Fatal Claw

I loved it! It's a Hollow Knight-like but more accessible being not as difficult and more of a direct story. Everything about it is great, I didn't want it to end. Highly recommend! I got the best ending. I will say all guides are wrong. Do all the things, finish the game, and you only need to do the "second loop", which can be done in under 2 hours easily, to get the best ending. You can get all 3 cures in the second loop in the lab at the same time.

I bought this game because it was favorably reviewed. It turns out, it's a by the numbers metriodvania that doesn't do anything creative or different. [*]Progressions isn't particularly satisfying. If anything, it's a bit slow because the benefits don't feel impactful enough. [*]Story isn't interesting. Barely any character development, so you don't really care about anyone or anything. [*]Multi-phase boss fights are a game development trope that needs to die already. They get 1-2 full health refreshes while the player gets one health bar with a health ability that you have to charge to refresh? I don't know who thought that was a good idea, but no thanks. Didn't help that some of the boss mechanics were cheep which made some of the glaring gaps in abilities of the player character even more evident. [*]No dodge/dashing through enemies with I-frames. You have to dash away, jump and dash over, or use the specific dash attack that requires charges to use. It's just clunky and not well thought out. Overall, I'm disappointed because I went into it thinking I was going to like it based on the positive reviews and found it entirely bland and clunky in comparison to so many other metro…

Wonderful gameplay, beautiful graphics, cute animations. This game is just too good for any fan of the metroidvania genre to pass. Hint for the first time you're playing: do not be hasty to leave your first chest, stay inside that box for a few moments. It's worth it.

This is a good platformer/metroidvania. I really like how sticky your landing is with zero momentum, it feels very nice. HOWEVER, the Mirkham boss fight. Why did you suddenly make his damage increase in the second and third phase? Why is he suddenly doing two (maybe three) points of damage when he was only doing one? He does get red and angry but that doesn't indicate a damage spike and frankly, it's rude of you to do that. Otherwise, pretty good so far, controller feels excellent.

Amazing game. LOVE IT

Good game, would recommend
