That's great feedback - do you feel that has more to do with the items being more overpowered/beneficial for those games vs ones like flock and voyager, or do you feel that even if you had no items the scaling would be uneven?

Unfortunately I'm not aware of too many other games like it, but it was inspired by this old flash game! https://simianlogic.com/games/filler
Fugue Shot is our genre-blending roguelike set in an endless dream, where you play through a bunch of different arcade-inspired game modes in a single run! You can collect different items, called Memories, to create game-breaking builds as you try to defeat the increasingly difficult Omens - manifestations of fears brought to life in this strange dream world.

We just released the pre-demo of Fugue Shot as we gear up for our full demo and eventual release on Steam and itch!

You can think of the game as “if UFO 50 was a roguelike” - we also take a lot of influence from Animal Well with our art direction!
In the Itch version, you can expect the following features:
- 5 fully playable Omens
- Over 40 run-altering items
- 20 permanent unlocks and built-in progress saving
- A lighter and more simple version of our final run structure
- Unlimited runs, unlimited fun!
We’d love to hear your feedback, and we hope you enjoy the game! If you enjoy, it would also help us a ton to wishlist the game on Steam!
Thanks!
