I usually am kinda iffy about Rougelikes since i really like the feeling of progression and this games only progression is unlocking items for your loot pool (and more characters if you count that) and while that initially sounded pretty meh to me, it doesn't really matter once you start playing.

Every run lets you progress at a pretty good pace and its fun to see what the game will give you. Generally speaking the game lets you become pretty powerful if you collect all the loot, however it's still easy to eventually die to the inevitable chaos, because the enemies never stop coming and every stage ends with a boss battle plus all the mobs that make their way toward you during the battle.

small update:

The more I play it the better it gets, unlocking new items is pretty fun and makes major changes to your potential builds and just lots of fun to see in action...also getting a lot of hoppo feathers is really fun, I think I was able to stack at least 5 and jumping around the map is just amazing by itself (think double jump mechanics but you can use 5 jumps)
