Gurei

Think a Megaman boss Rush with 9 Sols bosses. One of the most ingenious takes on difficulty scaling I've ever seen. A catgirl. A dog. I love this game.

Amazing

The art style is GureiT ! The game design is GureiT ! This game is absolutely GureiT !

I was initially really excited for this game. I am working on a 2d platformer boss rush myself, and the only other one that I knew of when I started was Cuphead. My game has melee combat, so when this game was announced, I immediately wishlisted it, thinking I could draw some inspiration from it. But of course, it did not meet expectations. The combat is incredibly basic, and in some ways unintuitive. The forward attack is a three-hit sword combo (but all the sword swings take the same amount of time, so it might as well just be one hit), and there are up and down attacks as well. The weird thing is, none of these attacks push back the player, INCLUDING THE DOWN ATTACK; there is NO POGOING, which is such an airball design-wise. To make things more unintuitive, if you fall on top of a boss, the character jumps off their head with no damage, but this is never explained; I accidentally discovered it on the training dummy and then had to try it on a boss to discover that it's a feature. The movement is mid, and the dash is downright clunky and takes quite a bit of getting used to. It has this weird startup time before the dash actually happens (and not enough i-frames in my opinion) To be clear, I'm not just complaining because the game is hard; in fact, I love hard games, and I've beaten the first three Hollow Knight pantheons, I've beaten Lost Lace in Silksong (without using red tools either, cuz I'm one of those people), and I beat the Tree Sentinel in Elden Ring with level 1 gear. I just find the combat to be boring to use. The only saving grace started after I began unlocking some of the boss abilities. I started enjoying it then because I knew the combat system would increase and hopefully make the game more fun as I went along. But the nail in the coffin for me was the game pacing. The most interesting thing about the game is how the bosses scale in difficulty depending on the order you beat them in. The later you do the boss, the harder it is. When i first saw this concept in the trailer, I thought it was genius, and it did work great when I knew the first 4 bosses well enough to consistently beat all of them. But it quickly fell apart for me once I got to being able to beat 6 bosses, and then dying on the 7th. If you lose your last life in this game, your run ends and you have to start from the beginning. So at that point, I could consistently beat the first 6 bosses, and that took roughly 20 mins or so. So every time I wanted to attempt the 7th boss at the difficulty level it would be, it took 20 mins of doing the same thing I'd done many times over. That, on top of the fact that I knew I had 3 more bosses to go once I beat that one, and that the "runback time," so to speak for the harder bosses would only get longer, AND with the mediocre combat, caused me to just return the game. I didn't even get any inspiration for my game, because I didn't like the combat or movement systems, so I don't want to replicate those. Hollow Knight and Silksong have been my main inspiration for combat and movement because they are very crisp and responsive. If you only get one thing from this review, save yourself a dollar and go buy Hollow Knight instead. And if you've played Hollow Knight and are expecting combat like that, you will be disappointed
