The Spell Brigade

Following the huge success of Vampire Survivors, which impressed both critics and players despite its sparse presentation, and which recently surprised with a huge Castlevania DLC, many game developers tried their hand at a similar concept - a kind of reverse bullet-hell with rogue-lite upgrades, in which you have to survive as long as possible. Brotato by Blobfish from Switzerland and Halls of Torment by Chasing Carrots from Stuttgart were successful in this 'new genre' and brought some original ideas to the table, similar to the hugely successful Deep Rock Galactic Survivor, Soulstone Survivors or Death Must Die.
