Dec 24, 2017Very good artwork, but the cutscenes are unbearable; they are very slow even when tapping, and they completely ruin the pace of the game. 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.

Jan 24, 2018Nightmare 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 However, strict adherence to outdated gameplay tropes and questionable narrative pacing make this a difficult game to recommend to everyone, especially with the abundance of other high quality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.
