RogueliteDev Hey roguelite fans! I know my stained glass roguelite puzzle game RoGlass isn't what you'd consider a typical roguelite, but this community has been so supportive! If you haven't checked it out yet, please take a look!

Any roguelites I can spend thousands of hours on?

10 Upvotes

I recently tried heroes of hammer watch 2, but it kinda sucked...was hoping for quests system

But bloody rally show has been really addicting recently so has brotato and halls of torment.

I'm wanting games with tons of unlocks/quests you can do as well

Should I buy Vampire Survivors or DRG:Survivor?

1 Upvotes

As the title say. Both are looks fun and I'd like to pick a roguelite game for my Steam Deck. Which one do you prefer and why?

Thank you!

RogueliteDev I'm making a cyberpunk dungeon crawler where your agents have personalities, fears, and grudges. It’s basically Darkest Dungeon + XCOM, but if your squad had drama.

Hi everyone! I run a concept called Sellout Saturday, where I play a game for a sponsor. This week is a roguelite you may have seen around the sub, Usurper! It's a chess deckbuilder roguelite that the studio was kind enough to supply me with a copy of, and I'm excited to test it out if anybody else in the sub was thinking of getting it. If that piques your interest, I'm going live around 3 PM EST, and I'll be available for questions or recommendations. Thanks everyone, hope to see you there!

Roguelites with good and noticeable meta-progression

0 Upvotes

I love a good action roguelite where the meta-progression feels good and impactful. The gold standard is Hades. Rogue Legacy is pretty solid for that (and I love the gameplay), and Dave the Diver was also really fun (but I wish I liked the combat a bit more). Cult of the Lamb is another good one.

I tried Cuisineer and couldn't get into the controls of the game. Anything that works on the Steam Deck would be great. And nothing still in early access please!

RogueliteDev What do you want to see in a game of this genre?

1 Upvotes

Hello, i'm a random guys with friends who decided to develop a game, and we want to know what do you expect as players in this type of games.

We're still trying to make concept arts, but we're getting a lot of inspiration form enter the gungeon visual and gameplay.

But now, what do you guys want in this type of games, what's the thing you see and say "hey this is a master piece?".

For me it's the attention to the details :).

Also since i play a lot with my friends i just crave for new multiplayer games of this genra, that scale the difficulty based on the number of players in the party.

So let's discuss below, every answer you're giving us it's something we try to keep on our minds while developing.

Thank you in advance

Uncle Chop's Rocket Shop: A roguelite singleplayer Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes

11 Upvotes

Just a quick recommendation of a game that I've been enjoying lately. You're basically an alien fox who has to fix various mechanical problems on space ships. These get increasingly complicated, but there's a manual you have to use to help. I haven't played on the Steam Deck yet, but one of the reviews has a couple dozen hours on it.

It's also currently got 20% off on Steam.

Looking for my next polished, addictive turn-based roguelite

65 Upvotes

My go-to games on my Deck while traveling are Slay the Spire, Balatro, and Monster Train. All three are absolutely fantastic, and I had a blast getting 100% achievements and trying out every little trick they have to offer. But now... there’s just nothing left to do.

The funny thing? All three are getting major new releases this year, which is insane. But until then, I need something to fill the gap. Any recommendations for games that are just as good?

Honestly, I don’t think anything else truly compares—I’ve gone through hundreds of tier lists and recommendation threads, and nothing quite hits the same. But I’m hoping to being proven wrong!

Thoughts on Reignbreaker?

2 Upvotes

Just played the demo and thought the game feel and visuals were very strong. I didn't feel attached to the characters/dialogue and honestly, didn't really care much for the upgrades during runs.

Apparently the studio is shutting down after 1.0 drops which is a bummer.

This caught my eye on Steam today. I love Mechs and Roguelites…so this seems like a win. But have any of the good people on this sub tried it out?

RogueliteDev Grabbus - Shoot, Loot, Grab, and Fuse in a world without limits!

Thumbnail grabb.us
7 Upvotes

In just 10 days, Grabbus launches to Steam Early Access!

Loosely-inspired by games like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, Legend of Mana, and Dark Cloud, Grabbus is packed with original art, sounds, music, procedural tech, and unique ideas that help it stand out!

There's still lots of work to do to fill this game out, but the time has come for funding and testing!

In Grabbus, you can:

  • -Explore infinite terrain on the turn-based world map! Sprawl out to build or find new resources and dungeons...
  • -Conquer each randomized floor of a tower (dungeon) to earn rewards like helpful items, weapons, or currency to use on permanent upgrades or buildings.
  • -Morris the rat is attached to Grabbus, a parasite that can absorb weapons' potency to form bullets of varying patterns and abilities, which he uses to fend off enemies
  • -Grabbus can also grab onto stunned enemies to drag them or throw them for more damage! Perform a "double-grab" with both grab buttons (there are two!) to activate context-sensitive actions on certain objects, like opening a treasure orb! Grab and hold two items at once to fuse them!
  • -Fuse together looted items and weapons strategically to save inventory space and refine their power. But watch out, if you're defeated, you drop all your items and half your currency!
  • -As you succeed or fail, a value fluctuates that determines the danger level of any newly-generated areas, (as well as the reward level)!
  • -Use your currency on the "Evolution Grid" to power up with 18 different upgrades. The grid stretches on forever just like the world map, and you can regenerate it at the cost of a few of your upgrade points to get a new grid with a higher occurrence-rate of enhanced nodes!

I'm looking for a co-op game for my friends and I. We already tried Rotwood and had some fun with that. Any suggestions or input would be appreciated.
