first allow me to say that the dev was right, more people will see his game and renounced absolutely *is* a wonderfully fun game that deserves recognition as well as respect for the effort put out by a single dev into their hand-drawn cartoonish extraction shooter rougelite. indeed, renounced is shaping up to and already should be held alongside the peers in its genre for how it distills and makes fluid the process of preparation to time to action. the game starts you in a bedroom, and from there you can go to one of two procedurally generated zones to go find loot and figure out how to extract, the game does not give you much direction in this way; which i mostly do like and in fact love in these types of games however in renounced it is hampered a bit by the intersection of the games simplified controls to more clunky mechanics that dont always work the they are supposed to. what i mean by this is that sometimes they straight up dont respond to your input when youre trying to move ...

About This Game

In "Renounced", you'll face challenging situations where every decision you make could have a significant impact on your life. A diverse progression system allows you to develop a wide range of skills, from weapon proficiency to survival techniques in harsh environments.
You'll need to take into account not only your character's health but also factors like bleeding, pain, shock, and psychological state. Every injury can affect your combat ability and your ability to perform daily tasks, adding a strategic element to every decision.
Crafting plays a crucial role: gather resources from the environment to create unique items, weapons, and armor that can help you survive in this unforgiving world. Adapt to the ever-changing environment by using your skills, finding new strategies to defeat enemies and overcome obstacles.
The game offers an atmospheric and unique visual style that transports you to a world where the hope for salvation seems far away.

These NPCs can become valuable allies or dangerous foes, so it is important to be cautious in your actions and decisions. Building relationships with them can significantly impact your survival, unlocking new opportunities and paths to explore. Gather your courage and embark on perilous adventures. Only the bravest in "Renounced" will survive and unravel the mysteries of this destroyed world!
