Hello friends. This is a Let’s Play video of “Backpack Survivors” demo version. Fight off swarms of monsters, fill your backpack with various weapons and items and battle your way through powerful bosses! Each run is different as you level up your character and unlock new weapons, items, relics and abilities.
Drawing on the charm of retro roguelikes and the thrill of modern bullet-hell action, Backpack Survivors delivers a satisfying symphony of chaos and strategy. Each run becomes a unique odyssey as players juggle an ever-growing arsenal—stacking weapons, relics and items to fill their backpack before descending into swarms of relentless monsters and screen-filling bosses. With an expansive talent tree shaping playstyle evolution, a surprising layer of inventory-tetris, and pixel-art finesse, it brings together RPG depth, arcade pacing, and roguelite unpredictability into a seamless, addictive ride.
