Demon Strikes Back

It's a neat little game, just too reflex intensive for me. You're demon hoping to restore parts of his village through continued runs to monster realms and probably eventually the human world (you can also unlock a ranged character, but having to aim with where the mouse is facing was challenging enough with the default melee one). You beat groups of enemies - sometimes as small as 3 - and get resources and healing...

Not the best roguelike RPG I've played, but certainly worth playing nonetheless. + Runs are short and fun + Lots of stuff to upgrade - Achievements are glitchy - I encountered a few bugs during my playthroughs - Combat sometimes feels sluggish and tedious - Super difficult, even on casual difficulty.

It's a little buggy, but none of it is game breaking. It's a little grindy, but possible without the grind. It's a little game, but the ambition behind making something decent paid off. Every enemy in the game has a clear weakness and moment to attack. Your roll is how you avoid damage, and the attacks are *mostly* well telegraphed. You can play as a ranged character or a melee character. I prefer the melee...
