Review deepdoop 3/5 · Mar 30, 2015

8/10

Even though it does a few neat things, it doesn't progress the Metroidvania genre in any meaningful way but it does what it does well. The story is pretty interesting, there's a lot of content for how much it costs, the music is decent, and the boss battles are pretty inconsistent with some weird difficulty spikes.
