Worldless is a wonderful and charming little game, and it's something I cannot help but recommend enough. I was recommended this game through a funny Youtuber I enjoy promoting it, and he only shared the first crack of the game to give me a taste of what to enjoy, leaving the rest of the game a surprise, so I'm going to do the same and try to hide as many story specific details as I can while promoting it for those who are curious! 1) The Combat Combat is turn based mixed with reaction based elements. During your turn, you use combos to attack the enemy you face, the game encouraging different uses of specific combos to get more of the preferred type of damage you want. It's similar on the defending phase, but kept much simpler for the player to keep up with enemy attacks and combos to keep your health as high as possible. With the inclusion of a skill tree, you can customize your play style as much as you want and find what works for you! And since death is not something that can happen during combat this game, there are no runbacks that make this game obnoxious in needing to platform to return to a hard combat encounter. This also makes it easier to step away if one fight gets particularly frustrating, as you can set the game down and restart right where you left it! 2) Platforming Platforming and exploring the world is where Worldless really shines. Though I do critique the lack of a detailed map, the community can have you covered there if you need to look for one. In regards to the movement of the game, it's smooth and wonderfully done. The platforming challenges when you acquire new abilities also organically teach you how to use these abilities to their fullest, making jumping around this colorful world such a treat 3) The Art Style Speaking of the world, it's wonderfully done in Worldless. Tweening animation combined with more traditional 2D animation, it's incredible to watch the characters become more solidified when a particular combo hits just as hard as you wanted, both friend and foe. The environments are no stranger to this wonderful art style, kept simple and unique in a way that makes it easy for players to keep track of every area while leaving minimal chance of players confusing them for each other. The world is left for you to get lost in the way the developers intended, not because area A looks near identical to area B This doesn't even all touch on the beautiful music and incredible story buried under the surface for you to find and engage with, but I would be doing any interested parties a disservice if I were to spoil it all here. All I can say is that, while this game is small, it is so easy to get lost and have a fun time. Enjoy yourself, take it slow, and give every corner of this beautiful game the love it deserves. No need to rush. Just slow down and enjoy the beautiful world that was painted for us here

Oh my goodness what an incredible game. I went into worldless thinking it would be just a very stylised metroidvania, but to my surprise it did not play at all like I expected it to. The combat is a spin on dynamic turn based where you get to attack and combo on your turn, and defend and parry during the enemy's, for bosses and more difficult fights the game more or less forces you to learn parry timings and requires you to have pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fast reaction time. The depth in the combat and skill ceiling is honestly alot higher than I expected, you can really spend a good bit of time to learn to optimally do combos dmc-esque style (of course not to the extent of dmc) for max posture damage and stuff and it is extremely fun to get comfortable enough to do so. The game is short and sweet about 10-12 hours for a casual playthrough, and has one of the most stunning, eye-catching and elegant visual style I've ever seen in a video game. I genuinely cannot glaze the artstyle enough, the animations are silky smooth and are truly a visual treat. The final boss and the 100% requirements are quite ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ difficult, it took me upwards of 30 or so attempts to beat sunnum for the first time because of how the game forces you to play the fight near perfectly, and the achievement to beat sunnum before it uses world flare is insane because a fight that I already needed to perfect, I have to super perfect it now without missing a single beat 😭😭😭. It's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up bro, but I still had ALOT of fun even so. Worldless is one of those indie games you play to completion and think how the ♥♥♥♥ does nobody know of this or play this.

Worldless is so far the most unique metroidvania I’ve played (and it was my 17th one), and I am glad I played it, but at the same time I can see it not working for some people. It worked for me, but there were aspects that I didn’t enjoy as much as I would’ve hoped. On to the full review. 1. Presentation The game is very visually distinct, and you will not mistake it for any other MV in a million years. Avoiding both the traditional pixel artstyle, and the more modern thick outline handdrawn style, Worldless’s visual identity is build around simple geometric shapes and structures, particle effects, and heavy color-coding. Each region has its own dominant color and distinct feel, so it’s easy to differentiate between them. However, the areas inside each region can feel samey, with little to distinguish between them, and that combined with a lack of a traditional map can make traversal confusing. The design of characters and enemies fares better. They are presented as an abstract collection of geometric shapes, which at first makes you wonder what the hell are you even looking at. But once you start meeting more advanced entities, you’ll notice how their true shape appears briefly during movement or attack. The player character works the same way. If you liked the angel designs in Evangelion, you should feel right at home. 2. Exploration Exploration in Worldless is on the weaker side I’m afraid. First, the map, or rather lack of thereof. Your main navigation tool is a ‘mental’ map of the regions (called ‘branches’) the game takes place in, all connected to the central hub. These branches are represented by a collection of nodes connected by lines, very reminiscent of star constellations. Each node is an entity you will interact with during your journey, while also serving as a point of orientation. The map will also show you some goodies to collect if certain criteria are met. What the map will not show you, however, is any topography, distance, or any traversal challenge. The road between two nodes is always shown as a straight line. Oftentimes you will look at the map and see that you need to go west to reach the next node. In reality, you will have to go a bit west, then north, then slightly east, then finally west again. I understand that it’s supposed to be a simplified approximation, but it made the navigation more annoying, and ultimately made me rely on a fan-made map that shows all the nooks and crannies of the world. I will however compliment the movement itself. It’s very smooth, you get a fast run ability pretty early in the game, making backtracking easier, and there’s some hidden movement interactions à la Super Metroid. At a certain point you will aquire a second set of movement options, and traversing certain areas will require smooth switching between the two sets. However, none of these movement abilities play any role during combat. 3. Combat If you heard of Worldless before, chances are you heard about its combat system. It’s turn-based with a time limit for turns. You have a set amount of time (which you can increase with upgrades) to perform your attacks, once your time runs out your opponent will perform a set of attacks you have to block/evade. Rinse and repeat. Seems simple enough at first, but as you gain more upgrades, unlock more combos, and meet enemies that require certain conditions to be met before you can even damage them, the game becomes more of a puzzle fighter. It’s compounded by the fact that there are two ways you can deal with most enemies – you can A) just defeat them (with an option for a re-fight), which lets you pass through and reach the next point on the map, but grants you nothing, or B) absorb them, which actually kills them permamently, grants you an upgrade point, marks the node on your map as ‘cleared’, and -in the case of stronger enemies- an achievement. So naturally, you want to absorb as many enemies as you can, and the twist here is that some enemies can only be absorbed and will not let you pass until you do so, while others are so easy to kill before absorbtion, that you will have to figure out the correct choice of attacks to absorb them before they die. I found it really fun, even if certain enemies gave me a headache trying to figure out the correct way to deal with them. The flip side of this combat system, is that all enemies are preplaced, static, always in the same spot. All of them can be described as either a puzzle fight, a mini-boss, or just a boss. There is no trash mobs that just scuttle around, which means the world can feel strangely empty and unoccupied (which kinda makes sense for the setting). Combined with the lack of any serious platforming challenges (except one that is really hard but optional), this can make traversal rather uneventful. Personally, I didn’t mind it as much (the lack of platforming I mean), but if you’re the kind of MV player who likes to feel challenged all the time, even during basic traversal, this game might not provide that level of dopamine. Do I recommend this game? Yes, absolutely, even just to try something unique within the genre. At the same time, Worldless is not a crowd pleaser. It can seem too weird and unusual for a casual metroidvania fan. It’s not a hard game (bar certain optional, hidden stuff), it’s also not a long game. But if you are looking for a metroidvania experience different from the current trend of ball-crushing difficulty à la Silksong or Nine Sols, I think you should give this one a shot.

One of the best metroidvanias I played in a while. very fun traversal and movement mechanics with one the most satisfying combat loops. It has very similar combat to Indivisible but with way more emphasis on timing. Combat is unique since you fight enemies 1 on 1 in an attack and defense phase. During the attack phase you string combos similar to a fighting game and during the defense phase you need to parry, dodge, and counter the enemy attacks.The game is deeper than my simple explication and it’s something you need to experience to understand. Every enemy encounter is its own combat puzzle that require equal amounts theory crafting and mechanical mastery. The game is difficult but it mitigates any frustrations by doing two things: 1- Every enemy placement is static and intentional. 2- There is no dying or returning to annoying checkpoints. The moment you lose an encounter you just get pushed back outside the enemy “zone” after-which you can immediately engage the enemy again. You get to try new angles to solve the combat puzzle without any interruptions or wait-time. And if you feel like you are not equipped for it you can just ignore and come back to it later since the enemy placements are static. It has lot of depth for people who enjoy crafting combos, I only scratched the surface of what you can do. If you want to see how deep the game can get, go on YouTube and search “Worldless: Ultimate Trial Speedrun” The game has a fantastic art style with beautiful varied environments. My only issue with it is that the map is sometimes annoying to read but that’s a nitpick on an otherwise flawless execution. The game does not overstay it’s welcome. It took me about 12 hours to get all the upgrades/collectibles and fight the secret final boss.
