✦ AI summary

Players praise Arcadia's stylish 2D art, fluid platforming mechanics, and innovative character-switching system that adds variety to exploration and combat. However, they note significant issues including technical bugs (launch problems, softlocks), unresponsive controls during collisions, confusing menus, and poor automated translation that detract from the experience, with some recommending waiting for patches or a sale before playing.

A decent metroidvania overall. Changing characters at any time. depending on the situation, brings some variety to the game, exploration and backtracking feel rewarding and controls are smooth. Arcadia could use some QoL improvements, in the menus which are a bit confusing and hard to navigate and also during collisions where controls become unresponsive when you're running into a wall or platforms sides. Maybe wait for a sale.

A challanging and fluid metroidvania game with a cool anime look for and intense platforming. Explorations is fun and highly revenued with tons of collectibles to get. Unusual and original storyline. Original "switching" characther's mechanic and skill evolution and great animation of the main characthers which give you a strong impulse to contnue with the exploration. Recommended for a fun and challanging adventure.

The game doesn't even launch unless you rename the executable and the data folder, the translation was clearly automated (within the first minute there's an instance of "macchina" meant as "machine" but translated to "car"), and there's a smattering of serious bugs such as softlocks when the porcupine(?) character sometimes gets stuck at the beginning and end of the pipes he's supposed to roll through. But even ignoring all of that, what little of the game I managed to see was uninteresting at best.
