I can't see shit from the screenshots on their site. So dark, so much contrast...

If LSD is anything like in the movies or something, then I guess even that wouldn't help :\

I found watching the trailer to be superior to seeing what's going on compared to the screenshots. The LSD would likely help with all the shiny and colorful effects with magic...maybe...

Might as well give it a shot though if you've any fancy for Roguelikes, Diablo, Gauntlet, etc. That the developments have been largely based on player feedback to fix stuff and improve the end user experience, and quick about it, really is something special for a Roguelike where the above can take months at a time.

From my limited experience, it seems kind of like a fusion of a roguelike and Abuse. Move in two dimensions with the keyboard, aim with the mouse, and trudge through procedural maps gathering random loot. It's got potential.
