    Nightmare Boy is an admirable first attempt by a two-person studio, with a compelling artistic vision backed up by wild and unexpected creativity. However, strict adherence to outdated gameplay tropes and questionable narrative pacing make this a difficult game to recommend to everyone, especially with the abundance of other high quality Metroidvanias on the market.

Controls are mediocre; sometimes, the game won't process a jump. The screen is also very confusing, as it shakes when an enemy is hit.
    Probably these problem can be solved, and that would make the game much, much better.    … Expand
