Sidescroller Shooter Platformer Roguelike | Corebreaker Demo Gameplay
Hello everyone! Here we are with another demo part of the Steam Next Fest. Corebreaker is a sidescroller shooter platformer roguelike, where you go clearing enemies from room to room, finding upgrades and weapons 'till you get to the boss. The idea sounds like an effective action roguelike, and for some time it is, but the limitations of your attacks made the experience unexpectedly frustrating for me. You can only shoot forward, and most enemies fly, so most of the time you will have to be searching for an angle to shoot at them while avoiding the contact damage. You can with a dash and two types of slam attacks that can be used for vertical attacks, but the cooldown is long and if you miss or some enemies won't get killed by it, you will suffer unavoidable damage.
Also, not a big fan of the "only one weapon mechanic", making it so you can't even change to your default weapon once you find a good one (forcing you to use the good weapon even against basic enemies).
Good idea and potential for a good game, but I couldn't enjoy it on its current state.
