Holy Shoot

I cannot recommend this game at this time. I just got hard locked in a run cause of a door closing on me, get to explore the infinite map tho lol Uhh, yeah beyond that, get rid of the "100% hit rate" enemies, meaning the skull and horned demon. Should never have an enemy that always hits you no matter what, and they do cause they will just appear around corners going mach 10 cause they don't path properly and get stuck in attack movement on walls then just slingshot into you. Weapons, honestly not a lot of originality or differentiation in a lot of weapons, ie machine gun variations, but then you get like, grenade shotgun which is cool, same with the duckgun! I want to like it, but I don't like it cause no enemy should get that kind of just "yeah you take damage no matter what," all the weapons need some level of unique ability or gimmick, and I can't like it cause its broken to boot, hard lock out of the next area by the door that prevents back tracking.

C'est un peu boring. Le jeu est pas mauvais en soi mais très ennuyant. Le feeling des armes est pas incroyable, le jeu est mou, les ennemis sont mous, les deux premiers boss sont mous, le perso est mou. Bref, j'ai pas grand chose de plus à dire. Il suffirait de pas grand chose je pense pour le rendre plus agréable

Just started, but my first impression is that the game has a lot of fun ideas and elements for meta-progression and in-run upgrades. But it just feels "off" compared to the others in the genre. Gunfire Reborn, Roboquest, etc... they are just smoother with tighter hit boxes and snappier combat. Idk what it is, but Holy Shoot just feels like it's a little clunky/janky and the hitboxes just don't seem right. Maybe I should give it another go, and I likely will, but there are too many good games in the genre. If you have already played the top dogs in the genre, then maybe this will be fun for you.

Holy Shoot is a fantastic Roguelike styled FPS that mixes Doom stylized combat with a Borderlands aesthetic. The shooting feels great in an old-school shooter type of way, and the challenges keep every run fresh. It took me quite a few tries to beat the first boss and it was a rewarding experience. The weapon choices have a good amount of variety, but I wouldn't mind seeing more options in the future. The biggest issue with this game right now is the performance. Occasional stutters occurred in certain parts, but rarely during the heavy action bits. However, it is still a noticeable drawback that may turn people off from playing the game. Overall, there is quite a lot of love put in this game. While it does need more polish, there is so much to appreciate in its current state. For anyone seeking a challenge, this may be on the "easier" side of the genre, but it is a worthy game to grind, if wanting something a bit more laid back.

[h3]Divertido, mas não tem conteúdo o suficiente pra justificar o preço[/h3] O jogo é divertido e visualmente é agradável com uma aparência bem estilo Borderlands, mas não tem conteúdo o suficiente pra se justificar e o conteúdo que tem não é tão polido quanto poderia ser. Eu comecei um save novo com o lançamento da versão 1.0, e em apenas 4 horas eu fiz todas as conquistas do jogo, o que inclui matar os 4 bosses e liberar todas as skills. Boa parte dos mapas são labirintos o que quebra o ritmo do jogo e faz parecer bem mais lento do que deveria pra esse tipo de jogo já que você precisa matar certa quantidade de inimigos pra avançar. Eu enfrentei alguns bugs com inimigos presos dentro de paredes, desafios literalmente impossíveis pois exigia matar um tipo específico de inimigo que não spawnava, ou spawnava muito longe pra dar tempo de chegar e matar, e na única vez que eu tentei usar a habilidade de reviver eu morri de novo antes mesmo de ganhar controle da personagem. Esse jogo acertou nos visuais e em passar o sentimento de você ter se tornado o chefe durante a run, é bem satisfatório matar inimigos com 1 tiro e ver raios explodindo pra todo lado, mas fora isso eu não recomendaria pegar considerando a quantidade de conteúdo que tem atualmente e a qualidade do conteúdo.

If you like fps roguelite games you should give it a try! Its easy to play and makes you want to end the run.

★★⯪☆☆ - [u]Holy Shoot or Holy Hell ?[/u] According to the developers, Holy Shoot is a fast-paced, roguelike-style FPS. [u]Regarding the fast-paced gameplay [/u]: while double-jumping and dashing are possible, the enemies aren't very aggressive and the levels are largely horizontal, so you’ll rarely actually use these moves. [u]As for the FPS aspect[/u], there is very little weapon variety, and aiming is imprecise (sometimes you shoot at enemies but they take no damage). Shotgun or handgun? It makes no difference; the range is the same. In any case, the heavy machine gun is the best option. [u]Regarding the roguelike element[/u]: like many games in the genre, progression is slowed down by removing the skills needed to win. You can only win by unlocking them (a process that takes about two hours). You do acquire power-ups during a run, but there are too few of them, they lack synergy, and, regardless, once you reach the mid-game and unlock everything, you simply steamroll through everything. Consequently, there is no real progression curve (or gameplay choice). [u]On top of all that[/u], the game is riddled with bugs, lacks optimization, and suffers from a lack of variety (and distinct identity) in its design and environments. The weapons lack any sense of impact, and the sound design is unpolished. The only good point is that the game is short. [b][u]Verdict[/u]: So why the recommendation? Because, even though the game has a huge number of flaws (reflecting a lack of polish and even a rushed job), it remains an FPS that I enjoyed playing. And for just a few euros, it’s hard to fault the developers for the work they actually delivered.[/b]

Fun, but very short. I completed the game in under 3 hours. It was an enjoyable experience, but I wish it had offered more content and a longer playtime. Mayhem Mode isn't really worth playing, as it doesn't add enough to justify another run. I'd recommend picking it up only when it's on sale.

Good core game mechanics, good replayability, quick paced action and can stay casual. I recommend it!
