SCREEN JUICE has released the first gameplay trailer for Morbid Metal. And, at first, I got really excited about it. But then, I saw that it’s a rogue-lite game and my excitement completely vanished.
In Morbid Metal, players can shapeshift between 4 different character to slaughter enemies with powerful combos. Players can switch characters in real-time to unleash their power and fight their way through hordes of deadly machines and intense bosses.
They will progress through semi-procedurally generated levels in various environmental biomes. These biomes will range from desolate wastelands of the far future, to the overgrown ruins of mankind.
Now while you will be able to upgrade your characters and progressively grow stronger, you will lose all of those upgrades once you die. And that’s what puts me off about Morbid Metal (and all rogue-lite games). Once you die, you’ll have to start all over again.
Anyway, SCREEN JUICE will launch the game on Steam Early Access this Summer. So, if you are a fan of this genre, you should definitely watch the following trailer!
