Great Metroidvania With Parry-based Combat and Lots of Platforming | Somber Echoes demo
4Hello everyone! Here we are with another demo I played during the Steam Next Fest. This is Somber Echoes, a metroidvania with parry-based combat. You could say it is a soulslike because of the difficulty in combat, but there is no stamina and no dashes, only parry and attack, plus a special skill that helps you in platforming (also works like a charm in combat but doing special jumping tricks). There is also A LOT of platforming in this game, so be careful. Although controls are responsive, movement and combat is smooth and overall everything works perfectly... It's just that, in my opinion, there weren't enough enemies/bosses, considering the length of the demo (I played for almost 2 hours and a half, then cut some exploration sections to upload a shorter video).
Graphics are impressive, but remember that I was using a NVIDIA 2060, and it was pushing almost to the max.
Gotta mention that playing this reminded me a lot to GRIME, so it might be the perfect game while waiting for GRIME II.
