...and I'm still let down. This should be a Flash ha-ha, not a "game" that costs money.
Fun little game with a fresh concept. Recommend.
HK is one of the game that you're "supposed to like". Dude, it's a heckin SOULSLIKE METROIDVANIA with le charming hand drawn animation and heckin cute bugerino aesthetics [soyboy face]! Well apart from the visuals it doesn't really have to offer much else.
The credits are a bit too long... but you can fast-forward them so it doesn't really count as a con. Very competent Zelda ALTTP homage.
...but still pretty good, even though it's "merely" a competent (the most competent?) Earthbound/Mother "fangame". The soundtrack is AMAZING however, no doubt. One of the real drawbacks (subjective) is the excessive (compared to Earthbound) amount of self-aware "le randumb" humor (thankfully toned down for Deltarune). Thing is, the Japanese don't understand sarcasm and irony, so if you are Japanese and see a man that has turned himself into a dungeon (or a pickle), you're supposed to find the idea "serious" funny in a manner one laughs at normal sitcoms (or not), instead of ridiculous in a post-meta-ironic way. Or maybe you should be admiring his... determination?
Down to the great pixel art, worldbuilding and amazing soundtrack. The enemies are a bit too bullet spongy though (like in Risk of Rain), making the game more puzzle-like than HM.
A match made in hell.
I mean, if fucking Ninty did a collab with you, you know you struck gold.
