Played on Steam Deck OLED (Updated 1/24 post hotfix)

Moving from demo to early access has been a pleasant experience. The game is fun, albeit grindy as one would expect from a roguelite.

PROS: Great characters to play, fun level design, great weapon and movement mechanics (albeit quite unbalanced in the current state), decent mob diversity, challenges that spawn are fun and give you options so that every run is not the same, talent trees and perks grow strength/survivability while adding additional challenges.

CONS: The music repetitive, Skill balance leaves you cherry-picking the ones that work well which really sticks the RNG in your face leading to reroll hunting from chests.

Note: Skill evolutions are not automatic. You will need to put in work to flesh out your skill trees to unlock them. I suggest focusing on the God powers that apply to any character you play before focusing on the character itself. This makes for a much longer grind, but a more enjoyable experience. That said, spent points can be reallocated between runs, so if something doesn't work for you or your play style, just change it.


I have removed my comments about the Ice storm event as the issue has been hot-fixed. The speed in which the devs acted to make our experience better on the Steam Deck is exactly what I love to see from a paid early access game.

Here are my updated in-game settings for Deck:

Vsync: Off
FPS Limit: 45
Quality: Medium
Textures: Medium
Shadows: Low
Bloom: On
Ambient Occ: Medium
AA: SMAA Medium
Upscaling: Off
Gore: On

Interface Option: Damage Numbers OFF

This gives me a solid 45fps 99% of the time. Since the 1/24 hotfix, Ice Storm events are no longer an issue.
