An Amazing game with Amazing gameplay and Amazing soundtrack by Chris Christodoulou. I cannot even begin to scratch on the surface on how epicly awesome this game is.

Being a big fan of any retro sytled game, I decided to get this game, and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, I asked myself why I didn't get this earlier! Now, before I can go any further, I'd like to say that the soundtrack is down right touching; Seriously it makes half the game for me IMO. Risk of Rain is a fast pased platformer with RPG elements; in this game, you have to think fast to survive (but not THAT fast). Just like most Rogue like games, this game has a bundle of items that not only increase your stats, but change the gameplay slightly (e.g. Barbed Wire makes a halo around your character that damages enemies).

While there are less items than other Rouge games (Binding of Isaac, Splunkey, etc) what makes this game unique is that if you collect the same item again, it stacks on itself. There is also a monster notebook that pretty much gives you the commando's (the first playable character) point of veiw on the enemies, which I believe was a good touch.

There is a storyline to this game, but unfortunetly, you would normally be too distracted by killing the enemies in the game, untill, that is, you reach the last level in the game. Now I won't spoil anything, but trust me, its Amazing. I'd probably go on forever about this game, but I fear that if I say too much, you won't buy it. Seriously, get this game! I've only merely scratched the surface of what the game is; the game is only 10 dollars, and it will be the best 10 dollars you would have spent!
