My wife and I take turns playing this on the deck at night. It's wonderfully done, there are super easy chill run guaranteed characters (at low difficulties) and there are some very technical higher skill ceiling characters. Difficulty ranges from level 0, where my mom could make it to the end boss, and almost survived it (with me picking out weapons and upgrades) and she has neverplayed a game of the type (or nearly any type besides number puzzle games), to difficulty 5, where a victory is (almost) never guaranteed.

Runs take about ten to twenty minutes, enemy variety scales up with difficulty, unlocks abound in plenty, the learning curve is low and the ceiling is decently high.

And it's amazing on the steam deck.
