fun but very challenging

Fun game, but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ if it isn't hard! Hey devs, ever heard of i-frames? I'll update my review as i go through the game.

Game is a lot more playable and developer is very responsive. I think learning the flying pillbugs are not a boss battle was sad for me since that was the only thing blocking my completion of the tutorial.

This game is so consistently inconsistent, infuriatingly endearing, and horrifically hilarious that it is difficult to explain why I LOVE this game The metroidvania style is not so supported by the dark color pallet this game sports, making portions of the game confusing and frustrating to go through. Several paths are hidden while others do not even exist making moments of "you'd think there was something there huh". Several doors and levers are not extremely visible making moments where I question if I got soft locked. The combat requires ridiculously fast reaction time or intricate knowledge of how an enemy functions. Bosses have multiple phases/attack patterns that have a "blink and you'll miss it" wind up. The healing system is forgiving enough and fun to play around. The HUD lacks a lot of information that I would want it to have: -titles of the collection, map and collectables -descriptions of several collectables / ERB unlockables -just a general tutorial of ALL controls -turning the blood bar into an actual bar That being said the game has provided a lot of things that I have wanted from it. I have enjoyed this game to a point where it will keep me coming back.
