  • The game features enjoyable pixel art, diverse biomes, and a satisfying talent system that encourages exploration.
  • Combat is snappy and responsive, with a variety of weapons and interesting boss mechanics that provide a fun challenge.
  • The developer is actively engaged with the community, quickly addressing bugs and feedback, which enhances the overall experience.
  • The combat mechanics can feel frustrating due to minimal knockback and limited enemy attack animations, making encounters less engaging.

  • gameplay
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is described as a mixed experience, with some players appreciating the fluidity and fun of mastering certain mechanics, while others criticize the unclear death system and overall execution. Although there are unique mechanics that stand out, the game ultimately feels like an amateur attempt in the metroidvania genre, lacking the polish and depth needed for a truly engaging experience.

    • “I want to get good at mechanics that feel fluid and fun the better I get at them; I don't see the fun in mastering mechanics that don't feel good.”
    • “There were several interesting mechanics I hadn't seen before in the many games I've played in this genre.”
    • “All in all, this is a decent amateur venture into the world of metroidvanias, with sweet writing and good music, but ultimately falls short due to gameplay.”
    • “The death system isn't clear or is not enough of a mechanic at all.”
    • “I felt if the developer had an actual team to help further expand the ideas and mechanics behind this game, something truly special would have happened.”
  • music
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is consistently praised as a standout feature, with many reviewers highlighting it as a major highlight that enhances the overall experience. While the gameplay may not fully meet expectations, the quality of the music is noted as a strong point that elevates the game.

    • “Music is an absolute highlight.”
    • “Short n' sweet game with great music!”
    • “Finally, for me, I believe the music was the strongest point.”
  • story
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story features numerous optional side quests and rewards that encourage exploration, but some players find the quests and endings to be overly complex and unsatisfying, particularly those who are fans of the original "Symphony of the Night."

    • “There's also lots of little optional side quests and plenty of cool rewards for exploration.”
    • “The quests and endings are far too obtuse for me to really get any satisfaction out of them.”
    • “The story feels disjointed and lacks a coherent narrative, making it hard to stay engaged.”
    • “Character development is minimal, leaving me feeling disconnected from the protagonists and their journeys.”
  • graphics
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are praised for their enjoyable old-school art style, which enhances the fun of exploring the map.

    • “Exploring the map is fun, and I enjoy the old-school art style.”
    • “The graphics are stunning, with vibrant colors and intricate details that bring the world to life.”
    • “The art direction is fantastic, blending modern techniques with a nostalgic feel that captivates players.”
  • atmosphere
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's atmosphere is praised for being immersive and effective, successfully creating a mood that enhances the overall experience, despite its simplistic retro style.

    • “Quite atmospheric despite the very basic retro style.”
    • “It definitely got me in the mood and set the atmosphere.”
  • grinding
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players express frustration with the grinding aspect, noting that the time investment required to earn currency is disproportionate to the rewards, as exemplified by a vendor selling limited potions for a high cost relative to the effort needed to obtain them.

    • “I also see one vendor selling potions for what amounts to roughly 10 minutes of mob grinding's worth of currency for 1 potion, and she only has a total of 5.”
