This game is like a mix of Dungreed and Dead Cells but it’s far from the their quality.
The controls are not easy to get used to, especially trying to coordinate the jumping and dashing, the wall runs and slides caused me to get stuck on the walls when I don’t want to. The auto attacks make me stop in midair while I’m actually trying to avoid enemy fire. Because of this, it is extremely difficult to get through the levels even when my skill tree is maxed out. Thankfully, you can set an option for invulnerability and that was the only way I could complete all five levels.
The story is not worth exploring as it does not really compliment the gameplay much.
All in all, this game is alright for killing time when you’re on a holiday for a couple of days. Doesn’t have the same reply value as Dungreed or Dead Cells due to the very limited number of weapons and skills.
