Combat and platforming is fun and it controls well. The pixel art style looks good. The difficulty might turn some players off. For those who enjoy retro platformers with old school challenge, this is one is perfect for you. Video Review: https://youtu.be/_iWtZFzC1DM

Not bad for someone who likes games that give them a bloody hardcore challenge, visually not the best and I hope the devs later on improve and become good enough to be less dependent on AI

x-- 7/10 --x Dev was kind enough to gift me a key, thank you dev ^^ [Even though I received it for free, below are my personal thoughts] It's an incredibly challenging game to play, even on Easy mode, but it does have a lot of charm to it which made the game very enjoyable! ++ Penguins! + Art style is very cute and adorable, and I loved meeting the different characters + Music was really good, definitely a highlight for me + Levels are not too long, and you can go back and replay any if you miss a collectable + Story was good as well, although I did get a bit lost because I assume this game is a sequel to a game I have not played previously - Game is really difficult and can probably challenge pro players, however getting perks at least makes it easier later on - Some of the transitional / overlaying screens are hard to see, so I missed a lot of info.
