New game released today, Cramped Room of Death. Looks like a pretty strong DROD homage to say the least, although it certainly is not an exact copy with how objects block the spear. Anyone try it yet? It was also released on the Switch.

Game on.

I played the demo years ago, and really liked it. Best spike traps I've ever seen.

Haven't played it yet. But I liked what I saw.

There is another nod to DROD in the story - some enemy destroyed the main character's *sword*... but they didn't know that he also had a spear!

If they destroyed his puppy, I'd say the game was inspired by John Wick. But since it's a sword...
