"Gonner is a tough as hell procedurally-generated 2D platformer with roguelike elements, following the largely misunderstood and altruistic Ikk on a journey to cheer up his only friend in this world—a giant landbound whale named Sally—by searching for just the right trinket in the deep and dark places nearby.
With Death as his mentor, supplying both a multitude of abilities and arsenal for Ikk to use, Ikk traverses an ever-changing land full of unwieldy creatures who don’t appreciate his trespassing or his friend Sally. Several different environments, arduous bosses, hidden secrets, multiple endings, and more await Ikk on his journey to make one person happy even if it kills him—which it certainly will."
GoNNER 2 is s frenetic rogouelite platform shooter, full of colour and sound, but don't be fooled: it's tough as hell!
While not a perfect game, GoNNER will leave us a good taste in terms of gameplay and gunplay. With a good variety of weapons and enemies, an eye-catching visual style and a well measured difficulty -even if sometimes it goes over the top-, it becomes an excellent recommendation for fans of this genre
If the idea of a 2D platform shooter roguelike with minimalist visuals appeals to you then Gonner: Blueberry Edition will be a welcome addition to your gaming library.
A great gateway title for roguelikes, and a great game on its own rights.
GoNNER is a great introduction to the roguelike genre. It may be short, but that doesn’t mean you will blast through it quickly even though its high difficulty may seem a bit too challenging for some. It plays and looks great on the TV screen and it fits nicely as a portable title.
