The game is a fun but shorter metroidvania with lots of interesting callbacks to old atari games and a great soundtrack.

While it does have some of the story of the original Yars game overall it plays expectedly more on the Shantae games though pretty expected as well. Unfortunately there are still a few minor bugs here that I'm sure will be fixed but at this time can be a little annoying thus the four star instead of five star rating. The gameplay/levels/soundtrack all fit nicely and for the price a great deal and one that shouldn't be overlooked.
