    It is a damned good game by all measures with addictive gameplay, catchy music, a great art style, and just the right amount of challenge. If you're looking for your next favorite roguelike platformer, look no further.

    The frequent deaths will turn off many, and it will take a lot of time to properly master the game. But for those who persevere, GoNNER is a rewarding, challenging experience that is a blast to play.

    Gonner delivers a roguelike that new comers to the genre can enjoy while the more experienced player will find a charming and different take on the subject.

    Fun and frantic, with plenty of challenge. GoNNER is weird and beautiful, despite its lack of depth.

    Gonner is a single gameplay mechanic away from being a fantastic run & gun roguelike, and if you don’t mind passing up a set of options, that problem can be ignored. It has a wonderful aesthetic, blending cute and cartoon-creepy, rendered in a unique art style that does a wonderful job of tying all the elements together.

    GoNNER is this year’s Downwell – a neat, short-form action game that has found the perfect visual style to communicate its near-misses and big hits. Whether you want to show off by pushing its systems to the limits or play at a more relaxed and careful pace, basking in the gorgeous music, it’s an absolute delight.

The controls are precise and easy. A perfect game for adults with little spare time for gaming. If you like Binding of Issac, you probably will love this one. It’s way shorter than Isaac though.… Expand

El juego no me pareció realmente difícil, no siento que tenga una dificultad tan elevada como otros títulos, aun así, es una experiencia bastante disfrutable.

    SINOPSIS

    Tal parece que nuestro protagonista se llama IKK con el cual recorremos distintos escenarios muy coloridos plagados de enemigos con el propósito de ayudar a su única amiga, una ballena llamada Sally.

    PROS

    1-Aunque el juego parece confuso, tiene la capacidad de hablar por sí solo, no cuenta nada y no ayuda en prácticamente nada durante las partidas, aun así, se logra entender nuestro propósito y como jugar sin mayores indicaciones por parte del juego.

    2-Como en todo roguelike mantiene la variación en los niveles que se generan de manera aleatoria. Tambien mantiene una buena combinación entre momentos apacibles y frenéticos.

    3-Apartado visual sublime y muy colorido que crea un escenario agradable a la vista. Los enemigos no se quedan fuera, tiene ese toque de ser adorables, pero a la vez nos damos cuenta que son un tanto macabros, y que sabes vienen de un sitio infernal y te harán daño.

    4-Hay una buena cantidad de ítems a recolectar, con estos objetos equiparemos a nuestro personaje, pongámoslo así: un casco (que dependiendo del mismo tendremos distinta cantidad de vida), una mochila (que nos da una habilidad) y armas (son variadas y tienen distinto tipo de disparo, cadencia y daño). Es importante también recoger todas las “monedas” (unos cuadrados de color morado con símbolos raros) que nos darán la posibilidad de comprar cosas a la parca.

    5-Tiene las mecánicas básicas de moverse, saltar y disparar y son muy satisfactorias, aunque sus mecánicas no se quedan ahí, podemos deslizarnos por las paredes, un doble salto y poder saltar sobre los enemigos para hacerles daño en caso de no tener munición.

    6-Una vez terminada la aventura disponemos de “Retos Diarios” por lo que podemos extender el juego aún más.

    CONTRAS

    1-Algunos niveles son bastante claustrofóbicos, esto es bueno para mantener la dificultad, pero he tenido momentos en los que no tenía a donde escapar y el enemigo terminaba por pillarme.

    2-Los logros no son muchos y una buena parte de ellos solo se desbloquean al pasar a un nivel o matar X cantidad de enemigos.

    3-La banda sonora está bien, pero pudo llegar a ser mejor y más variada.

    CONCLUSION

    Si te gustan los roguelikes deberias darle una oportunidad a este juego es una buena experiencia ademas de que se encuentra a un precio razonable.    … Expand

The graphical design is based on flashy, epileptic colors that change as you perform combos. Gave me headaches once or twice...

    For the rest, the game is a demanding, die-and-retry, nervous roguelike that requires quite some reflexes. The gameplay in itself is simple but enjoyable, though it will only appeal to those who like challenge. Since I am generally more of the contemplative kind, there is not much there for me to enjoy.    … Expand

All you get for con trolls is what looks like a keyboard or controller drawn in ms paint with some areas highlighted vague enough for you to be like OK what key is that. If the game actually told you what button to press that would be nice. that major failure of the tutorial gets this game a three. That one down fall 100% kills this game for me. The main thing any game should have is some thing that tells you what button does what. Not a vague hey push a button in this area of your keyboard.… Expand
