I like stylish cyberpunk games. The visual effects in this one are particularly good, one of the coolest looking in games period.

But here are some of my gripes for developers, because my god this game is flawed:

- Never make a gun that teleports you when you fire. You sure are big fans of Nuclear Throne. Is there a gun that teleports you? No, and that's the point.

- You used some of Vlambeer's tricks for impactful action. Explosions, "sleep" frames and so on. But they never told you to make your screen busy with everything. All the effects, flashes, debris are cool for style, but not for gameplay. Make it freakin easier to see where the loot is! Foreground and background are blending together!

- 0-bit visual style of upgrade/curse images just doesn't fit the overall style of the game

- Risk of Rain sure has timer. Risk of Rain is a good game, but games with timers in general are not.

- Stealing the Syndicate's font is not cool
