This game was exceedingly short, and it has it's host of issues, but overall I enjoyed it. Your sanctuary resets after every run, you keep the bonuses for completing objectives however, and I noticed that with the one flail weapon you can spam click and destroy the balance of any animal that attacks on melee. It's a short game but enjoyable.

The game has a lot of potential, it's very fun and has a lot of combos, i really loved collecting all the animals and trying the new weapons. There's a point that you feel you're getting super OP with all the passives and animals helping you, but the bosses give some fight back :)
The animations are fantastic, the game still has a some bugs, but that's normal since it got realeased last week. I'm super curious and i'm looking forward for more updates. (And maybe DLCs at some point)

I feel as though I barely scratched the surface of this game, but what I saw seriously impressed me. I was particularly drawn to the mechanical depth and how genuinely lovely this game looks. Kudos.

A great roguelite that allows unlimited customisation and buffs based on the cute animals that comes across your way. At the start of each round, you will get to place your animals and plants to gain upgrades which allows your base to grow (look much better) after each round.
Gameplay wise, it offers unique weapons and passives that make you want to try new builds after each round. I particularly like that there's no cap to how many passives you can have so you really get to see your character get really OP towards the end. The boss fights are really unique as each 'arena' fits its environment and the boss moves are 'fair' in a sense that they are lightly telegraphed so you have a chance to dodge it.
The story itself is interesting enough for you to want to read the every dialogue to really see how it unfolds, with the ending being 10/10.

Never Ending Beyond — A Charming Roguelite That Keeps on Giving
In a genre crowded with dungeon crawlers and deck-builders, Never Ending Beyond manages to carve out something genuinely fresh. The core conceit alone earns it points for originality: you play as the CareTakerUnit, an Android who pets animals to gain their powers and fight alongside them. It's a wonderfully absurd premise that the game commits to wholeheartedly, and it works.
The animal sprites are an immediate highlight. Each creature is rendered with a charm that makes you want to collect them all. Whether you're bonding with a fluffy mammal or a mythical beast, the visual personality on display is hard not to smile at.
Where the game truly shines, though, is in its build diversity. Each animal brings its own weapon and passive ability to the table, and mixing and matching these across your run is endlessly entertaining. Don't let the relatively short runtime fool you. The real draw here is in the experimentation. Testing different ability combinations, finding unexpected synergies, and refining your playstyle across multiple runs gives the game a replayability that punches well above its content length.
That said, not everything clicked for me personally. The farming mechanic in the home base, where you plant loot collected from your runs, felt like a detour I wasn't eager to take. It's a thoughtful addition for players who enjoy that slower, nurturing loop. But if patience for tending a garden isn't in your DNA, it may feel like an obligation rather than a reward. This is very much a personal gripe rather than a design flaw, and others will likely find it a welcome breather between runs.
Never Ending Beyond is a creative, cute, and surprisingly replayable roguelite that stands out by doing something different with a well-worn formula. If you can overlook the farming if it's not your thing, there's a lot to love here.
Verdict: Recommended

Pros:
-Lots of cute little animals
-Pretty fun gameplay
-Lots of potential combos
Cons:
-Pretty buggy with clunky controls, especially in building the garden.
-Very easy, I beat it on my 3rd try
-Pretty short/lackluster story. It was over so quick
Honestly, I absolutely love the concept and this has so much potential, but it just falls short. If this game had a long, in depth story, was much more difficult, and had all of it's bugs fixed, this would be on a completely different level.
Still, having said all that, for what it was worth, I still enjoyed what it had
