why you should check it out:
a double dragon roguelike, with some of the smoothest and fun controls i've experienced. a wonderful and joyous art style gives the short micro stories contained within the right amount of charm. this author is a MASSIVE fan of this game and i truly feel like it captures the fun of "just one more quarter" gaming that has been missing since about 1997
why you should NOT check it out:
a bit pricey.
