We’re starting off this week with Perseus: Titan Slayer, a 3D action RPG roguelite.
You play as Perseus, a demigod tasked with one mission; defeat the Titans as you battle your way into Tartarus to stop Chaos from conquering Olympus and destroying the world.

Fight, kill, grow, and live in Noobs Want to Live, a 2D bullet heaven roguelite.
