“Unfortunately, how the story is told kills the pacing and enthusiasm I had to progress; I had to force myself to keep going. The characters are just not interesting. It reminded me of how exhausting Freedom Planet's story was told and voiced—I had to just shut off the voices. It felt like I was listening to an audiobook of an amateur webcomic.”

“The story's not really anything special, and has some pretty noticeable loose ends, but it serves well enough.”

“It's alright for the most part, but some plot threads kind of just... disappear and the game abruptly ends.”

“The worst offender to me though, and I mean no ill towards the composer, but the music man, it's so painfully basic and boring, not a single good track. I don't remember which stage, but there's one stage where a riff in the song is good before it goes back to being bleh, and I'm sorry to rag on it, but it's the truth.”

“Most games have the option to adjust the volumes of different sound types (such as music, SFX, and voices) separately, and with more gradual sliders, so only having the option to adjust the music on a 5-step scale is just rather disappointing in comparison.”

“Generally, I instantly go into a game and turn the music off.”

“The graphics settings for this game are a bit lacking.”

“No graphics options, no option to rebind controls, bad voice acting, and bad writing.”

“- Lack of settings (display, graphics, sound, control, etc.)”

“The characters/character designs are all fine themselves and I can appreciate the cultural diversity represented here, the voice acting also isn't bad either, but I feel the story, especially the ending, fell a bit flat.”

“Trying to get the best rank at the end, either by taking as little damage and killing as many enemies as possible, or by speeding through as fast as you can, for both the sub areas and the full stages, would instantly make the game more replayable.”

“Some alternate playstyles would absolutely increase the game's replay value, and it sucks that it is seemingly absent from the game.”

“There's no wall hopping like you'd expect from an X inspired title, and there are plenty of glitches where I have fallen straight through the floor.”

“If you're not already a Mega Man fan or are a bit hesitant to get the game, I'd maybe suggest waiting a bit for a patch for the few glitches and for more settings, but I would recommend at least trying out the game at some point.”

“Some will be put off by the floaty controls, others by unintended glitches or weak art direction, in addition to the other issues mentioned.”

“After I came to that conclusion, I sped through the stages instead just so it'd be done, hoping the bosses would be different, which are nothing more than tedious damage sponges.”

“There are some areas on moving platforms that go on for a bit too long, and if you fall off at any point, you have to start over, which is kind of tedious.”

“I backed this game and I'm happy that I did, but it definitely lacks basic optimization settings options and needs to be polished. The platform movements sometimes are not in sync, making timing really infuriating, and there are platforms that my character phases through and falls off.”
