Our take on Skellies Ain't Scary
The defining structure is the hub between dungeon runs: it holds achievement trophies and unlockable equipment, and that equipment can affect later attempts.
What is Skellies Ain't Scary?
Skellies Ain't Scary is a bullet hell roguelike with minimalist graphics.
Runs take players through dungeon floors filled with enemies and increasingly dangerous challenges. Combat centers on dodging enemy bullet patterns while firing guns with unlimited ammunition and one-second reloads. The dungeon contains more than 25 guns and more than 50 items, including items with special abilities. Two item slots allow combinations that affect weapon play.
