So much tech at our fingertips, my 80's born He-man watching ass would absolutely adore a game in this style that provided the gameplay and narrative reminiscent of ye olde Sunday morning or after school cartoon.

Wishlisted on Steam.

Yeeegh rogue lite means the game is likely very short on story which bums me out.

Maybe the dev can pull off a Hades like experience but honestly SuperGiant is floating off in their own world doing their thing, but Beamdog does have a halfway decent pedigree so we'll see.

I had fun trying the mage character last month in the demo fest but overall the gameplay didn't win me over. Maybe it is better co-op.

I'll give the demo a shot. Don't get many of those nowadays, suggests the devs have some confidence in their product at least...

Haven't tried the demo thanks to the user reviews being very mixed/more negative.

There is the heart of a decent game there but it's absurdly shallow and still dealing with technical issues.

I was sort of hoping for a campaign that felt like a season of Masters of the Universe or something but apparently it's just a perpetual dungeon crawl roguelite with no real progression or story to speak of.
