    I decided to give this one a try. Getting straight to the point the game is decent in the grand scheme but currently needs a lot of work before I can fully support it. It’s a roguelike STG which in my opinion is somewhat hard to nail down considering the nature of randomness and what the developer decides to make procedurally generated. I’ve 1CCed the game on the hardest difficulty and found it to be very generous…

    Played two runs so far and Hopeless Sea has a solid start. The perk system, in general, provides meaningful choices for planning your builds. It's the backbone of what makes a good roguelite fun. Choosing a character and getting to choose various primary and secondary weapons works well, feels good, and makes each run feel intentional for exploring your shmup playstyles. The music leans into upbeat chiptune vibes…
