Thousands of retro 2D platformers are infesting Steam, and "Neon Knight: Vengeance From The Grave" is just more pollution in a crowded market of terrible games. There are over 17,000 platformers on Steam, literally thousands (you can go see for yourself if you search for the platformer tag on the store, I'm not kidding). And this is far from being one of the best of those. This is a laughably awful action platformer from Eastern Europe, basically you're a warrior risen from the dead and you fight stuff in the underworld. Which involves some of the worst platforming I've seen in days. Combat is the focus over platforming, which you might think is a good thing but the combat is worse than the platforming. The platforming genre is pretty much obsolete... just a tiny number of professionally developed platformers exist on PC and offer any real value or interest to gamers (Silksong, etc). This is nowhere near being as good as Hollow Knight or Silksong. Even without a price tag, it's easy to see why gamers ignored this in favor of modern, professionally developed 3D games. This is offering nothing new or interesting, so it's easy to see why this failed. This is another case of …

This is more of a neutral review. The game plays alright, and it is decently entertaining with the way it is structured. However, there is nothing about the game that is particularly exceptional, and after a certain point it felt like I was just playing for the sake of playing. I know that the game is about to get an update that revamps a lot of things, so I am keeping this a positive review.

Nice - but... :) Please add option to disable this "music" or some kind volume bar to change the volume level for background music (current sound-bar was not working - maybe it was some bug - it was enable, but without any effects)...

Today this game caught my attention. I remembered all those games I played back in the 80s where you just run to the right, shoot some aliens and don't care if it's Tuesday or July. Very relaxing. Your brain gets a little holiday. And what do we have here? A black man running through the darkness to the right. Hmm, okay. Interesting. Then we reached some underground place with flashing lights. And I have to say, even though I'm not epileptic, this was horrible. Lights suddenly flashing, then going completely dark, then flashing again. Who thought this was a good idea? It actually made me feel sick. So I tried to quit. Ctrl+F4? Nothing. Alt+Enter? Nothing. Couldn't even switch to windowed mode. Fine, let's go to the menu and change the resolution or turn down the music. Nope. Nothing. I've been playing games for about 40 years and apparently we have reached the point where a game can have flashing lights that make you feel ill but still can't provide a normal way to quit or change the settings. Uninstalled. Straight onto my ban list. Terrible experience. I CAN NOT RECOMMEND TO MY FRIEND NOR MY GRANDMA.

Great game but look at that kitty, whoever pass by can pet it and give it a thumbs up. 🌹 Have a nice day :3 　　　 　　／＞　　フ 　　　 　　| 　_　 _ l 　 　　 　／` ミ＿xノ 　　 　 /　　　 　 | 　　　 /　 ヽ　　 ﾉ 　 　 │　　|　|　| 　／￣|　　 |　|　| 　| (￣ヽ＿_ヽ_)__) 　＼二つ
