I like that FTL is in the list, it still is the kingpin of the roguelite genre imo. The list is way too short though, games I missed in the list the most are:

  • Nova Drift (Incredibly well made Asteroids style action-roguelite space shooter)
  • Nuclear Throne (Can´t make a best of roguelites list without this one if you want it to be complete)
  • Children of Morta - Family Trails (One of the best action-rpg, dungeoncrawler roguelites out there, might even be the best if you ask me, especially in couch-coop)
  • Steredenn (R-Type style action-roguelite space shooter)
  • Sunless Sea (Sailship exploration roguelite in a dark, Cthulhu inspired scenario)

I'm one of the weirdos that liked Into The Breach more than FTL but I've been meaning to give FTL another shot.

I enjoyed ITB, it´s a great game but FTL is my favourite game of all times, only game that comes close to FTL is Dead Cells imo.

I’ve been meaning to give FTL another shot.

Good for you! I very much recommend reading a few guides for a smooth start.
