The Loot Rascals Steam page describes some of the gameplay attributes as follows:
"Loot Rascals"
http://store.steampowered.com/app/443880/
"Only you can rescue Big Barry - your huge robot head pal - from a space theme park that’s been invaded by a tentacled pan-dimensional godbeast.
Explore an alien planet, beat a menagerie of strange baddies and win Loot Cards which give you special abilities. Choosing which to equip requires strategic thinking - the way you lay them out is crucial, and some must be sacrificed because cards are also the precious resources you need to heal and use powerful abilities.
Careful though because baddies can loot you! The cards they steal drop into other players’ games. When you defeat an Elite Baddie you’ll get another player’s card: will you return it or keep it for yourself?
Either way, prepare for a visit from that player's Holographic Helper to shower you with thanks or terrible vengeance - Loot Rascals is a tale of friendship, loss, and redemption!
Every game is different in this procedurally generated roguelike: gather Loot Cards, show the Thing Below who’s boss, and fly Big Barry to victory!"

The Loot Rascals factsheet from Loot Rascals developer Hollow Ponds has more Loot Rascals tips and information:
"Loot Rascals: Factsheet:
http://lootrascals.com/lootrascals/press/
"Loot Rascals is a tale of friendship, loss and redemption in outer space... It’s a roguelike set on a hostile alien world, where you’ll play as the survivor of a rocket crash, trying to escape this planet...
The game has two main components: First off you are exploring the planet, revealing its hexagonal surface, and fighting a menagerie of strange aliens, monsters and robots. Defeating them will win you Loot Chips - a set of schematic cards from which you get all of your abilities.
Arranging these cards in your HUD to create your character’s build is the second major aspect of the game - much of the strategy comes from deciding which cards to keep - which will determine how you’ll approach the various hostile situations on the planet - and which ones you’ll convert into the precious resources you’ll need to heal up and fight your way to freedom.
But that wouldn't make a decent tale of friendship, loss and redemption would it now?
When you die in Loot Rascals, you will be looted by the enemies! And when that happens, the cards they steal are beamed up and will drop into someone else’s game. Defeating strong enemies will get you a card belonging to someone else - which was looted from them earlier by that baddie. Baddies only steal the best loot chips so you will be faced with a choice to keep it for yourself or send it back to the player who lost it.
That choice however will have big consequences. Every player in Loot Rascals has a Holographic Agent - a computer controlled copy of themselves who can visit other people’s games. If you decide to hang on to another player’s card, you may find yourself faced with their angry Hologram, trying to kill and loot you. Or, if you did right by them, and sent back their card, perhaps their Hologram will turn up to help you for a while…
Loot Rascals will be available on Playstation 4 & PC in early 2017."
