    I backed this project on Kickstarter and I've seen it since the beginning. In my opinion it's a good effort from a new studio, trying to present a different approach to the game. For people looking for a new experience, I recommend the game. Of course is far for perfect, but a good start for this guys.

    I loved history and the graphics are wonderfull. The difficulty grows as the story raisins, and each scenario seems a picture. Hopefully this soon for the PS Vita.

    This game is a valuable and great addition to the metroidvania genre. It is very enjoyable from start to end. The art style and platforming are superb, I urge you to give it a try, because it has a really good story that deserves to be told.

    The game is fun! The difficulty is just right. Not too many collectibles, The controls are pretty much perfect. It feels great! It's colorful & stylish. Animations are well done and great graphics, lots of tiny details and effects, love it! The map system is perfect i loved the backtracking idea.
    Congratulations on a fantastic game!

    The art style in Red Goddess: Inner World is majestic. Beautiful colors make everything around you really stand out giving you some nice eye candy as you play. The gameplay is typical of this genre of game. You are in a 2D world and will face several platforming sections that get more difficult as you progress. I've enjoyed so much!

    the game is incredibly fun. I streamed it for a while for my small viewer base and they certainly seemed to enjoy it. All in all, I'm definitely enjoying the experience and I'm definitely glad I put faith into your project early on. My only regret is that I couldn't help more. All the best guys!

    I love the artwork in this game and it's pretty fun. Soundtrack is also pretty cool.
    If you’re looking for an action-platformer with a deep story, then Red Goddess, is for you!

    I just bought this game through PSN yesterday, and this is a very awesome game, it's like Outland, Ori and Guacamelee, in one game.
    Not bad at all !!

    What started off full of promise, has crashed & burned - leaving a bitter taste in this player's mouth.

    Combat feels unsatisfying and the navigation just feels convoluted and not really...interesting. A shame, this game could've been so much more.

    Ultimately, Red Goddess: Inner World fails to deliver. It feels like a rushed concept, like the developer ran out of money and decided to release an optimised, unpolished title.

    Whilst looking like eye candy, the game itself offers little variety in visuals, the controls are just gosh darn awful and there's no excuses for releasing the game so woefully underdeveloped. Dips in frame rates, scenery pop-up and awfully long loading times, this should not be in the store in its current state and Yanim Studio need to learn a lesson here. If I'd have backed their Kickstarter campaign, I'd honestly want my money back. After reading all of the hype around the campaign a year ago, it really did pique my interest, they obviously have a great PR company behind them, because this is not the game that was originally promised.

    It feels like a compromise has been made, to rush the game to store at a certain date without fear of repercussion. With a bit more love, care and attention, Red Goddess: Inner World would be a beautiful title; the strong narrative needs strong gameplay and as it stands, it's not delivered.

    Yanim Studio, you need to go back to the drawing board. Your first game fails to meet expectation.    … Expand

    Boggles the mind as to how this passed the Sony QA and I only wish that the PS Store had a refund policy, like Steam. Woefully underdeveloped and disgracefully rushed out to the store. To sum up in three words?

    DO NOT BUY.

    Red Goddess has beautiful visuals and an interesting rage and fear transformation system. It had potential, but sadly, a great game is buried under a pile of problems.

    Red Goddess: Inner World is a metroidvania with some nice ideas and a lot of glitches and game design problems.

    The later platforming sequences are frustratingly difficult, the load times are excruciatingly protracted, the combat is sloppy, and sometimes the game just breaks. Jumping up walls and across crevices can be fun, but that's not nearly enough when everything else is such a chore to play.
