Honestly the most fun I've had with a game in a LONG time! Fun fact-paced gameplay, amazing music, and some pretty nice environments. I can't wait to see what the devs add in the future!
Only thing I can't vouch for is multiplayer (haven't played it yet)

Genuinely having loads of fun with this game. I can see where it can be awkward if you have more than 2 friends you want to play with at any given time, but I wouldn't want to have any more players--3 is a perfect number for it imo.
The recent updates have all headed in the right direction in removing choices you never pick or that are underwhelming, so I think the game is on its way to being super good. My only complaint it that I want more! Can't wait for future content.

At its core Windblown treasures momentum and reaction - at all times I found it making an effort to reward clever, ambitious gameplay and exploiting attacks. Is it terribly punishing when you start out? Sure, it's a roguelike - those things become trivial in time and the game finds new ways to challenge you.
At time of writing I was able to gain all achievements and unlock the vast majority of content in a very-satisfying 21 hours, as well as find builds and weapons I was happy to gravitate towards over-and-over. There are secrets on every route, an abundance of unlockables, and customizable drops to make sure you aren't consistently getting offered unwanted loot.
All in all, the game certainly requires some polish to shine - we ran into some rare cutscene bugs, endless mode isn't balanced at all (though the devs do warn of this), and some weapons clearly outshine others - but when the game clicks into place and you have a stellar run it really knocks the ball out of the park. I extensively played Ember Knights including its DLC, and would now recommend this game over it even in early access.
Also, the music slaps.

It is fun, it is engaging and I love this game, the fast paced action and by the Nine Divine i love the banger soundtrack made by Danger. I'm usually not that big on roguelike games but this one really makes me want to play it nonstop. If roguelikes are your thing or even if you wanna give them a try get it, now 🫵
I'm really looking forward to future updates for the game and even some more lore!!!

I'm on the fence right now since it feels heavily designed for co-op with the bosses and crap since I've fought the first boss multiple times and still haven't beat him except once when i had him at the last 8th of his health bar using only ranged weapons and then proceeded to die to his spam of fire wave things and orb bombs. So don't get me wrong it is good but it is also kinda bullshit with how hard it is to beat the first boss and I'm saying this coming from Dead Cells doing a hit-less run through the first area and boss on 2 BC. But maybe this is just a skill issue at the time and I need to level more. Also it does say we are the guinea pigs for the game at this time so maybe there are some balancing issues with single player.
Edit: Just beat that boss and almost the last ones but I've found melee weapons are (at least to me) very unbalanced and don't do enough damage whereas ranged weapons are absolutely busted with there movement and damage so there is my opinion.

If you love dead cells or rogue likes then this game will be right up your alley. It is still being developed and so much has been added from when I first got this game. I finished the main story solo and it is definitely challenging! This game is geared towards co op but you can definitely have a blast solo! I am a pretty casual gamer and I unlike some reviews, I do not mind the updates that seem to make it harder for solo play. This game is just a fun beat em up where u can relax and enjoy a pretty fun game-loop. I would recommend picking it up and trying to force your friends to get it too (if you have any ;)

The game is fun. The default bindings are pretty rough on the thumbs so I suggest re-binding them. Also turning on the auto dash helps. Outside of those suggestions I look forward to the full release.

Don't have much experience with rougelites other than Risk of Rain 2 primarily, but a friend recommended this game and I loved it and got a lot of value out of it, They're killing it with the updates and support while listening to community feedback so I believe this game has a bright future ahead of it once it gets more popularized. 9/10

Enjoyed it more than I expected, specially because I suck using a controller but it has fast and exciting gameplay that feels pretty satisfying.
Good to play with a friend or solo, the only thing I personally do not really enjoy is the characters design but I do not hate on it either.
For the price it is a good purchase and I can recommend it, honestly I should be playing more myself.
