I am quite confused by the description of the game. AFAIU the term "roguelite" originated as a way to refer to games such as Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, which were more forgiving than typical roguelikes ("Mystery Dungeon" is essentially the Japanese term for roguelike). But not many people used it that way, later it got popular when it was used by Rogue Legacy, and then it started being used to refer to games with roguelike elements (which were not literally like Rogue); and then the roguelike community stopped fighting about games with roguelike elements being called roguelikes, which caused some people to refer to games with metaprogression as roguelites. So what is meant by "heavily inspired by the roguelite genre"? People are using this word in many ways. Anyway, it seems much less similar to Rogue than PMD, so the name PokéRogue looks confusing...
