I entered the target ship on a VIP mission.Hilarious fun and when things go wrong you only have yourself to blame.Tried to liberate the Sovereign Stronghold with just one subverter and a bunch of stealth shields, against an entire spaceship of shielded…Despite its repetition, it captures that roguelike “just one more run” feeling really well, constantly pulling you back in.Why it fits
