Voidigo: THIS is How You Make a Roguelite
Рет қаралды 135,359
Күн бұрынVoidigo is a game that many people describe as "underrated," and I fully agree with that sentiment. It's not the most robust Roguelite out there, but it's an incredibly well-crafted product that I think anyone who is a fan of the genre should give a try.

Stumbled into your channel after your last rougelike video was recommended to me, and I really enjoy the style and humor in your videos! Also, a (Kinda?) rougelike that I'd recommend is Get To The Orange Door, or GTTOD. It's an incredible FPS movement shooter that I've put over 100 hours in throughout a few of its major overhaul updates, but now the game has settled into a loop and feel

This game has beautiful animations, but I feel like the map color in some parts could be turned down so you can see what you are doing easier. Maybe that along with giving enemies an outline or more contrasting colors to the floor. I bet if I actually played the game the visual problems wouldn’t be noticeable after a while, not to mention how good the gameplay looks.
@sl1ppey 8 ай бұрын
It’s definitely something that you get used to after a bit. There are a few instances where I thought “wtf just hit me” but it doesn’t happen that often. Some more hectic fights like the Void Puppeteer are also balanced by individual attacks from the boss dealing less damage to account for how many attacks get thrown at you. I second enemy outlines being an option, I think that’d do nicely to contrast them from the environment.

My second run of this game was my first victory; i ran out of ammunition towards the end and ended up beating the enemy with buttons.

The developers recently made a video talking about how much difficulty they had making and funding the game, and it breaks my heart.

I discovered this game a few days ago while I was searching for a good roguelike I hadn’t seen everywhere and that is also really fun. And man, even after playing the game for about 10 hours or so, I still find it incredibly enjoyable. The animations are fantastic, the control you have on your movement is so satisfying, and the gameplay itself is impeccable. It’s been a while I haven’t seen a really fast paced focused roguelike this good, and I would totally recommend people to check it out. Give it a shot, if you don’t like it then you can just get a refund.

I've seen this game pop up on steam a few times but haven't really looked at it until this video, makes me think of dead cells a bit where at first the gameplay and even the graphics are really overwhelming until you figure out what's going on. Looks fun! On the topic of rogues with cool item mechanics, I like Blazing Beaks. It's also a top down shooter but it makes you collect bad items and hold onto them until you reach a shop, where you can trade them in for good items

as speaking from someone who has palyed the game since like it released. other options that you enjoyed weren't always there. the final boss used to just be one phase. there was no fast travel system. looping is a pretty new addition *though i'm not entirely sure. and the always zoomed out option didn't exist. Not deal breakers obviously but there were rough bits. especially if you fought a boss that was a runner the back and forth was a pace breaker. also while being a really nice change of pace for fans of the genre i'd also imagine the game is very weird at a glance lacking a lot of visual staples i think roguelites are know for.. these are just my too cents though. I know i fell in love in with the game just for having difficulity options.

I really like this game as well, although there is a single game philosophy I disagree with in the game, and that is the game punishing you for doing good Example: You have lots of hearts; you get less rewards by sacrificing them. You have lots of health; everything that drops health-replenishers are significantly reduced in drop rate, so you can't stockpile health for when you actually need it or for when there's a momma ghost, not to mention health practically being an important currency at higher difficulties. It's also annoying that you can get ragdoll trapped in a 2D game of all things

If you have any inclination to look at mobile roguelites I’d suggest looking at Soul Knight. It’s free and a mobile game so there are plenty of ways to see ads and a heaping of in-app purchases but the game is perfectly fun without buying anything. It’s kind of my default game at this point, and it’s gotten a bit grindy and repetitive as updates come out but it is still fun overall.
