Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree (on Steam) Demo First Look 1 of ???
00:18 settings ~~~~ 4:47 character creation ~~~~ 7:39 start new game
A souls like metroidvania platformer. It has potential to be one of the best in the genre, or perhaps take the crown. But, in my opinion some issues would need to be addressed first. The game releases at the end of this month, so hopefully they can fix up most of the issues I will list below:
1) ladders; if you detach from a ladder you cannot grab hold of it again, thereby falling to your death.
2) dropping to lower handholds on walls; the character will not grab the lower handhold automatically when you drop down from a handhold above. Potentially falling to your death.
3) slippery edges of platforms; standing on the very edge of a platform will cause your character to fall off. Perhaps leading to a fall to your death.
4) jumping from edges of platforms; because of above issue it also makes it very hard to take a running jump from the very edge of a platform. Which could lead to a fall to your death.
5) fast travel system; it's a bit broken at the moment. It only works if you select the outer ring of a location and won't work if you select directly on the location.
