Soviet Souls

Simple controls but with difficult gameplay. Polished. Fun. Frustrating (in a good way). Good boss battles. The story is very amusing. Not like "Dark Souls" except for the philosophy of being unapologetically challenging. Beautiful artwork, and the game is longer than I expected. It's capped off with a good soundtrack, too. Is this truly these developers' first game? It's great!

Lots of negatives. The most relevant thing, the thing that made me really annoyed and decide to quit it, is the controls, the fact that you can't change them, and the fact that the game doesn't tell you what they are. Just "FIRE" button. Like, what the ♥♥♥♥ is the "FIRE" button? What? I mean, I figured out what the "FIRE" button is, but holy ♥♥♥♥, that's so bad.

Overall a good game, but certain i would say characters need buffs and the controls need to be interchangeable as certain players may be put off by the "unorthodox" controls, lastly the early game levels can be a bit dull and feel like long tutorial but i feel playing a game for less than a hour and leaving a review is unfair to the creator and the game.
