This is a great game, with a lot of potential, but has some major flaws that keep it from standing up there with Issac.

1. Runs always devolve into 2 builds. Swing fast with crits or ricochet throw build. There is no in between and no variance.
2. Bombs are more of a detriment than an actual powerup. You never use bombs inside of combat unless you have a very VERY specific build, even then it's more of a detriment than a blessing. Getting a bomb power up (other than gold, which is another problem) is like losing an item. (Also bombs build garbage hurts the Othermine runs as well). Bombs are only for out of combat and secrets.
3. Armor is worthless, dots shred it and it only has a select few synergizing items. Of the two synergies they are bad and not remotly worth it. Once again, getting them feels like a dead item drop.
4. Not enough items work with one another. The fun of Issac is seeing all the wacky ways items work together and see what it pops out with.
5. Bosses are scarce and are a bit underwhelming.
6. The Othermine is a chore and more luck based than skilled. When I started the Othermine runs for the missing items, I just restarted until it would stop giving me horrid items that do basically nothing (like armor or bombs) or starting buffs like "Bomb 4" There is no reason to get bomb buffs already, ESPECIALLY in the Othermine. You need at least one of your attacks to do... well anything.
7. The Othermine should NOT cost resources to play! It's already a chore to play it, why give us a chore to keep playing it. Especially when you need to reroll horrid run starts.
8. The Slime boss and 100k gold given to get there is insane. It should be a 1 time payment. Don't E-paywall and force players to grind gold just do do more challenging content.
9. Pause and restart needs to be removed so you can't redo levels when things stop going your way.
10. Far too many relics and potions are so worthless you dont even want to craft them just to keep them out of your main pool. If you are going to keep the crafting to put things in the item the pool mechanic, you need to allow players to remove stuff too. If not it's better for me to make a new account and just never craft anything I know is horrid.
11. Many of the followers are broken as sin. The hand is one thing as he's a pain to get and is a cool "End of game he does cool stuff" item like Azazel from Issac. But compare the angel to the blue jay... jesus the Angel is broken.
12. Dear god, friendly electricity shouldn't hurt you. The bluejay is more of a danger than your enemies.
13. Issac has a buffer when you walk into a room. you guys put drops, traps, 1 step outside of the door, so when you are back tracking you take unessiary damage all the time.
14. Jumping in this game... it's so bad you guys even made traps that poke fun at the jumping being bad.

Again, this game is great, it has amazing potential. I would not type all this if I didn't like it, but it really needs a lot of work before full release.

Fun game. Uplay is cancer.

Waste of 20 dollars.

3 hours of "gameplay" aka holding right and about 5 or so "puzzles" that can equate to: Turn on thing. Go to thing.
People saying this game is scary are scared to death from Halloween trick or treaters.
It's barely even cute as your main character is just OG Noodle from Gorrillas in a rain poncho.
There is no mystery. Shock shock you are on a boat.
Character development just stems from: guess what you're the little nightmare. Who didn't see that coming?!?!
Guess what, shocker, you equate to a gremlin.
There are litterally only 4 enemies in the game. A guy with long arms you can see in the trailer, the Star Wars creature in the trash compactor, a chef that looks like Mayor McCheese, and the black slug from the true ending of Bloodborne.
There is no story.
The ending has zero rhyme or reason.
