This game is really great, I played it for the first time a few years back and I can confidently say it's still worth playing, even at present. [And you can get it translated for free, which is a plus.]

The game has a decent enough story, and the gameplay itself is very fun. The platforming almost feels a bit...floaty? But in a satisfying, unique way. I haven't really played any other games like it that control quite in the same way. Despite the perceived floatiness, it still feels very nice to control.

All of the weapons you can get throughout the game are pretty wonderful, and I like that some are locked behind certain conditions, meaning you won't experience them all in a single play through.

The level design is quite good overall, though I do think the back and forth in grasstown specifically is a bit obnoxious.

There's also plenty of very interesting bosses, that encourage you to figure out their weaknesses. Which I very much enjoy! They can be a bit hard, but the game rewards you for figuring out the proper way to approach them.

Additionally, the OST is incredible. I don't think there is a single song I dislike in the entirety of it. Each song is memorable, and fit thematically to where they play very well.

Great game, you should play it if you've the time
