Aura of worlds is a really cool rogue like platformer that takes a bunch of small elements like creatures, traps and area layouts and mixes and matches them together to generate interesting situations for the players to solve.

Things only get more interesting from there because the player will always come at these emergent problems with a completely different set of tools. You're challenged on both your overall skill at playing the game and it's general controls and the ability to put together strategies on the fly by mixing the items you've found in the level.

A lot of roguelikes like this feel a bit aimless and huge to me. I never feel like I'm unlocking much and I don't feel like I'm getting any better at the game either. Aura of Worlds is completely different it feels like it's in a really good balance where I can tell I'm getting a bit further each run and I'm unlocking new abilities every few runs that change up the way I play.

Over time I was able to work out a number of strategies and items that I play well with and almost got through a perfect run before getting beat up by the necromancer and a particularly nasty choke point. I can't wait until the next world is released so I can see how my strats hold up to the new challenges.

I definitely recommend picking this game up it's already great and only getting better.
Also the music is amazing.
