A great game that 0% deserves to be in the '< very positive' bracket, there are unfortunately an influx of shìtters that bought this game that can't handle learning anything that is out of the ordinary from a modern action game. Reasonably difficult on the first playthrough on normal / hard, but gets very engaging and fun once you're trying to 1cc the game. Not even that bad considering there's only 6 stages, lots of healing items, and relatively simple bosses. Just as good if not better than Tengo Project's other games, doesn't deserve the flak.

game is good and deserves a way higher rating, but 70% of people now can't play any game that doesn't let you cancel your sword swings into a frame 1 parry that saves you from your own bad decisions. people who say the controls are bad are so terminally animation-cancel-pilled that there's no saving them. they've had their brains rotted by dark souls iframe dodge rolls and now they're cooked. they've never heard of level routing and they cry if they don't have their +7 baby bottle (estus flask) for whenever they get hit. they think they're good at video games because they can slap on giant's armor and a zweihander and poise tank manus, but any game that actually pushes back on brute force is "bad game design." they tell everyone else to "get good," but you hand them a game where you can't stack bleed to instakill bosses and they throw a fit. the concept of a 1cc is beyond them and they'll just have to be left behind during The Gloaming. they will suck on their binkies and shake their rattles until the bombs drop and the bodies pile up in the streets, and then they'll say nuclear fallout is "artificial difficulty" because you can't dodge roll out of it. so it is, so it must be. anyway if you like castlevania and stuff you'll probably like this, check it out.

-BEWARE OF SAVING SYSTEM- When you reach checkpoint game autosaves, BUT if you exit game wrong way, it does not keep said save for you to continue from. To save the game you need to die and then press exit on game over screen. If you reach checkpoint and exit game through normal menu - you will lose your save -BEWARE OF SAVING SYSTEM-

The more I play it, the less I like it. This is my least favourite Tengo Project game by far, and that's a shame, because I love action-platformers. If you played Super Ghouls & Ghosts on SNES and gave up, this game is more like that than a game like Mega Man X/Zero or one of the major ninja game franchises. I also love pixel art, and this has better and more high-effort pixel art than 99% of indie games. Tengo remade the original NES version completely. I wish I could give it a positive review because of that, and I probably shouldn't, but I will anyway. So this game is extremely memorization-heavy, which isn't my thing. It has (1) a low margin for error, (2) lots of recovery on every action you take, and (3) level design that requires you to know in advance where the enemies and items are positioned, where and when it's safe to jump, etc. The game trolls you constantly by doing things like punishing you for going for an item box by placing an enemy a bit further away that shoots the exact location of the item. That's cool that it's a hardcore game, and I'm going to try and get good enough at this game to like it, but the basic gameplay just to pick it up and play it is not fun. I've gotten very frustrated at Wild Guns and Pocky & Rocky as well, but they are a lot more fun on a basic level than this is.

Very satisfying to learn stages and progress little by little everytime after each game over. Tho I'm but a humble onigiri eater. Worth it.
