Thank you so much for covering our game! We really enjoyed watching you play and have such a positive response, especially having watched you play lots and lots of games in this genre. Your video helped us reach a lot of people and the feedback so far has been great and quite useful!
Glad you enjoyed my video! Will your demo be around after the Next Fest? Because I'd gladly come back for more as soon as my schedule clears up a bit. If it won't be staying up, feel free to email me the moment it's available again!
@@wanderbots Yeah, we're leaving it up for the foreseeable future. Thanks again for the interest!

How long till you release the full game btw??
@@rohan7427 A few months or so, can't say for certain.
edit: oh, sorry , that's for Early Access. Full game.. depends. Longer.
@@RealmArchive oof can't wait
Taking the Vampire Survivors formula and layering on more player agency, diablo-style loot and Hades style narrative delivery and boons sounds like a winning combination to me. This looks like a blast, and I will definitely be checking itout!
The fact that there is no contact damage is really good
Ngl I was sold on this game with just 5 min gameplay. It looks like it feels more interactive then other BH
Melee focused and manual attacking? Sounds great.
Also that's some very pretty pixel art.
Edit: after watching a bit more, I do wish they'd make manual attacks meaningfully different from auto attacks in other bullet heavens. Currently it looks like you'd want to spam attacks as fast as possible at all time, which is just auto attacks with extra steps.
Otherwise this looks very promising for a demo.
I thought the same, but then it became clear you don't always want to attack since it slows you down. It's a nice way to balance it
@@IottiPH agreed against the boss in the demo to its better to stop attacking and move around a bit to dodge the arrows or you will die very fast so you can't attack spam especially against armored enemies.
"What is the greatest thing in life?"
"To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of the women"
I really enjoy these Horde Survival games. Its also really nice to see all the different permutations and different mechanics being tried. I've wanted one that does an ARPG look/itemization system, so this one looks quite interesting for sure.
Pretty sure the mage char has less hp/armor than the knight, thats why it looks like she takes more damage from hits, its either the hp bar doesn't represent the hp ammount correctly or ther is a hidden armor value.
3:19 Oh GOD! Death killed Pepsiman and turned him against us!! WE'RE DOOOOOOOOMMMMMEED!!!!😱😱😱
Love the casual gait of the main character, just strolling along slashin at things.
This melding of different game mechanics is surprisingly smooth. Got behind games being best when doing one thing well but I'm pleased to be incorrect.
Armored warrior "guess if I'm going to die" opens one last drink.
This game looks awesome. Have tried multiple games in this genre and always go back to VS because it's so insanely giggle-inducing but the persistent gear progression in this looks quite compelling. Glad the demo will remain available after Next Fest, so I'll get a chance to play it.
I love how this looks
The art look great
it seems at least a bit more creative then other games in this genre
plus it has some challenge, something that not all games in this field has, I'm quite heavily anticipating the release of this
(Another great looking game I've found thanks to wander into my wishlist)
Wow this really hits my spot, i'm hooked to it already.
Hades was the best Roguelike i played in my entire life and then there is the bulmet hell genre which i love so much....
This is PERFECT i'm so excited🔥🔥
I love it when you get to choose your next boob and the music is getting muffled, hit me right into my hades mermories!
Keep it u!!
I've spent so much time on this demo. I can't even imagine what the full game will be. Keep up the great work and hope we see more updates soon :)
When the big knight character goes down: crack open a boy with the cold ones.
Now we wait for the much awaited sequel "Orcs must orc"
The game looks incredibly cool! There are diablo like shrines around the map so you need to do some exploring !
21:39 they should have called her Ysabell
after Ysabell Sto Helit Deaths Daughter in the Discworld novels
or Susan, Death's Granddaughter
Eyyy! I was just thinking that. Especially given Mort is Death's name. (Hinted at when the character Mort, Death's apprentice, was introduced to War and he hinted that it was appropriate.)
The knock back is also lifted from hades. The blue bar of shield blocks stuns and knock back like yellow health in hades. That's why the chargers couldn't be stunned because they had a ton of shield hp.
Have you found the shrines yet? They are very helpful, you just gotta look around the map.
I must say this game looks and feels amazing to play!
It definitely has a lot of potential and room to expand further with the Diablo style items and the Hades style boon synergies.
Keep up the great work
Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of the women.
Damnit Wander!!! STOP PLAYING REALLY AWESOME LOOKING GAMES THAT I END UP DOWNLOADING.
Thanks for the awesome video :)
This seems like a very neat game and I would love to see more of it when it’s out.
Hades 2 should take some of the lessons from the bullet heaven genre. While I've played the game to death I still wished they had something to mix up the fun in the game. Mods are great for that but not everyone has time to code more of it.
Character looks like Percy from Beyond the Beyond. OG ish right there
This quite an exciting watch and I'm expecting more gameplay and news of it
This definitely stands out.
Yeah, this looks awesome. I gotta try it out!
Really nice game. Would love to see more on it!
Y'know, a lot of what grinds my gears about these "hordelike" games is a lack of player agency. They've always been just one step above an idle game to me. This one actually seems to let the player do just enough to reach the sweet spot for me of feeling like I'm actually affecting something, I'll have to check it out. Also some neat god designs here!
This looks so good!! Can't wait to see more from this game
the pixelart reminds me of children of morta, except for the jiggly...physics on the sorceress
If Hades and Halls of Torment had a child...Tbh there could be worse combinations
loved the game, would 100% watch more videos about it
Looking at this, I want this game to succeed so much! I think they can make a great game if they blend the elements they take inspiration from JUST RIGHT.
This is promising, very promising.
I'm loving this game wow.... so beautiful
Game looks really good.
Looks really cool, nice!
A bit looks like Hades mixed with Death's gambit and of course BH
I want to see more, makes me wonder if anyone could make a mod to hades to turn it into a bullet heaven style like this, and have the bosses spawn in every 10 mins or so.
39:00 is this a samurai jack reference? To the three blind archers?
You say you try any decent bullet heaven: Then it's time to check out Soul Survivors, which I already recommended to you in the past. There are three classes right now and all play very different with almost no overlap in their abilities.
3 classes? you're SUPER behind. The game is fully out now and had a patch last month that introduced a TON of skills to the game. And also, yeah no, there's more like 12 or 15 classes.
@@tonysmith9905 You're mistaken, I don't talk about Soulstone Survivors. It's Soul Survivors.
This looks sick!
Now this looks smooth! An insta wishlist for me.
This one looks really fun!
Can you try Greedland next?
This is odd Halls of Torment have skeletons 1 wave then slimes also them imps that poke you, very sus game but i like so far
Wonder I have not seen a comment yet and I do think you realized it already, but you move a lot slower while attacking no matter which character you were using.
Edit: I think the dev/devs put a moving speed cap while attacking.
More interesting bullet heavens, awesome!
This is probably going to be my next bullet heaven after Halls of Torment.
Indie game of the year for 2024?
Nah, even if a game like this doesn't have bullets it can still be called a "bullet heaven". The same way that a souls-like has nothing to do with souls.
Edit:
Where do I get this? This game is awesome. Keep playing.
I try DmD and i find very FUN... i wait to buy... beta or anything...
Early access in a few months the dev said
Is it from same dev from Rogue Genesia?
Sorry Wander, but if it's free to play I may as well play it instead of watching it... Nonetheless thanks, I wouldn't know about it
Horde heaven?
Looks good, but I don't like manual attacks in this type of game.
I like it a lot tbh. Contact damage is really boring.
@@wanderbots Yeah, I don't like contact damage either (epecially not when the enemies can do contact damage to the player), but I was mainly thinking about how tiring it is for me to repeatedly click a button or key due to my disability. And bullet heavens requires a lot of clicking (if not auto attack).
@@oliver_twistor ah whoops, misinterpreted your comment. Honestly the manual attacks are fine for me as well. Annoying and risky, but otherwise this would feel like every other bullet heaven. This way there's a real risk vs reward when deciding whether to attack or run away to reposition.
With auto attacks it wouldn't have that dynamic. But you are correct that it isn't very accessible this way.
@@wanderbots No worries! The best would be if there will be a toggle for people to choose between auto and manual. I'm all for giving the player as much choice as possible. But that might get problematic given that the protagonist slows down when attacking and that seems to be a big part of the mechanics and the risk/reward as you said. We'll see when the full game comes out.
@@oliver_twistor There is a toggle actually in the menu. You can set it to attack all the time with one click, next click turns it off. So still some clicking but at least there's some thing.
1) Goddess of Fire is hot XD
2) Does Wander have mild dyslexia or smth? he very often struggles to read the dialogue correctly.
Yep! I tend to mix up letters vertically, but I can also have serious trouble with certain fonts.
Another bullet-heaven had that fire trail ability and it's my favorite. Was it Holocure?
Looks good, but the pacing isn't for me :(
Hm, diablo 2.5 which is actually better then 4? Yes please
That's just disrespectful to Hades.
Im kinda not interested in bullet heaven games anymore but this 1 looks really good.
Wow your reading comprehension is atrocious at times. Take your time man don't rush reading things.
It's called dyslexia. Don't be rude.
@@wanderbots Damn, my bad. Sorry I had no idea.
