This answers an existential question: "would you still love me if I was your evil spirit twin?". The answer must be yes, because you don't have a choice. Your only choice is whether to play this or not, and I gotta say... hmmm, this givin poor man's Ori. But ofc, that is only surface level comparison. The gameplay is a whole 'nother beast 🔥 the first thing I've noticed when playing this is that the team lacked a writer, and I was right, so it shows. None of it is particularly interesting, but twice per levels, you'll see bonafide instagram reels of someone's past. Man's the textbook example of getting the short end of the stick. But then again, is that all there is to it...? It's not particularly complex, so just go along with what's presented if you wanna try out the game for the gameplay.
Gameplay which is... definitely from an Unity game, which hurts the overall balancing, which is otherwise stemming from a good initial idea. You can reset too, levels have three bonus clear conditions and one of those is speedrunning, hence the option to reset came as a natural consequence of this design. That, and your character's flow is quite peculiar, the general rhythm of the gameplay is a little alienating if I do say so myself. I thought having hazards was kind of annoying, but you can specifically remove those in the settings. It takes some outta me to not muster a sigh when I enter a level, I admit, as I know I'm probably gonna die a few times and not really be too sure as to why things went down that way.
The souls residing in this world do got that unspoken of cape drip. That's all they have, really. The tutorial guy be looking like a grim reaper with a cane, atleast. Anyways, he taught me his ways, how to use the grappling hook as a teleportation device (no way!!) so I guess now I am Lara Ghoft, a true white wight. I wondered if hitboxes were a problem, but I think it's moreso aiming. Adjusting sensibility would work. Maybe a controller is the definitive way to play this.
Whatever the case, instructions unclear: lemme get a mouthful of the wide variety of gimmicks each world has and die of mid fiction. You need to remember if your teleportation will move the target, get rid of it, just TP you at no extra costs, it be a doozy. Also, the next crow that flies towards me will be stuffed in marshmallows until it dies of sweetness. This is my only warning. Look at these backgrounds bro, Lethal Company ahh creatures looking at you fail miserably and turning a blind eye to your success. I've won... but at what cost?
