This is a fantastic game to scratch that Hollow Knight itch while we all wait for Silksong. It's a little shameless, in terms of similarities...ok maybe a LOT shameless actually, especially in the early mossy area. I found myself saying, "Oh c'monnn!" more than once, but as far as clones go, I don't mind them, as long as they imitate a game I love and do it well. And this game definitely does that. Like it really just felt like I was playing a modded version of Hollow Knight. Combat's a little different, more parry focused, not for all the critters but it's good to learn early and use often. The parry window seems fairly generous. But yeah, I'm only like 5hrs in and I'll definitely update my review when I finish it, but I'm absolutely loving this game so far. I saw it had some Mixed reviews but when I checked, all the negative reviews I found had like less than an hour in, like they didn't even give it a chance. I think any Hollow Knight fan will love this game, as long as you're ok with it being a pretty blatant copycat, especially in terms of art style. I did run into some choppy frame rates in this dungeon area with sawblades, but that's the only issue I had. Will update with more info later, definitely gonna continue playing.

Disregard the obvious art inspirations. The combat is on a whole different level than the source material. The different counters feel very satisfying to execute. The temporary power up system is fun. The world is very immersing and beautiful. The bosses are very well-designed.

yea it is surely a great game, good combat mechanics and fun gameplay, but please, add invisibility frames while counter attack, most of the bosses have two or moe attacks in a row, which makes parry and counter mechanics dangerous, cause' when you parry first attack and start a counter animation, boss or enemy can immideantly start second attack and hit you easily

There's little about Deviator that hasn't been lifted directly from Hollow Knight - the art, music, much of the combat, skill progression, UI, enemy design, SFX, etc. It's so nakedly obvious that I almost feel guilty playing it--or I would, if Team Cherry was making any effort to communicate their progress on Silksong. Whatever's happening with the story seems like an afterthought, but I don't really care. The parry system is great and makes the game for me. Really enjoying it. If this game existed in a vacuum, I'd be really impressed, because it's well executed. The shameful theft of so many aspects kinda kills the experience though. Still, it's worth $6 for "We Have Hollow Knight at Home."

Aug. 2024

I'd say play Hollow Knight first, if you haven't. Then play this game. The developers were keeping Hollow Knight in their minds for sure when making this, likely for its popularity. Hollow Knight and Deviator are kind of similar in price and style. It's cool to see a new 2D game like Hollow Knight, especially since the second Hollow Knight game is taking as long as it's taking Bethesda to come out with the next Skyrim game.
