GUNHEAD Reviews
Gunhead is a fast paced strategic roguelike FPS where you take the role of a pirate mech with a gun for a head, looting derelict spaceships filled with monstrous drones made out of bone and steel. Sequel to the 2d roguelite Cryptark.

Aw man.
I liked Cryptark a lot. But somehow Gunhead just doesn't work for me.
- The visual theme has lost the moodier look of the first game in favor of a very generic rainbow color scheme.
- The game completely fails to explain itself. UI elements and icons are in urgent need of some written labels to make it clear what exactly RED WIREFRAME BOX or SQUIGGLY SYMBOL means. *Some of those* you can look up in tooltips, but most you can not.
- There are very annoying interface bugs that make the game even harder to understand.
- I still haven't figured out how to edit my loadout the way we used to in Cryptark. Is that even in this game?
- There is no ability to plan your route on the map, say by drawing a line or placing markers.
- The whole hub area feels half-done, lifeless and unnecessary. I would have honestly preferred a menu.
I'd like to say that surely the devs will iron it out, but...it doesn't look like it.
Unfortunate.

Gunhead is a modern roguelike take on Descent. Its fast and fun, but gets quite repetitive as you play randomly generated but functionally identical maps again and again. While the maps get bigger, there still isnt enough progression to make me want to play this long term.

It hurts me to write this review. I do not know what happened to Alientrap this time. This is barely related to Cryptark. The formula is not the same. The FPS gameplay does not feel good. because there is not gravity the gameplay is very confusing. The 3D models feel cheap. I can keep mentioning things that are not ok. One of the things I am guessing is that this is apparently the work of another team. This is a good example why devs should always provide a demo for the game
