This is my new game! I’ve only played a couple hours, but it’s turning out to be a really good metroidvania! Also the art style is really nice! It’s that really good pixel art from back in the 16-bit day. None of that wanabe-indie-jank that you see in 99% of all indie games. This game is pretty! Also the first time I’ve seen a day/night cycle happen in a 2d game.

Performance-wise all you need is a potato or a broken toaster, runs on both! So yeah, needless to say you’ll get a solid <your monitor’s refresh rate> frames per second. At least that’s what I’m getting on linux at 1440p. So I would imagine for sure on Windows and OSX.

Will post more later!

This game is on my list to buy and beat some day. It looks fun.

This game is actually quite good!..but I’d say it’s more of a trine than a metroidvania. Which isn’t a bad thing : ]

I just beat it. Had to take almost a week break from it though, that’s why it took me this long to beat a 15hr game.

Good all around. Graphics, sound, controls, and story. I’d buy another game from these devs. Especially since they actually bothered to make a linux build that actually runs properly! : ]
