Basically the pinnacle of a proper roguelike. Hack and slash to the heavens.... literally.

How the hell are games getting so good these days
Seriously, this platformer is not what it seems at first glance

----

Amidst the incredible level design and tight controls there exists an unbelievably profound commentary on self discovery and depression, which is honestly unheard of within a 2d platformer. I hesitate to say whether the gameplay or the story is the highlight here, because the two are so inseperable that it's hard to tell which compels me to keep climbing the most.

To clarify, that's a good thing, because on their own both elements have struck an amazing balance. This game is all about dying until you get it right, which might be offputting for some but rest assured there is a distinct lack of frustration attached to this game. Each level has this difficulty ramp-up within the individual chapters, culminating in a very steady difficulty curve leading up to the final level's big finale. It feels very natural, but you're still going to die a lot.

And if the base game wasn't enough for you, there are also hard mode versions of every major chapter which seriously put your skills to the test in a completely remixed version of the vanilla map - without all of the collectibles (thank god).

Music is a 10/10 - it does exactly what it needs to do and then some

Sound design is a 10/10 - Nothing sounds out of place and all of it is unique from level to level

Gameplay is a 9/10 - Lowest score here - only because of a couple non-intuitive aspects of character movement which don't become apparent until very late game. Extremely solid other than a few minor gripes of mine

Artstyle is wonderful. You'll be drawn in by the uniqueness of every level.

Story is, surprisingly, wonderful. No number value because it's hard for me to rate in that way. You'll either adore the characters and relate heavily to the main character's struggles, or not.

Conclusion?
Buy this sh*t

This game is crispy.

Breath of fresh air in terms of platformers. It has rather unique combat. I like it a lot.

The art is 10/10
As is the character and boss design
