seems a little... off

every enemy shoots DIRECTLY AT YOU and you can only slide forward or backwards??

how are you meant to dodge anything if you can only move along the bullets path :|

This is definitely a mouse and keyboard game, as movement good movement is only possible forward and backwards, meaning you have to flick you aim 90 degrees to move perpendicular and 90 degrees to shoot while doing so. These optimal movements aren’t possible on a joystick so i understand why you’ve been frustrated.

ya. it's possible on controller, it just feels real clunky.
also there's slowmo when aiming in midair, which the game doesn't tell you anywhere...

You clearly just don't know how to move. Figure it out before you project your weakness lmao.

im so confused, have you never heard of early access man? theyve already announced sideways sliding and stuff, just wait till the games full release if your too much of a baby to handle a few issues

maybe you haven't heard of what early access is for? it's for gathering feedback... also they tested sideways sliding and said no because it would be OP. but they can still add some sideways mobility.

stop whining and learn the mechanics

Dan just get good mate, it's a rogue like. Welcome to the genre! The game is fun af

being a roguelike is no excuse for enemies being unfair/badly balanced.
also this is FAR from my first roguelike.
games should feel good to play regardless of genre.

ye... not doing that. it's already hard enough to aim.

how do i unlock new guns? the start guns are both pretty worthless after the first shop.

--EDIT--
- the health curve on any enemy that isnt just a basic crab is way too steep, it shouldn't take more than 2 shotgun blasts to kill 1 enemy that chases you unrelenting in a straight line toward you firing scattershot explosive projectiles.
- unlocking a gun should have instructions.
- the unlocked weapons need a different colour glow to indicate they are unlocked.
- sideways movement needs a TON of work... it feels awful for an arena shooter.
- maybe consider increasing the dual shotguns' base fire rate... i didnt take any "slower firing" upgrades and i couldnt even alternate them.
- the ammo counter for dual shotguns is broken.
- damage/danger indicators would be nice.
- change the colour of the explosive/fire rocks to be more noticeable at a distance (both look orange) maybe make explosive rocks black with red cracks or something.
- parkour stages just aren't fun. too many launch pads that dont even land on the island they are pointed to.

You are simply not good at this genre. Dodging and using the ADS to slow your momentum = guaranteed dodge and so is side dashing mid air. If you dont want to go forward or backward just move your camera to the side and slide in that direction its very simple. I have consistent nightmare runs easily with almost any weapon and have cleared up to island 100.

The enemies anticipates where you will move and will shoot accordingly just like in Risk of Rain or hell most roguelike works this way.

You say it's all RNG I say get good because you can literally stand in front of an any elites and with the right minimal movement can dodge all its sprays and random patterns.

You want to unlock guns. Beat stage 10, 20, 30 for keys and spend them in the lobby to unlock weapons. After unlocking all weapons you will unlock perks, weapon mods and grenade mods (the game is in extreme early access so chill out and let them do their thing and yet you're the only one I see complaining about lack of instruction in a damn simple roguelike).

Learn to move super fast everywhere and be accurate that's the only way you will ever beat higher difficulties and push forward. You think this hard and unfair?! Don't ever play Risk of Rain 2 on eclipse you will always die stage one.

The starting weapons are really not as bad as you think they are. Dual shotgun is absolutely busted in the right hands even without the awesome perks to make you broken has hell. You can also easily clear any difficulty with a simple melee build which you need 2 perks Big Claws and Sharp Claws. Just play the game, master it's mechanics, understand which perks are great and which are meh considering what type of weapon of playstyle you are aiming for and just freakin' adapt. The game was hard for me at 1st and after 10 hours I was beating nightmare like it was nothing.

sideways movement doesn't need to be the slide... it could be a simple side flip or even a little nudge/short slide.

[Jess]

your just describing the 8 directional dashing they announced?
