    If you’re an experienced player, you will likely take just about 10 hours of gameplay from starting the game to finishing it for the first time, though most of it will be spent replaying the first two worlds. It could very well be that the game truly begins once you master the game and start playing it for the high score, but I personally didn’t have the patience to get to that point, nor did the decent controls pull me forward the way that other challenging games have in the past. Whether this is a worthwhile purchase for you comes down to how much tolerance you have for highly punishing mechanics so that you can push through to the enjoyable sense of mastery it eventually offers.

    The roguelike elements drag it down a touch, but this is a memorable action platformer whose surreal visuals work in tandem with some fun 2D combat.

Imagine a game that takesI really wanted to like this game, interesting art style, procedurally creates levels, etc., but it is impossible. Imagine a game that takes no effort to give you any guidance, not even the absolute minimal instructions, controls that are clumsy and such a poor variety of enemies (or actually even things to do) that it wouldn’t be out of place being free-to-play. Imagine how annoying and frustrating that would be. This game is poor, it’s a low level attempt to do something greater; an aspiration that it does not achieve at all. Your money and time are much better spent elsewhere. Full Review »
