agree with people when they say it gains very little from being one, but I still found reason to finish it. The background story is... strange, I really feel like it's not present enough to bear bringing up in the actual game, the drinks system is fine but can feel a bit arbitrary, the gunplay rules and the music is great, but after completing one run I don't think I'm going to do so again.
