Middling Metroidvania
(Note: I got this game on giveaway from Amazon Prime) So there's a lot to like about this game, it's got great animation, some satisfying platforming, and lots of places to explore. The map in this game is great, clearly laying out where you are, where you've been, and if you've found everything in each area. But there's also a lot in this game that just doesn't work. The controls felt just a little bit awkward, the pacing of upgrades is sluggish, and the additions of some mechanics seem to be there just because they're in other games. I think the worst thing about this game is the boss battles. They seem to be needlessly hard, with the bosses being absolute bullet sponges. Meanwhile you need to dodge difficult to dodge attacks, and it becomes a game of attrition to see if you can play perfectly while whittling down the boss' health bar, and it just takes forever to do. And it's not like the boss battles are interesting, they just repeat the same few patterns over and over. Or if they do get more aggressive, it's the same attacks but with more bullets or whatever. But if you can get past the disappointing boss battles, the clunky controls, and the middling dialogue, you do have a somewhat respectable metroidvania here, if you've already played out your Hollow Knights, Shovel Knights, Oris, and all the other, better metroidvanias.
