It's criminal how little attention this little indie gem out of Australia is getting - it's like vampire survivors meets doom eternal with super tight gameplay and a very satisfying gameplay loop.

However.... it's definitely catered to the hardcore gamer; it's incredibly challenging and the controls take some time to master, but once you do.. it's hands down the best twin stick shooter i've ever plaeyd

also runs very well on steam deck

PC only?

 

[Punished Miku]

I wishlisted it a couple weeks ago. Still dont know a ton about it but it looks cool.

 

[Chuck Berry]

Is this on consoles?

Just had a look on Steam and the trailer has the logos for consoles as well. Check the stores.

Cool. It definitely looks great. I’ll check the PS store tonight.

 

[A.Romero]

It looks pretty good, OP. Thanks for the recommendation. First time I hear about it but added to my steam wishlist. I'll have some time this weekend so I'll get to play it.

 

[GHG]

Just impulse bought this based on the trailer and reviews alone.

Will try on the steam deck on bed later, hopefully I enjoy it.

Thanks for highlighting 12Goblins

Let us know if it's good!

 

[nikos]

Played it for a bit. Got my ass kicked at first but it quickly started to click and I immediately saw the potential.

Need to get the hang of the controls, then I'm sure it's going to be a ton of fun. Kept switching between mouse & keyboard and controller. I prefer M&K but twin stick shooters can sort of go either way.

 

[Bombolone]

Looks great. I have been in the mood for a tight gameplay experience that fits the budget.
Have been playing The Ascent.
Will check it out on the weekend, thanks OP.

 

[TommyCronin6969]

Isometric Doom Eternal

 

[OverHeat]

The game is the bomb!!’

 

[RagnarokIV]

is it a souls-like?

 

[yansolo]

i played a bit but didn't like it, too many mechanics and buttons to remember.

 

[Icymanipulator]

Challenging twin stick shooter? Can’t believe I haven’t heard of this. Nice post! Looking this up now

 

[VeganElduderino]

I wislisted it , looks cool! I love a good twinstick shooter

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

Looks great, will pick it up at some point. Something about the aesthetic immediately reminded me of Loaded and it's sequel ReLoaded on PS1, wonder how many are familiar with it lol.

Game is fucking legit. Everyone buy it.

The mechanics are so fucking tight, it's one of those flow state games where once you find your rhythm you feel locked in.

Biggest recommendation I have is for everyone to do the tutorial before diving in to the main game, if not you won't have a clue about the various mechanics or what you're doing. There are quite a few different elements to get to grips with, so take it step by step.

On first impressions I wouldn't say it's difficult, but looking at the high scores there's a very high skill ceiling here.

 

[RCX]

Looks fantastic, just bought it. Seems perfect for the deck.

Loved Loaded pretty sure I bought it day 1, such a good game. Wonder how well its aged?

You're one of the few who do then lol. Yeah, bought it and the sequel day 1, with all the PS1 classics that have been releasing on PSN I have hopes we'll eventually get it. Flawed games but there was something about them I found compelling

My memory of it is a little foggy now but I remember there was a character with a laser style gun you could upgrade until the width of the beam was massive. Really satisfying stuff.

 

[Cyberpunkd]

Im kinda getting an arcade itch, so it’s either getting back to Vampire Survivors, getting Deep Rock Survivor or this.

 

[GMAK2442]

Interesting but no I will pass.

 

[peek]

Anyone get it on ps5? Wana know it performs with controller and how stable fps. Looks fun

Yes I did and everything runs smoothly

 

[Life Diff]

To be fair there is like 15 billion games added to steam each year, if it wasn't for Gaf a lot of these indie games would never be on my radar

 

[peek]

Hell yeah thanks

 

[MudoSkills]

I completely glossed over it, but seeing positive things here and elsewhere it's now firmly on the radar.

Doing good works. Bless.

 

[NT80]

I was impressed with the demo a little while back. Didn't realize the full game had come out.
It puts me in mind of another underappreciated gem that's also brutal and in depth called Okinawa Rush.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Saw something on this last night but I was too tired to look into it. Looks cool!

 

[DelireMan7]

Looks very interesting.

Any multiplayer mode ? Local coop ?

 

[RCX]

About an hour in. It's hard as fuck but very very fun. Great gameplay loop and switching attacks feels really good.

 

[Hohenheim]

Tried it for a little while but didn't quite feel it, sadly.
I love stuff like Vampire Survivors and Isaac btw.
