Liked this game a lot, it was very refreshing. Loved the atmosphere, the art style. The puzzles are amazing, did not feel unfair in terms of difficulty and left me speechless In terms of combat, it felt difficult early, until you get used to it and you start unlocking upgrades. Definetly this game is a small gem, very underrated, will check out more things from the dev 🫡

Finished the game, 100% completion in the menu. If there's more to it, I couldn't find it. A fun little top-down exploration game. The vibes are immaculate from the drop. The puzzles are good and definitely require some out-of-the-box thinking but aren't stupid about it like some games are when they try similar things. There is combat, but it's very minimalistic - you start with 1 HP, You have a short-range spear, and your enemies also die in one hit. You have a little robot buddy who can shoot the nearest enemy once per room - but ammo is limited, so spamming it isn't advised for most of the game either. It's a good base, but unfortunately the further you go, the more frustrating it becomes. Hitboxes are WILDLY inconsistent for both you and your enemies. I was never able to get a proper feel for my range or the range of enemies, which lead to a lot of frustrating deaths. I also have to mention what I'm gonna call "Ambush Rooms" where you get jumped by a bunch of enemies and have to kill them all. Which is fine, conceptually, except where they land in the room is 100% random and they can and WILL land directly on top of you, with nothing you can do about it. These rooms also have…

I really REALLY enjoyed this game!! It's a mixture of hack n slash goodness and puzzle, with a good amount of secrets to find. I havent discovered all of them/ beat all of the optional rooms, but I did reach 'an ending'. The world building is so delightful, and I REALLY love the graphics. It's a simple story with a lot built into it, a truly lovely experience. I'll definitely be back to 100% it, but I wanted to give this game my recommendation!! Definitely try it if you like hack n slash gameplay with a lot of interesting mechanics and puzzles :)

Engaging game with a great art style, exploration and combat that may appear simple at the beginning but get quite interesting the more you proceed and some tricky but cool meta puzzles.

Puzzle game with great atmosphere and challenging action phases. I loved how the game feel cozy and also unsettling at the same time troughout the whole gameplay. -Exploration is encouraging and intuitive. -Combat section are good but the hitboxes and moveset are not very clear, I would say. -Puzzles are creative and funny but some of them were a bit too much; 4th wall stuff got a bit abused. -Art style and design is good, it creates a distinguishable atmosphere, clear and functional. Raccomanded if you like environmental puzzle games with a bit of challenge for your skill.

Pleasant little hack&slash with some puzzle elements. Or metroidvania light if you will, because it lacks any grind and respawning enemies but has that interconnected map. Some rooms with enemies falling randomly on top of you felt unfair, but upgrades really make you OP so nothing really difficult in this one.
