“Game took everything that was annoying in the "Enter" and left out the fun parts, while putting in new mechanics that never should be here.”

“In a vacum, it'd be a decent game, but knowing that Enter the Gungeon exists, I don't know why anyone would play this overall inferior spinoff instead of the OG. Pros: -Same wacky weapons, items and enemies, if an inferior version. …”
