Dead Cells is a roguelike, Castlevania-inspired action-platformer, allowing you to explore a sprawling, ever-changing castle… assuming you’re able to fight your way past its keepers. To beat the game you’ll have to master 2D souls-like combat with the ever present threat of permadeath looming. No checkpoints. Kill, die, learn, repeat.

I like how this game have a so fluid animation, its almost like classic Prince of Persia quality but seems to be using pre-rendered 3D (like SNES' Donkey Kong Country games) to manage that. The game seems to be fun and really deserves a chance.

I'll greenlight, but I won't ever play it. Permadeath mechanics are a VERY quick way to send me packing in the other direction.

It depends, some do it right, others just fuck you dry for hours until RNGesus finally gives you something you can work with.

Random generation is too overdone. Just design a fuckin castle, you lazy bastard. The art direction looks good and the gameplay looks solid tho.

It looks great except for the disparity of visual information between the hero/enemies and the environment/flashy effects.  :\
