Repeated failure is a hallmark of any good roguelike or roguelite, but knowing each defeat got me a little closer to giving my characters a boost here and there certainly made those losses less humbling. Now there were also Chips – essentially modifiers – which gradually built up my characters so they could do things like passively increase their defenses, give buffs to the Crystal Bot I was charged with protecting, or reduce the cooldown of my character’s Ultimate Skill. But the people at Amplitude seem to have shifted that philosophy a bit. Previously no progression existed, and what was planned was largely horizontal progression where new characters and items unlocked, but I couldn’t actually become more powerful except through honing my skill.
