CASTILLO: Shattered Mirrors

I really like the graphical style. Very fun and fast paced. Would recommend.

Found myself enjoying it more than I expected. Really liked the final fight.

okay, so this one really likes shooter games. really went into this hoping to like it, because a boomer shooter and collectathon sound like they'd go together really well! unfortunately, this game gets it... really, really wrong. the graphics are EXTREMELY oversaturated, and it's a bit hard to look at. that wouldn't be an issue if the gunplay felt good. unfortunately, it really... really doesn't. things feel weak and flimsy. and the audio mixing... the audio mixing is really, REALLY bad. the main character is way too loud and has this filter over his voice that makes it hard to listen to, some guns feel really quiet, while others play their firing sound REALLY loudly... and you don't even need to use the guns half the time because the whip is so overtuned that the only thing keeping it in check is the one second cooldown. some of the enemies are really annoying to fight-- the organ spiders are just... they're only vulnerable for a moment while they're attacking and take off 4 hearts from your healthbar! at the point you first encounter them, that is OVER HALF. and the bugs are just... this game is unpolished. many textures look like they have z-fighting, geometry doesn't line up at all half the time, various things are left floating, it's hard to tell what's a pick up-- picking things up has this weird finagly hitbox, the game wants you to platform but doesn't let you jump half the time when on some of those platforms, sometimes when getting out the whip, it'd just be stuck and i couldn't attack anymore-- and for the love of god, whatever you do, do not press C. at best, you'll be placed randomly nearby. at worst, you'll fall out of the map. Jackson Clayton, mr. dev guy... if you're reading this, i hope you come back around and do a patch on this game, it really needs it ;;
