Awesome Game
Amazing quirky, but extremely well crafted, metroidvania where you play a non-human creature in a non-human world. The storytelling, music and atmosphere are absolutely exquisite. If you're expecting an uplifting story, this is not it. This is a tale of devastation and revenge. While the protagonist is silent, you'll get details about what happened though other speaking characters, 'monuments' and scrolls detailing various parts of the world. As you get more details, you'll likely share the protagonist's indignation and want revenge. The game does a good job at making you sorry for what happened to her world and there is definitely a social commentary buried under the game. There are various environments with unique terrain to navigate and a lot of creatures to tackles, each with a unique feel that are a natural fit for their environment. Everything is very organic in this game and flows very well together. Like any well crafted metroidvania, there is some backtracking to do as new abilities will unlock new areas of the map to explore. The protagonist's ability to attack and move by flying/ramming into select objects and opponents is rather unique and interesting which, combined with the alien organic feel of the world, contributes to give the game a very distinct feel. I started playing this game with a controller, then tried a mouse and I'll say that this is one of the very few games in this genre that will give you a superior experience with a keyboard and mouse I found. Clicking on things you want to ram into in quick succession works far better. I found the difficulty of the game well balanced. The game was not easy and I died my fair share, especially during boss fights, but even on the fights that I had to retry 5-10 times, I always felt I was not too far from winning and the next try would be the one. Assuming you can appreciate the "doom and gloom" theme of the game, I heavily recommend it. Its memorable and likely to leave a lasting impression.
