This is a first feedback from a short play of released version and a full play of an Early Access version that was quite advanced and totally playable.

It's a very fun Roguelike game with a team of characters. That's very rare for Roguelike games because it requires control multiple characters. But a mix of design elements makes it work very well. It's very surprising how light the play is despite you control 4 characters. Also the team aspect gives it a lot of originality and helps reinforce the depth.

Another noteworthy element is how the game evokes Spacehulk/Alien, that's great.

About Steampunk, look yourself the snapshots, it's very light, so don't really search that in the game.

About about random range and diversity, it's here, enough to make a play enough different to another, and to keep the surprise which is an important element of the gameplay. But if my experience of Early Access is still valid, and additions hadn't changed it deeply, then the range of variations isn't huge like some of the biggest Roguelike. It's solid random and fair range of diversity of random, but don't expect much more. It's still enough to makes it a true Roguelike.

Overall its key words are, very fun Roguelike, light play, good depth, team, Spacehulk/Alien.
