Fun, little micro metroidvania. Good art style. Fun powers. Combat is a little stiff but otherwise pretty good.

Nov. 2024

Cute little metroidvania game. Only one thing that was totally not nice: You can mute the sfx, but there are still sfx that are not muted. Remarkable, that the game is from 2014 and it has not been fixed in 10 years. Yeah but the rest of the game is really nice. In the beginning it seemed a little bit difficult, but that was just the first impression. It became very relaxing very soon.

After beating this game here's my review. When I first played the game I had a problem trying to get the game on full screen making the screen not align properly. I played it without full screen and played it like that. In this game, you play a game that's similar to other Metriodvania games. In this game, you go around 4 planets getting upgrades to make it to the end of the game. When you play the game at first you'll have a hard time since you can easily get lost in it not knowing where to go. The game is pretty difficult when you go further. There are power-ups you can get but require different upgrades to get them. There's one for the upgrade of health and guns. There are other guns you can use to fit your play style. The upgrade that does the most damage is the most effective. If you die you have to go back to the last checkpoint or the last place you saved at. This game is pretty short and can be beaten pretty quickly but I don't recommend newcomers to retro games like this to play because of how hard it is. Get it when it's on sale since you can beat it pretty quickly and with a bundle since it's pretty cheap. I give this game an 8 out of 10. Have a good day.

Sept. 2024

Short, but generally a fun experience. Pros: [*] The gun upgrade system is interesting. [*] The character upgrades are varied and fun. [*] The bosses are challenging, but not too challenging, and I liked the way you fight the same boss with more moves each time. [*] Zero complaints about the graphics, music and sound effects. Cons: [*] Not being able to control the jump height took a little getting used to. [*] No fast travel, backtracking got a bit tedious at times. [*] Having to go into the menu to switch gun presets was a little clunky. Info: [*] The game ran too fast without turning on "throttle" in the settings. [*] Setting up my controller took a little figuring out.

July 2024

I am bias since I played it when I was a young teen, so its a bit nostalgic for me. It's a really fun platformer game, and quite a challenge on the first go. The music is also really enjoyable and even know it's quite a short game there is tons of hidden things to collect
