Honestly, this has all the roots of a good game but a few things make this kind of annoying and gutting. It has a fun pixel art style and a simple but fun sense of progression, it's a quick game and while I'm not convinced the power scaling is right the enemies are fun to go against.

The issue comes in the form of bugs, we couldn't even get into versus mode, admittedly we didn't try very hard but it just black-screened and left us stuck. This also occasionally happened when we moved to the next level. Another issue I have is that the game doesn't incentivise changing characters, it gives you the option to throughout but if you do you will just get instantly fucked by it, I wish it did more to motivate this during the game.

It's worth a play, but not without its issues. I think me and my boyfriend are going to maybe 100% it, we will see if we get that far. It's been nice to play on a busy week.
