gameplay3 negative mentions
  • The game provides a convenient Soulslike experience without some of the traditional inconveniences like having to go to a fire keeper to level up.
  • The art, enemy design, world, and graphics show clear passion and effort, creating a pleasant PS2-style atmosphere.
  • The combat system has potential with features like crit indicators, a prosthetic arm, and a special Soul Slash attack that adds depth.
  • The game is plagued by clunky, unresponsive controls, poor camera lock-on mechanics, and buggy hitboxes that hinder combat enjoyment.
  • Lack of controller support, inability to adjust keybindings, and poor options/settings limit accessibility and player customization.
  • The game feels janky and underdeveloped with dumb enemy AI, limited content, confusing design choices, and significant bugs causing players to get stuck or lose progress.

  • gameplay

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    33% positive mentions, 17% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The gameplay features impressive art, smooth and satisfying combat mechanics with powerful swordplay and swift counters, showcasing promise despite being a first-time developer's work. While it offers unique challenges and mechanics distinct from similar games, some polishing is needed, especially for control responsiveness and terminology. Overall, the combat is serviceable but not fully utilized by players in practice.

    • “The art, enemies, and the world are very impressive, and the game mechanics are fun to play!”
    • “The effects for receiving hits are great and smooth, the slash of the sword feels powerful, and the counter is swift and feels cool. The game has its own challenge and mechanics, so it isn't just a rip off Souls game.”
    • “If you watch any videos or gifs of the game, you'll notice a pattern: players aren't actually using the combat mechanics like dashing or blocking to win.”
    • “If you notice any lag in controls, it seems to have been made for keyboard and mouse gameplay.”
    • “It has potential if the mechanics are polished.”

  • graphics

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    80% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 20% negative mentions

    The graphics are pleasantly reminiscent of PS2-era visuals, with smooth effects and impactful combat animations that suit the game's indie origins. Despite some minor imperfections, the environments and lighting create a fitting atmosphere, making the visuals impressive for a first professional 3D game by a novice developer.

    • “Overall graphics are pleasant and PS2-ish, in a purposeful way.”
    • “The effects are great and smooth, the sword slash feels powerful, the counter is swift and cool, and the graphics are impressive for the developer's first professional 3D game.”
    • “The graphics are fairly nice—the environments and lighting set a decent mood, with few complaints on the visual front.”

  • stability

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Stability issues are notable, with frequent bugs such as inconsistent hitboxes causing attacks to miss despite close proximity and enemies exhibiting teleporting, erratic movements, and glitchy corpse behavior. These problems disrupt gameplay fluidity and immersion.

    • “The weapon seems to be buggy or simply have a hitbox smaller than the model. Several times I swung barely an in-game foot away, it missed. Only when I'm hugging enemies do the hits connect.”
    • “Buggy enemies with teleporting, erratic movement, and corpses glitching out.”

  • atmosphere

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The atmosphere is generally considered decent, especially for a free game, capturing a dark and moody tone similar to Souls-like titles. However, some users feel it currently feels unfinished and could benefit from further development.

  • optimization

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The game's optimization is limited, as users find that system settings cannot be fully adjusted to enhance performance, and available performance options appear ineffective.

    • “Can't fully adjust system settings to improve performance and the options to adjust performance don't really seem to work all that well.”

  • story

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The story is minimal and lacks context, leaving players confused about their purpose or setting from the very beginning.

    • “Instead, I'm immediately plopped into a dark area with no story, no context as to why I'm there.”

  • character development

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 100% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The character development is considered very basic, with simple designs that primarily appeal to dedicated fans.

  • music

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The music is criticized for being dull and repetitive, lacking variety and failing to enhance the gaming experience.

    • “The background music and ambient sounds are incredibly dull and repetitive.”
