Shoutouts for my favorite Chinese developed game Gunfire Reborn. Borderlands-style Roguelike that you could almost SWEAR was going to have microtransactions. But no, it's one full price + character DLCs that is just start run, shoot dudes, complete runs. It got 99% good translations and a 100% mobile port! It's completely bewildering why this game didn't get treatment on par with Hades and Dead Cells.
Gunfire SLAPS for real
heckin great roguelike that my friends and i came back to recently after buying it back in 2020, and it's gotten so good!!
can't agree with the good translations part, but it does add some charm to it :p
I like Gunfire a lot but it doesn't have story and av comparable to Hades and doesn't have the replayability and difficulty of Dead Cells. A better comparison would probably be Risk of Rain 2, another game with a lack of story and budget art, that isn't as replayable as its betters, but still an enjoyable experience.
