I don't know how they did it, but every expectation I had for Silksong has been met or exceeded, even after 7 years of building up hype. The game is difficult for sure and has an unforgiving learning curve for Act 1, but the game is quite fair after the change of most double damage hazards into single damage. Biggest tip I can give anyone who's struggling is use your tools. They do a ton of damage, especially in Act 1.
