The latest iteration of Steam Next Fest is drawing to a close, but that's fine because I've not only found an excellent roguelike at the very last minute, but it's sticking around after the Fest has wrapped up so we can all enjoy it a little longer.
Ball x Pit combines the auto-firing, skill-blending roguelike stylings of Vampire Survivors with a bouncy arcade homage to Breakout. As you venture into the city-sized hole left by an apocalyptic, city-destroying strike, the undead denizens march forth to force you back. To stop them, you'll spit out an endless stream of projectiles, which bounce and ricochet off your opponents, dealing damage with each strike.
