Ball X Pit is out and it's great

This is already my favorite vampire survivor like after 2h. It's also different enough from vampire survivors that you might like it even if you dont usually like them.

Also great bosses from what i've seen so far.
 
I wish I liked the demo more, but it just didn't click with me. It should be right up my alleyway as I love Breakout and Breakout clones.
 
Fuck wrong forum. Can a mod move it?

I liked the demo okay, but $15 seems a little steep for what this is - unless they've added a ton more stuff to the game since the demo.

EDIT: I guess the bundle with Vampire Survivors (which I own) takes the price down a bit. $10 is where I would land on this one I think.

Copying from the other thread since I just saw this one.

Ball x Pit is up. Fun little game so far. Pretty simplistic, almost like Vampire Survivors. Very short gameplay loop shooting enemies similar to breakout with a constant stream of power ups. Then spend resources at the base.

Seems like a decent 7/10 so far. Not a ton of strategy to it honestly. Just shoot the ball, mostly on auto-shoot. Most you can really do is launch it behind the front row so it bounces and hits multiple enemies

Update: maybe a 6/10 lol. I'm on run 4 and honestly a bit bored already.

Update #2: still in it. Seeing the varied power ups is addicting.

Played it, beat the first level after 3 tries, and I am quite enjoying it. I am not a fan of base building in general, but this seems pretty mild so far, so I hope it doesn't get too deep.

Gameplay is good, items seems varied and fun, graphics are good though I turned off all the effects like CRT, pixel text etc

Never heard of it before, so I actually tried the Steam demo first and then bought it. Price feels about fair, especially as a bundle if you own the other game in it. Been some great roguelikes in the past month or so too, Clover Pit and Drop Pockets to name just 2.
 
saw it pop up on game pass and gave it a go via cloud; pretty cool, feels far more intense than vampire survivors because you will get damage if you can't kill fast enough.
I don't really care for the harvesting shit though.
 
Loved the demo, bought it right away on release yesterday. And while the actual gameplay is amazing, I'm still not a fan of the base building part. Maybe it'll grow on me, but right now it's just as boring and uninteresting as in the demo.

I just wanna get out there and throw some balls.
