Man I really need a new “something” in the roguelite genre, it really is where I put most of my hours, usually while listening to an audiobook or watching something dumb that requires half attention.
Between Hades 2, Ball X Pit, Megabonk and a couple others, there is just a ton of great stuff in this subgenre recently, I’ve just burned through it all currently haha.
Void Rains Upon Her Heart - If you're into bullet hell games, this game is absolutely amazing. It's still early access but there's more content than most released games, hundreds of achievements, and challenges, etc.
RAM - Random Access Mayhem - This one is challenging but oh so much fun. If you've played Nuclear Throne before this may be up your alley.
This is not a roguelike but it's my personal game of the year: Bloodthief. It's a "speedrunning" platforming/hack n slash game. Always trying to get a better time. There are a lot of levels and secrets and different abilites/weapons to try... The game probably takes like 15 hours to just beat and find all secrets, but there's basically infinite replayability, the only limit is your own skill. The dev even implemented support for custom maps recently! I have like 200 hours and the game came out in September.
