Nice action & graphics. Quite shoret and somewhat rough around the edges, but still very good for the price.
Nice and challenging gameplay in retro classic style. Most of the levels are nice and designed pretty interesting, and final boss fights also feel nice! Sprites are also pretty pleasing to the eye. About disadvantages (Only one) - lack of new skills that you can open for one out of 2 characters, and those skills are not that useful. Definitely can recommend as an enjoyable 2D platformer that perfectly captures the gameplay and style of the classics
Muy bueno y divertido con una ambientación muy lograda al igual que la música acompaña genial en los niveles.
Pros + + Inspired by games like Mega Man Ninja Gaiden, and Ghost & Ghouls + Good amount of unique enemies to get in your way + Challenging for those seeking it + Music is quite good Cons - - Platforming can be a chore with the instagib attacks from enemies (speedrunning stages is tuff) - Boss Fights can be a little too simple at times - Playing as the Ayane is unforgiving because of the lack of 8 directional kunai throwing (Can only throw in one direction) - Dull sprite animations even if it is supposed to be considered "retro", however it is a mobile game as well. Overall: I'd say give it a shot if you have patience for its difficulty. I'm always up for games that are cheap and are inspired by such great titles.
Gioco di una difficoltà assurda , nonostante l'impegno lo dovuto lasciare stare , solo per i patiti di metroidvania skillati.
Brutal game, for a hard retro-like experience. It lacks some extra moves, binding options, actual tutorial... but considering the price, it's fair to post a positive review.
no se lo recomiendo a nadie, la dificultad es artificial, básicamente te morís rapidísimo porque te matan de 5 golpes y te aparecen enemigos de la nada y por todos lados, logre pasar el nivel de la intro para ver si después se ponía bueno, intente probar todos los 8 niveles para ver si al menos uno era divertido pero ni siquiera eso, compren otra cosa porque este juego no vale la pena.
Вполне неплохая экщен-аркада в духе 90-х, вполне может хватить на вечерок другой. Но в игре черезмерно много обрывов, колючек, плюс вас персонаж отлетает от любого тычка, да и многие враги поставлены возле обрывов так, что бы сразу вас в него столкнуть, пока вы не запомните их наизусть...
I just finished the game. Hopefully I'll be able to make a video review soon. I think players are hard on the difficulty; I was too, in the beginning, but the more I played and learned how the developer made the level design and I learned every enemy, the easier it became. I definately believe the difficulty is intentional and it's not a game to try and rush through levels on your first playthrough. Let me be more straightforward: This game is a love letter to Megaman X; maybe specifically Megaman X4 to 6. The level design is unhinged, but it is pretty impressive. Three power-ups to find, a lot of health extensions, and bottles to aid you on your quest. If you want to have an easy time with the game and don't want to drop it - play the game with Ayano. If you want the hardcore experience, use Shintaro. This is not specifically because of combat but the major pitfall to avoid is recoil damage from how hard you fall backwards when hit. The major difficulty spike in this game are the platforming sequences and their unpredictability. (Hence Shintaro as the hard mode - he's a melee fighter. If you use him, you must always do platforming sequences with your blade charged.) Once you learn how the platforms will generally behave, the game will flow smoothly. Surely, you'll still repeat the stage often, but all in all, it's not the miserable experience that negative reviews will get you to think - the game is not that frustratingly hard at all. I think quite the opposite, as you can cheese bosses with health potions once you obtain them, so they're the easiest part of the game. Also they didn't have to go that hard on the soundtrack; mad respect.
Do you like Yokai? Do you like 2D Platformers? Do you like bosses? Do you like great audio- and visualdesign? THEN THIS IS THE GAME FOR YOU!
