As a summarized rating, I'd rate the game about average from a ten scoring system, it has nice retro 8bit snes style aesthetic, and the co-op for me saved it a lot. Affordability helps for terms of it's cost, lowering expectation. It's score 6, but I expect that to go up if the game is polished in terms of enemy balance ( Mushroom enemies) But if you're a fan of roguelikes, and looking for something to play, and have money to spend. I'd have bought it.

This game is cute, it has a nice aesthetic, but it isn't all great. The sound design could use more love, but for its price it's actually quite good. I'd especially recommend it, to play with a friend, especially using "Remote Play Together" with steam. I had a decent time. Although I admit, my attention span does not stick to things well, I got a few hours of enjoyment from it.

It plays more like a traditional roguelike, with class unlocks available to you as you progress further into the game. There is cosmetics that appear much the same under various conditions, the length of the game overall isn't very long, the controls are a little strange at first. But the experience for me was best played on a controller.

The camera is a bit weird and takes some getting used to when starting the game in multiplayer, and there is definitely same balancing and QoL adjustments I think that can be made to the game in terms of accessibility. Some enemies are a bit to difficult for me to handle, and maybe that was just my experience. It is pretty easy to get strong, but with my playstyle, being slow-paced, and careful movement. It was still pretty easy to die, if I made a heinous mistake, or got to cocky.

Still, I liked the game enough to play it for 2 hours, however I also received the key for free, streamed it, reviewed it essentially. I was actually looking to buy the game anyway, but I got lucky with an opportunity to try it out, and experience it.
