    - Extremely long load times between scenes. Clearly not optimized for the Switch. It took literally 5 minutes to load until you can first move your character all the while showing a spinning axe loading icon which you will see throughout the game and blaring the developer names in giant letters as if this were the best game ever.

    - Bad controls. I can't get past the way the character runs. There is no acceleration or deceleration.

    Good idea with mediocre gameplay and bugs. Many times you'll see how the hit box of the enemies make no sense or lag with the jump and attack button. Is really disappointing because it would be a really interesting and worth game with an average gameplay, but unfortunately is too bad.

    A stylized action fighting game that you will easily get tired of, but on the other hand it can also entertain and reward patient players. [Issue#303]

    Bloodroots is madness in all the best ways… and in one of the worst. Difficulty is well balanced, and even when combat gets truly maddening, the experimentation the title offers is so much fun, it's hard to complain. However, when trying to platform through the many perilous environments, it becomes obvious where its faults lie. The camera and controls in these sections work against what's otherwise a very fun brawler, and drag the experience back from true excellence.

    Bloodroots is like a Hotline Miami set in a western world, with a little touch of Tarantino. Play it, kill and have fun.
