Ive been following this game since it was just a little ball guy on default cubes and a white background and today we have a excellent fast paced neon arcade-y pinball-y shooter (and it plays great on Deck). Has a good level of skill to it as my first run was sooo sloppy compared to the ones that followed. I guess the only negatives I can think of is no accessibility options like red outlines on enemies and no in-game button remap. Its just a solid game.

Its pretty fun however if it ever comes out they used AI for concept art Im dropping this game like a solid tungsten brick.

Cool Steam Deck bricking DRM bro

I wish I liked this game, I really do. I understand a hard game, I enjoy Nioh 2, but this just feels difficult in a unfun way. There are people who believe this is actually too easy and more power to you enjoy, im just not having fun. Skill issue? Maybe? But if im not having fun trying to get better what is the point? Idk man maybe ill come back and edit this review after bashing my head against it.

Fun game I just wish they threw more enemies at you or they had more hp so the upgraded combat system has some time to shine.

This is a entirely enjoyable time only held back by a few issues. Now I do wanna preface this by saying I will complete the game no problem but if most of these issues were fixed it could become something better

-Controls are not as responsive as id like. Trying to nail a enemy in the air while running away frequently leads me to slashing the other direction despite my quick flick towards the other side which usually works in action platformers. This leads into double jumping sometimes feeling awkward and not fully working

-Rolling is weird. It goes way far too fast but also isnt enough. LIke the big goblin enemy, your roll barely clears it but also fighting the goblin archer sometimes leads you to collision damage.

-Collision damage is a odd choice, its extremely punishing but in a bad way. I get youre supposed to use spacing and such but your roll sends you barreling combined with the attack pushing you forward leads to stray damage.

-Attacking slides you forward. Now this isnt a issue itself plenty of games have it BUT this game also has collision damage. The Goblin boss is not that fun as you sometimes are attacking her and just accidentally collide with her hitbox and oops damage. (Also she has far too much health at that stage of the game its just a long fight for no reason)

-Attacking locks you in the animation. You cannot flow freely into a roll during your attack which I think its strange for a game with spacing based combat, you want players to be committed but also push them forward during a attack and you cant reposition at all.
*A running singular slash would be best to add (Like megaman zero) and just remove the slide forward all together and make it so not holding a direction would give you the combo that or maybe holding down while attacking keeps you in place.

-Ranged attacks are awkward at best. I understand you dont want this option to dominate the game but it just doesnt feel great unless you can snipe enemies anyway leading to it just being extremely situational or just cheesy. They dont do alot of damage as to not cheese bosses or whatever but the option is a flip of the coin or level design. If youre gonna have it do such low damage let us move with it its not like it stun locks enemies anyway.
*You can split the ranged option into stationary but better damage or moving but lower damage so the player can pick what they think feels better.

-The ghost powerup is SO bad. just have it be its own button or something. Holding down a button then hitting another button just to pass through a a wall is so not well designed. It doesnt help that if you do anything else you pop out of ghost form or get hit or accidentally get too close to said wall. Ghost power up offers minimal gain at best and its not like you gain anything from it besides making a jump or two and going through walls. You have to give up the bomb ability for it as well.

-This one is just preference but maybe im early or something but so many scenes are just BJs while thats neat and all there isnt really much *pumping action* lmao it just seems kinda boring but again I could be wrong.

Again dont get me wrong I like the game but all these little things keep it from being a huge recommend and instead its just a "yeah its fun"

Been playing this game since day 1 and I think this game is pretty fun. Its a Third Person Shooter with abilities and extremely f2p friendly. Im unsure if its still a offer but they did give you one free 5 star to pick from after some good progress and with Fenny or Yao you can pretty much get through most of the game. Imo the only downside of this game is manifestations (a part of getting stronger) is time gated on 5 stars basically making sure you log in every day to make sure you progress. Ive only spent like maybe 20 bucks since launch buying the monthly pack (cause I really like the game) and im only missing 4 girls of which only 1 I didnt want so yeah thats pretty good. Give it a shot. Also works on Steam Deck!

You'd be surprised at how even just the word Spider evokes fear

This is the peak of gaming

At 1 dollar its a disservice to deny yourself this incredible experience. Just play it it wont take up much of your time or money and will leave you with more than you came in with.
