Have you played with other people yet? It gets even more crazy. I still haven't tried the harder difficulty.
Always looking for more to play with so hit me up on steam: Hekotat

This got an update and added Artifacts. I finally have played around with it since buying it ages ago. About 15 hours total in right now and I've unlocked all but 1 character.
The artifacts that let you choose what item you want, make monsters have a chance to drop items on death, and double monster spawns while halving their HP is a ton of fun (especially combined with Ceremonial Dagger).

1.0 release planned for August 11th after many years in early access. Contains a bunch of new content including a new survivor(character) and I believe a new "ending".
I picked this up after testing it during the free weekend or whatever not too long ago after the Artifact release and it was great. It's your fairly typical rogue-like, but as a 3rd person shooter, it's twitchy and challenging enough on the highest difficulty if you like a solid challenge but also fairly accessible at the lower difficulties with easy artifacts on and gets pretty crazy in scaling as you get later in the game which makes it a lot of fun imo. And each Survivor is fairly unique, which gives entirely different experiences. Some less good than others but hopefully some buffs to the weaker ones but even just the strong ones you have good variety.
I have 65 hours played and probably will add some more once the game fully releases(although not right away since it's also FFXIV patch day).

They do have something planned for this in 1.0 I believe, some server search thing or whatever instead of just random.
I doubt they'll be able to fix people acting like dicks and stealing all the items, laggers and the game eventually desyncing once you get too far due to too much shit being calculated and sent, but it's a start.
I played the game entirely solo though so it didn't affect me.
Just picked this up for the Switch. Holy fuck is this game hard! I got extremely lucky on my tenth run, got a bunch of health bonuses, some kind of regen bubble, some shields, a sprint bonus, a few drones flying around shooting shit for me, and these giant saw blades. I beat the Imp Master (I think that's his name), but got waxed by the first mob I ran into in the next level. I definitely wasn't supposed to be that far yet. I was just running around like a mad man, firing at everything around me. There were probably 60 or more mobs chasing me, along with the Imp Master. I fell off the platform, and my drones were still shooting him, so by some miracle he died and I made it through the level. This game is like Dead Cells on steroids! Definitely feels like one of those games that's way more fun multiplayer, but I'm hooked! I blinked and it was 1:30 in the morning!

Playing with a controller is crazy difficult versus a mouse/kb. I'm not saying it isn't hard but it was much worse when I tried to play from the couch. If you got 3 friends and some artifacts this game is very enjoyable for a few hours a week. They did a great job with alternate abilities, characters and game play changes.
