Great idle game, lots of interesting gun combos, would recommend for quick runs. The meta progression is nice too.

This is the only game I ever, *ever* actually intend to 100%. It is the perfect realtime roguelike, in that it presents a giant stampsheet of goals to accomplish, and each little entry in that sheet introduces a unique and compelling tactical expression space. I absolutely frickin' adore the concept of open-ended tactical puzzles, and this game is fine-tuned for exactly that purpose. Also this game does some genuinely surprising stuff with what I'd call the mid-game aspect, regarding the latter difficulties of the default game mode. All I'll say is it's what compelled me enough to stick around and tease apart the series of puzzles presented to me. If you like solving combat puzzles, this is an auto-get. Genuinely.

Genome Guardian is a lot of fun, has a ton of build variety, and the music is absolutely bangin! You'll probably struggle a lot at first, I did, but after reading the community discussions, stuff that worked started to gel, and there are some really great combos (that you might not expect). By no means does any specific thing feel mandatory, like in many TD/Shmup games like this. There's a lot of flexibility in how you build. I would def recommend this game.

I just really like experimenting in this game. Theres so many ways for a build to get broken and fast, yet it still remains difficult due to the sheer power of enemies (espicially the C DNA enemies, most of those are run enders for me imo)

Amazing arcade shooter. The gene system for weapons and enemies makes it easy to figure out things in an intuitive and satisfying way. Try it even if you might not like the genre!

Very fun game, lots of customization to suit however you'd like to play. I love the concept of all enemies needing to be treated differently, like some enemies you can just let do their thing sometimes and other times can be a real threat.

I'm surprised not many people play this game more. I see a lot of achievements still at <5% achievers. It's an okay game for the price.

You are a stationary turret, waves of microbes come at you from all directions, and you'll need to kill them. There is one mode where you move your turret back and forth and shoot up. But most modes are the standard circle. There are a number of weapons combos and you'll upgrade after each wave. Even at the mercy of RNG as to what upgrades you can choose from at the end of each wave, I did not find it difficult to get the weapons I want - but getting the modifiers you want will be up to RNG. You do have the ability to lock 1 item per wave to buy it at the end of next wave, it would be nice if you could lock as many as you want. I like the game, the colors, the music. It's fun. That said, this game is HARD. You will fail over and over and over and over. And even after you finish all of the upgrades, you'll still have an incredible amount of difficulty completing waves. At 25+ hours in and I'm only at 33% completion. It is unlikely I'll 100% it due to the difficulty. That said, if you like super difficult games, don't mind dying a lot, and are persistent - give this game a try. Just don't expect it to be easy.
