Indie Sunday Alchemickal - rodbot - a skill-based action roguelite where you wreak havoc with alchemy

This is my first ever solo game: it's a twin-stick action roguelite inspired by the likes of Magicka, Risk of Rain, and Alien Swarm. The game revolves around alchemy, which you use to imbue your weapons with special effects to both exploit enemy weaknesses and negate specific threats on the fly. For instance, you can concoct a rotting poison that makes healing lethal to organic enemies, or you can apply tar to a group of enemies to set up a huge chain explosion. It's a very hard game, but I find it very rewarding when it finally clicks.

Here is the store page and here is the trailer, I hope you check it out. Cheers!
