    I got this when it was still an early access kind of thing on Steam as I thought it was a cool idea and wanted to support it. When I asked about the possibility of controller support (there was none in the first few months of the game's life cycle) the dev told me to "go f**k myself."

When I asked about the possibility of controller support (there was none in the first few months of the game's life cycle) the dev told me to "go f**k myself." The thin-skinned babyman that mostly developed this game went on to make a name for himself on the Steam forums by basically just acting like an idiot any time even the most minor criticism of the game was made. And, in the end, the game was never improved beyond just the barest minimum it needed to get a full release. Don't support these devs or their crap games.… Expand

    It’s simply too unforgiving to keep your attention. Menu issues, lack of story, and difficulty aside, it feels like the Xbox One port was almost an afterthought and done on a whim, resulting in a forgettable experience.

    Though the gameplay itself is fun, the lack of any balance to the difficulty at early stages of the game — even on the easiest difficulty — is maddening.

    What started as a mostly unpleasant experience, turned into one of the most fiendishly fun yet difficult games I've played in a very long time. When I got over my bad case of Gamers Ego, I learned to roll with the punches the game dealt me and tried harder. I discovered little exploits I could use to take down some harder monsters a bit easier. I learned how to use weapons properly and which items stack with each other to make powerful builds.
