    A good metroidvania game but too difficult to my taste from the Overgrowth Boss, in fact, i found the game too difficult to enjoy.

    PROS: Fun to play + Interesting gadgets + Clear map + Very good and varied music

    CONS: Too difficult from the middle of the game + Sometimes you don't know where to go

    Metroidvania is my fave genre so thought id give this a try. Starts off kinda middle of the road. Gets a bit better then you get lost and spend hours searching where to go next or how to get to a highlighted (doesnt make it any easier) place on the map. I dont mind backtracking but this is dead end after dead end after dead end. You can literally spend hours wandering around and getMetroidvania is my fave genre so thought id give this a try.

I dont mind backtracking but this is dead end after dead end after dead end. You can literally spend hours wandering around and get nowhere.. or worse, get stuck in an area you cant get out of. The graphics would be fine ... if only you could tell which pixels were backround and which were foreground. Its easy to think a line of background pixels is a platform and fall or walk into a wall you thought was in the background. Boss fights so far are all manageable but the "rewards" are scant. Ive just beaten a boss that gives me no power up and actually makes the game infinitely harder by turning on all the invincible robots and defense turrets in the whole map. . Im all for a challenge but for all the things this game gets right the devs forgot that the game should be fun too. Expand

    Environmental Station Alpha didn't reinvent the wheel when it comes to Metroidvania games, but it certainly helped satisfy my appetite. The amount of secrets and post-game crypticness might be great for some, and it does extend the playtime quite a bit, but as a completionist I found it to be more legwork than I'd like. Call me crazy, but I don't like tons of cryptography in my games.
