“Awesome metroidvania! This particular game focuses more on the platforming aspect instead of combat like fighting enemies for xp, leveling up etc. Theres enemies here that you kill but they're not the main focus here- it's the platforming…”Recommended · Steam review · Dec 2025 · 6 h played · Report / request removal
