    They’re the first 2 thing I install on any device I get. Idk how I’m not tired of Isaac after starting right before Wotl dropped on the flash version.

      The potential for game breaking synergies and relative simplicity of movement/shooting in 4 cardinal directions makes for pretty fantastic gameplay.

      BoI has taken a bit more of a back seat in my library since I discovered Enter the Gungeon.

        Gungeon is one I need to get back to. I really never clicked for me after hours of gameplay, but it has everything I’m looking for in a game. Kinda the same with Nuclear Throne, but I put a lot more time into that one.

        Streets of Rogue was the other top down roguelike shooter I fell in love with. So many weird ways to progress in that game.

          Streets of Rogue was a laugh, but it didn’t stick the way Gungeon did.

          It took me months of play to finish my first Gungeon run. But once I beat a run, it became routine that pretty much every run got finished successfully. Although the extra bosses are really difficult, I didn’t get to grips with those.

          I had written geberal detailed tips for Gungeon back in the day…but that’s all lost now since I scrubbed everything I had ever submitted to Reddit.
