Nov. 2024

Fun, concise little metroidvania. I have to admit, the initial 2-3 hours did not leave the greatest impression on me, the close-relation to Hollow Knight is very evident from the get-go and didn't inspire much confidence, but I pushed on due to a friend's recommendation, and I'm glad I did! This game was a delight, and I especially loved the late-game areas/exploration. Nothing groundbreaking, but the basics here are done well.

haiku the robot is, in my opinion, the best metroidvania since hollow knight. it's the only game i've encountered so far with the same type of nonlinearity, which should be enough for you to play this on it's own. you've seen how good the graphics are already, and the combat isn't quite as smooth as hollow knight, but my main criticism of haiku is the length. my full, almost 100% playthrough clocked in at under 10 hours, which isn't a lot, especially considering the price. i should mention though, those were some of the longest hours in my life, and i mean that in the best way possible.

This is a solid, basic metroidvania. It's basically HK with easier bosses (although some might take a few tries). The movement is very polished and the powerups are basic (dash, double jump, rappel is the equivalent of crystal rocket thing from HK). The game gets especially more fun once you get these abilities. Two complaints: 1. Getting around is a hassle - fast travel trains are too far apart. 2. The game lacks direction early on. There are some hints from NPCs. But what is vexing is there is a chip-slot ability you can use to mark where you need to return once you get a different powerup. Problem is, there are some places that it doesn't mark - so you think you must currently have the ability to make it past that point, except you don't. There are a couple spots like this. Wasted a lot of time trying everything and approaching from different angles, when it was a waste of time.

Straightforward and fun metroidvania. If you like Hollow Knight you should definitely give it a try!

Feb. 2024

Seriously underrated and suffering from the same handicap most metroidvania games these deal with: hollow knight comparisons. The world is large and fun to explore with beautiful visuals and a muted, but still very solid solid sound track. I think the character/enemy designs are interesting. The platforming elements are fun, and it feels very rewarding solving the puzzles. I do have a few issues with the combat--it feels a little clunky at times--but the movement makes up for it for the most part. The boss fights are not too difficult, making it feel more like a fun, exploration game. Overall, I had a lot of fun.
