The good news is that I believe Nova Drift is in a good position to provide both experiences, thanks its modular challenge modes.

Others want there to be greater limitation, such that they are required to adapt, overcome, and build on their toes. I'm keen to provide that extra "roguelite" element for those that want it. And so, I have concocted... Wild Metamorphosis: Challenge Mode Unlocked!"
