Con una estética en 8 bits, un diseño muy bueno de niveles, y una jugabilidad sencilla pero eficaz, Odallus logra complacer a quién les habla.
Recomendado a los que le gusten los clásicos plataformeros.

Odallus é um jogo brasileiro de plataforma 2D, seguindo o melhor estilo de Castlevania/Demon's Crest.

Com diversas referências aos antigos jogos de SNES, ao mangá Berserk e a um dos meus filmes favoritos, Highlander, o jogo apresenta um pixel art impressionante, uma trilha sonora envolvente, excelente design de fases, uma história cativante e a dificuldade característica dos antigos jogos da era 16 bits, que tanto amamos (e às vezes odiamos).

É uma escolha essencial para aqueles que buscam um desafio instigante e são amantes de jogos de plataforma, assim como eu.

Jogo indie brasileiro bem legal, sempre temos que dar aquela moral pra nossa industria

Good game that throws back to the classic era of tough of nails action sidescrollers. There's a little of everything here: Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse, Metroid, Ghosts 'n Goblins, Demon's Crest, and I'd even argue Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge in terms of the final boss. (reminiscent of the second to last boss of Belmont's Revenge but with an extra twist)

While I wouldn't say this is as good as say Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon 2 in terms of a modern spin on a classic formula this is still a solid game that cuts a quick pace and has some truly beautiful looking cutscenes.

My biggest gripe with the game, however, is the jumping. It is rather finicky and with your sprite being as big as it is makes the platforming needlessly frustrating at times. This is also one of those games where you need to collect EVERYTHING which can be a dealbreaker for some.

Overall, though, I recommend this game. It doesn't overstay its welcome and gets the job done by being a solid throwback to a classic era.

It's rough around the edges. This was not the retro style game I was looking for.
