Game Description:
Dive into the eccentric world of Going Under, a satirical roguelike dungeon crawler set in the dystopian city of Neo-Cascadia. In this game, you play as an unpaid intern for Fizzle, a carbonated drink startup, navigating through the literal and metaphorical ruins of failed tech companies.
Plot:
As Jacqueline “Jackie” Fiasco, a new intern, your job isn’t your typical office work. Instead, you’re tasked with descending into the procedurally generated dungeons beneath your workplace. These dungeons are the remains of once-thriving startups, now cursed and overrun with monstrous former employees. Your mission? Defeat these creatures, reclaim valuable assets, and uncover the dark secrets of your employer and the tech industry’s underbelly.
Gameplay:
Combat: Battle through levels with an array of unconventional weapons, from office supplies like laptops and brooms to more traditional weapons that can break if not used wisely. The key to survival is strategic weapon selection and cautious play.
Roguelike Elements: Each run through these dungeons is unique, thanks to procedurally generated layouts and randomized encounters. You’ll need to adapt to changing environments, learn from each run, and improve your strategy.
Skills and Apps: Discover and utilize Skills that change gameplay dynamics, akin to spells or abilities in other roguelikes. Collect apps that provide temporary boosts or effects, adding another layer of strategy as you decide which to use or keep for future runs.
Narrative and Satire: The game satirizes the startup culture, gig economy, and corporate greed, offering humorous insights and critiques through its narrative and environmental storytelling.
Character Development: Interact with coworkers at Fizzle to gain Clout, unlocking special abilities and learning more about the dystopian world. Your relationships with these characters can affect gameplay and story outcomes.
Features:
Vibrant Art Style: The game boasts a colorful, cartoonish aesthetic that contrasts with its dark humor and themes, making the visual experience both appealing and ironic.
Accessibility Options: Going Under includes various accessibility features like invincibility frames adjustments and health boosts to cater to a wide range of player skill levels.
Multiple Dungeons: Explore different startups, each with unique themes like a ride-sharing app, a dating site, or a cryptocurrency venture, each offering distinct challenges and enemies.
Achievements and Replayability: With achievements tied to various in-game accomplishments, there’s motivation to explore different strategies and playstyles.
Boss Fights: At the heart of each dungeon, confront the founders of these startups, who’ve amassed wealth while their companies crumbled. Overcome these bosses to gain powerful relics for Fizzle.
Community and Updates:
Post-Launch Content: The game has received updates post-launch, including new weapons, outfits, and even a “Working from Home” update that introduced new dungeons and a hard mode.
Community Engagement: Active on platforms like Steam with patches, updates, and community discussions. The developers have been responsive to feedback, adding elements like jiggle physics to weapons for added fun.
Conclusion:
Going Under offers a unique blend of humor, action, and critique, making it a standout title in the roguelike and dungeon crawler genres. It’s for players who enjoy a good laugh at the expense of corporate culture, challenging gameplay, and a story that unfolds with each descent into the startup abyss.
