Reviews
For an indie title, it’s polished beyond expectations. The hand-painted ink aesthetics make every frame feel like a living scroll—whether you’re darting through moonlit rooftops or dueling in a bamboo forest, the animation flows with poetic grace. Boss fights are especially creative, each requiring you to adapt their own martial arts style against them.
首先,这游戏优化差,是那种基本就没做优化的那种。steam deck游玩时只有十几帧,这种体量的游戏,你敢信。 25年中旬发售的游戏,截止到我发评论已经是2026年,游戏只更新了一次。游戏已经停止支持了? 游戏UI很简洁,简洁到没有任何的游戏设置选项(除了游戏开始的语言选择)。 可惜了这么好的美术了。
真的挺便宜的 玩起來也還行
This side-scrolling action game delivers an enjoyable experience with its satisfying combat mechanics and visually striking environments. While the boss encounters present a solid challenge, the difficulty curve feels fair and rewarding for players willing to master its combat system.
This is quite an engaging side-scrolling action game. The combat feedback feels satisfying, the environmental art is visually appealing, and the boss strategies offer a real challenge.
