Neon Ascending

10/10 for the aesthetic - I absolutely love it. However, the core gameplay loop is quite mediocre and seems to be far more shallow than it looks. To be honest, I am kinda bored of it already. I don't know how to change my strategy to do better short of just grinding to level up and get better stats through the skill tree because of the limited placement of each module. There comes a point where I can't fit any more around my current weapon(s) no matter how many I move around. I have sold some upgrades and tried builds that are purely one thing hoping to find a combination that is more powerful than the others but nothing that is immediately striking other than some combination of neon fever, battery and coil. I hate it boils down to luck that every 5 levels, another weapon MIGHT become available. Since some weapons have low utility early on and desperately NEED another weapon. And the grind seems to be happening slower than I like. It's not glacial and I do like that they added a fast forward button so at least this game doesn't move at the pace of molasses. But this feature and it's beautiful aesthetics are not really enough to keep me around/interested.

Fun, great way to zone out and relax.
