    I honestly don't know much about this game but I'm a huge fan of retro 2D platformer games. Looks like a decent title and really look forward to spending time to play it.

    Excellent side scrolling rogue like, lots of creativity with the abilities although it's a little skimpy early on with the permanent unlock points.

    For those who purchased this game on release date, contact the distributor if you didn't get the booklet. The game is SUPER confusing at first, but you can get the hang of it quickly, but not easily. The challenge is TOUGH; this game will test your patience and how quick your hand-eye coordination is. There is little, to no hand holding, the graphics, although simple, are beautiful, the music is alright, and overall, it is a worthy purchase, especially if you like your games with tough challenge.

    Play only an hour so far but I enjoy it so far, metroidvania style with good art style. If you like shovel knight, hollow knight, or metroidvania games you should consider this one.

    The grind of the game was really fun at first. But then it feels like the difficulty scales up real fast. I understand the type of game that it is but it feels like I hit a wall that I can’t pass. Might come back to it later

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
