"I can't pry myself from the computer": New roguelike hailed as "a mix of Vampire Survivors and Risk of Rain 2," and I'm starting to see why it has 4,000 "Very Positive" Steam reviews after just one week

Megabonk.

I find myself curiously enamored by Megabonk. An absolutely chaotic roguelike best-described as '3D Vampire Survivors', it's a bonkers experience from start to finish, and despite it being very, very weird, I'm being pulled back to do another run over and over again.

I'm not the only one. Megabonk's peak concurrent player count has topped 36,000 players (thanks, SteamDB), which is extremely good for a self-published indie with cryptic mechanics and PS1-style graphics. FPS GOAT Shroud says it might be his GOTY, and it's sitting just under 'Overwhelmingly Positive' status on Steam, with 94% positive reviews across almost 4,000 ratings in under a week, one of which sums things up nicely: "I can't pry myself from the computer."
