This is maybe the worst game I've ever played. Starting off, the spritework is stiff and lifeless, only having a few sprites for our protagonist for the whole game.

The level design is horrible, never telegraphing anything you're supposed to do and either simple or frustrating at every point. Your moveset is agonizingly simple for the vast majority of the game, and by the time it finally becomes more complex, the game breaks You get a simple dash and that's it for a while.

I have played this game for only two hours and i already love it . There are - and +. The music and those sounds are awesome just like the look of this game. The story is simple and interesting. The combat is not that difficult but it does require some skills to have. However the booby traps and parkour can make you a bit angry. Maybe i am just not that good , thats just my opinion. But overall I definitely recommend this game for anyone.4 found this helpful
