Beautiful and hard

I'm playing this game on switch and the only reason I write here is because of all the negative comments. I don't know what the game was like in 2019 when most comments were written but by now it seems to work flawlessly (since I only have it on switch I can't say anything about Kb/M or controller support but since it runs on the switch controllers I'd assume the problems have been solved). Another thing: The game itself is hard as others have mentioned. But you don't lose everything when you die, it's just your current equipment and blessing you found along your last run. There is a weapons smith in your home base for whom you'll earn or find new crafting recipes so you don't need to start over with the same basic sword and shield again and again. Also there are skills which you can unlock with experience points which will persist over your fight / kill / die / repeat-cycle. Yes it reminded me of blasphemeus too but I found this one more interesting, more beautiful and more varied in combat. I'd rather compare it with dead cells though you won't see the kind of flow you often get going in dead cells due to those nice time or streak based buffs. I'd suggest you give it a try when it's on sale :-)
