Oct. 2024

Nice game with cool old-school aesthetic and gameplay It does have quite a few bugs tho - on one of my playthroughs i got locked out of progressing due to a boss refusing to do anything

Aug. 2024

Fun retro game inspired by Castlevania 3, Demon's Crest and classic NES adventure sidescrollers a la Faxanadu and some Metroidvania in there, too.

May 2024

I had a good time with this. Just hard enough and just complex enough to have me scratching my head, but not to the point of wanting to break things. Good ride.

May 2024

Another great gem from my favorite Brazilian developers. If you like Berserker, you will enjoy this one even more! Give it a chance now!!!
