I'll start with the positives which are: the 80's theme and the easter eggs of the 80's movie and games you can find throughout.

Extreme difficulty, especially in platforming sections won't really let you enjoy the game and catch a message it wants to bring to you. By the time I beated the final boss I was so frustrated and angry, I wanted to destroy this game in my review. However, I think it deserve a 3-star rating.

Crossing Souls may be a great game with an awesome aesthetic and an excellent tribute to the time period, but goddamn the dialogue can be cringy as shit sometimes. This sounds like it was written by 12 years olds trying to be Spielberg, and not even GOOD Spielberg.

A Spielberg-esque platforming, adventure, bullet hell game, with some rather clunky dialogue but overall the style, presentation and gameplay are good enough so far to see beyond its minimal flaws. Enjoying it thusly.
