What can I say about this game ... it is a pixel game, that tries to keep you engaged into its gameplay ... it tries ,but fails ... with lacking story progression that is hidden way too deep ... with a world that has nice maps ... but what are nice maps, when the controls are CHISELLED IN STONE ... so you waste from, 5 to 10 min just to figure the controls out ... fuck not even a tutorial or hints ... hey press this to ATTACK... or this to JUMP ... or this to have a MAP or a MENU
Nope nothing... not even a hint what to press ... hey D is for attack , Space is for Jump , Enter is for Inventory ... uhm yeah balanced gameplay my ass ... not to mention his jumping has a 1 sec or 0,5 sec delay ... making you miss each jump ... balanced gameplay... Bullshit ... and i miss jumping down from a platform
Its one of those games that have nice art , nice story [its somewhere] ... but fall short with its control issues , story presentation ... and awful check point system
