Keep an eye out for this one! Very cool from what I've played so far, and an added level of nostalgia for us more mature gamers 😅🎮

I picked up a physical of this ‘Vampire Survivors-like’ that looked incredibly retro and like a new take on the formula by @bhesslau.bsky.social at PaxEast. I’ll try it out on stream one of these days and see how it is! The art style grabbed me. (๑ゝω╹๑)
