Hammerwatch Discussion / Re: Questions regarding similarities to Gauntlet

Hey thanks for the input both of you. And yes Seth I did not ask for things to be easy haha XD rather, i asked for a mind- numbingly difficult game like the one ive grown to like so much. I am deffinitely interested in the Reverse hp regen, and even if it's not the same challenge level, it would be nice to have the same style of gameplay in a newer game. So thanks again, it looks like i'll be buying it.

Oh P.S. before someone corrects me on this, in my original post i said health/timer, but it's actually health/hunger. I just always thought of it as a timer since food is so scarce haha.

Hammerwatch Discussion / Questions regarding similarities to Gauntlet

So I've heard this game is similar to Gauntlet, which immediately caught my attention as i have fond memories of playing it back on the NES and it would be great to relive it in a modern fashion. I guess i just have a couple questions regarding difficulty. To any one that has played the NES version of gauntlet as well as Hammerwatch, Is Hammerwatch truly as daunting, difficult, and unforgiving as Gauntlet? Like for example, in Hammerwatch, does your health bar rapidly decrease over time, as it is also the timer for the game? If not, is there a way to turn it on? Any input would really be helpful, thank you.
