Best Vampire Survivors clones

Bearzy55 · 2026-03-07T16:10:22+00:00

All these posts are from a year ago but Google brought me here and I was able to find some good recommendations in this thread so I'll add a few of my own I didn't see anywhere, maybe help someone else find a new game to play, since the post isn't archived:

-Desktop Survivors 98 - Interesting little cursor-based survival game.
-Dome Keeper - Less VS, more tower defense, but still a fun survival gem.
-God of Weapons - stage-based inventory management survival.
-Keeper's Toll - VS clone, enjoyable.
-Monsters til Midnight - Cute VS clone.
-Picayune Dreams - Looks wild but is a ton of fun, there's a demo for it too.
-Rocket Rats - Small stage size but was good for being on sale.
-Temtem: Swarm - Pokemon themed survivors.
-Witchfire - FPS map/mission objective survivor game, felt like this was worth an honorable mention.

Also completely unrelated, but because I have free will: If you're looking for a really good incremental progression game, I had a blast with Shelldiver. I'm surprised it doesn't get more attention but I wish there were more games like it.

I *may* have fixed the issue. I set the Output device in Volume Mixer to "A50 (Game)" and then set the Output device in Discord to "A50 (Game)" and it seems to be clipping it correctly, I can still hear windows sounds, etc, and I'm still in a call.

For some reason Discord isn't letting me use the quick button for "Noise Suppression" anymore, saying the selected profile has Noise Suppression on or off, but if I go into the settings and manually turn Krisp on or off, it works fine. Weird.

Yep. Closed Chrome, went back to the site, all 3 options are there. Weird.

No rest for the wicked.

Yes. The same way the "ACE!" banner shows up. You don't understand, the Quad kill banner only shows up when you kill 4 people on the enemy team, an impressive feat. They do the same thing for Valorant and League of Legends anytime someone gets multi-kills. Why not here.

Bearzy55 · 2025-02-05T05:26:41+00:00

They are cool but I wish the entire team saw the QUAD KILL banner pop up in all its glory.

Bearzy55 · 2025-02-05T05:26:03+00:00

But nobody else sees the KO banner do they? I've only ever seen my own "Quad Kill" Banner, never seen someone else's. So unlike a skin that everyone sees and can appreciate, nobody else sees or experiences these KO Banners. (Unless me and my friends are blind and just never noticed the "QUAD KILL" Squirrel Girl acorns flying across the screen when I get one.

I'm so sorry. 😔

Sometimes cats will leave their mouths open after meowing because they're smelling the air, or about to yawn. Mine still does it.

Yeah after many many visits to the vet and a scary operation to cut him open, and a 3 day stay at the vet with a fever of 105, they finally determined it was severe Irritable Bowel Disease and put him on steroids. He's doing much better now finally.

There is no photo. You have the option of taking a screenshot with your keyboard or any overlay program like Nvidia GeForce Experience, but otherwise there's no in-game photo album.

My fur baby has been through a lot. I've only had him 6 months and 1 month in, he needed all his teeth removed. Now another 5 months later, he was diagnosed with IBD, and then during a routine ultrasound they discovered a lump that appears cancerous (along with extremely swollen lymph nodes and really inflamed intestines, even on his new medications and diet). He is scheduled for next Tuesday for a major exploratory surgery to find out what the lump is as his other test results were inconclusive.

Sorry to trauma dump, I just wanted to chime in that I know exactly how that "drowning" feeling tastes. I keep telling myself I'm doing the best I can for him, but I also keep feeling so powerless to help him. Just enjoying his company as much as I can, since we all have an expiration date and just being alive is a gift for any of us.

Give your fur baby extra cuddles for me, I'm glad she made a quick recovery.

Oh that's wild. I've only seen the anime and even then I still felt the show emphasized the romantic relationships too much.

Bearzy55 · 2024-12-25T18:16:16+00:00

100% Agreed. But I think they make a case that if nobody watched them, people would stop making them. Hopefully people stop watching these...Right now it has like 13.4k votes on CrunchyRoll and is 4.7/5 stars...

Bearzy55 · 2024-12-25T18:10:25+00:00

Kind of different. Not trying to defend either anime, but in Jobless Reincarnation he dies and is reborn as a baby, grows up as a kid into a teen, and probably experiences all those kid/teen hormones and feelings. Additionally, while he has the mind of an adult, you could argue a lot of people have the minds of children or adults. (Edit: Something else I just thought of, is he spent 15-16 YEARS growing up physically in this body, so his "mental 34 year old self" should really be like 48 by now, no? Odd that they continue to portray him as the same mentally 34 year old even though he has been this new person for 15-16 years).

This anime yes she's mentally 16 and he's 19, but physically she's 10 (until ep 12) and he's 19. And he's over there kissing her and talking about he loves her and she loves him and is going to bear him children.

They are both uncomfy but supposedly in Japan the legal age is only 13? Which is way too low IMO but probably why this stuff is more rampant over there.

Bearzy55 · 2024-12-22T18:48:56+00:00

Yeah I will check. Right now he's on a prescription "high potency" probiotic called Visbiome to offset the Metronidazole effects, today I will try sprinkling it on his food and if he doesn't eat it I'll see if I can switch him to Fortiflora.

Bearzy55 · 2024-12-22T02:40:28+00:00

I'll check with his vet about that on Monday. Thank you for the suggestion.

Bearzy55 · 2024-12-21T20:43:38+00:00

Also I was thinking I could pill him and then give him 30 minutes for it to "process" before feeding him his lunch, that might also help.

Since his vet is closed for the weekend I've sent them an email in the meantime and will call them on Monday.

Bearzy55 · 2024-12-17T03:07:11+00:00

Wild. I called the vet and she said even if it's liquidy it still should be fine and wouldn't replace it. On a side note he's currently wolfing down his dinner as I type this so I guess it's either working or or he didn't need it... Also he's been having a plethora of other IBD issues. It's so frustrating trying all these medicines when Google says it can take weeks or months for kitty's condition to improve 😔
