    Apart from the odd minor issue, Archvale has been a pleasure. There’s some real joy in exploring, in meeting and shooting new and strange creatures, and in enjoying the cute and cuddly visual style - even as the same boss stomps you multiple times. If you like bullet hell games, Archvale should certainly be on your radar.

    This game has great potential, it's music and art style is great, but it's too shallow and flawed for it's own good. I got into this game withThis game has great potential, it's music and art style is great, but it's too shallow and flawed for it's own good. I got into this game with the mindset that it's just another "Enter The Gungeon" wannabe. And I was wrong. But there are a couple kinks, like if you want to change the difficulty of the game or play local co-op instead of solo (or the other way around). You have to make an ENTIRELY new save slot just to do so. So no changing difficulty on the fly or any of that. But the main thing that got me to put down the game are the difficulty spikes. Not even half-way through the game you are hit with a massive road-block with enemies swarming you like flies and killing you in like 2 hits, and I'm playing on Normal mode mind you, or maybe I'm just bad at the game. Also the puzzle's are pretty lame. I appreciate that this game has Local Co-Op, but it's only Locally. So if you want to play this game with someone online, you can't, unless you use an application like Parsec or Steam remote play together. I am not saying that this game is bad, but it's just slightly flawed. If you are a sucker for bullet hells or you just want a game you want to play with a buddy (IRL), this is the game for you. But personally, this game isn't for me.… Full Review »
