Noita never reached the levels of fame and notoriety that it deserves. It should be mentioned in every “Best Roguelike” game list.
Now, it’s definitely rated high by those who play it, with Overwhelmingly Positive reviews, but it never got its mainstream spotlight.

I love me some noita, but I feel like it is maybe a little too hard and inscrutable to have huge general appeal, even amongst roguelikes

Yeah, I got it because it looked cool and I liked the concept. I like to play it, but it’s really hard and some situations feel unfair. If you get rolling, its a spectacle, though

It’s just that the game doesn’t fuck around. You could be a literal demigod: have every immunity perk, have multiple force fields, have infinite health, wand that can kill literally everything(harder than it seems), soar literally through the world with your black hole teleportation wand - and die because you stepped into chaotic polymorphine that turned you into a fish.

That’s why you need to trip on mushrooms until all polymorphine, chaotic or otherwise, is turned to something harmless. Then if I recall correctly there is really only one enemy that can polymorph you, and you can be pretty much guaranteed to be safe.
