Absolutely one of my favorite Roguelites. The art is fantastic, the weapons are all fun and unique and the builds you can make get frankly absurd. The localization could use more work but for the most part it does the job just fine. If you want a Roguelite that wants you to break it this is a great one for that.
The best roguelite FPS out there. Core gameplay is fun and there's a lot of opportunities to make wacky but highly effective builds. The main thing holding this back is the poor-quality translation, meaning it's pretty slow to process information as you have to navigate awkward sentences, and very occasionally a description is totally incomprehensible. Some loading screen lines are also not translated at all.
There are 2 things that makes this game superior to the bajillion other co-op roguelike shooters: 1. Weapon variety. Most similar games usually have only 5-8 other weapon types where you start with 1 or 2 and the others take dozens of hours to tediously unlock. This game has over 60 weapons and you will likely unlock at least a dozen within only a couple first runs. This makes every run feel different and interesting. 2. Bot teammates. Co-op games are typically extremely grindy when playing solo so being able to add bots to your party has a very significant impact. If there is anything I dislike about the game it would be how some bosses have that annoying mechanic where they go offscreen/invincible multiple times throughout the fight to fill the arena with mobs and reappear after killing the mobs. This a common enough mechanic in games so it might not even be worth complaining about, but it's a pet peeve of mine. It is also a bit annoying how long it takes to unlock new characters, but it's not a big problem since the gunplay matters more than the character abilities.
