Brotato is a top-down arena shooter roguelite where you play a potato wielding up to 6 weapons at a time to fight off hordes of aliens. Choose from a variety of traits and items to create unique builds and survive until help arrives.
Really good game but I personally had to reduce dmg taken by like 50% cause it was otherwise quite frustrating. I play that kind of game for the power trip not to die cause I sneezed once
Yeah, I feel you. I used to like more punishing combat when I was younger, but now I just want to finish games and not have to restart fights constantly. I don't have the reflexes I used to when I was less old, and to be honest, my reflexes were bad even when I was young, just less bad than they are now.
Also sucks when your power ups are all RNG and since each character is very different, you can easily end up either a god or gimped depending on your luck. Easy mode for me lol
they aren't all RNG though.
The game significantly favours Items you have/bought before over giving you new ones.
Personally I enjoy the challenge of it, so I appreciate that it can be brutally punishing.
I agree, it's hard to find games that just throw you in the deep end nowadays without a gentle progression curve and meta upgrades. Incidentally, check out the Odinfall demo on Steam (if it doesn't crash on you, devs patched it and introduced a CTD regression). It's a tough as nails spiritual successor to Nuclear Throne that actually feels like it was cast in the same mold.
It sounds like Bull would be a good character for you to choose
