I really couldn't get into this game. Maybe I'll circle back round, but it's so unclear what you need to do you just die over and over.
I'm all for not hand-holding, but this is too much of a barrier to getting into this game. Sadly, I can imagine Rain World probably loses a lot of potential players this way.
The people that stick it out seem to love it, but I just can't apply so much time to the game in the hopes I enjoy it later.

A study in addiction.

What a lovely surprise Lone Fungus was. I picked it up in a Metroidvania Humble Bundle and after beating the final boss, can say I had a lot of fun with it.
The Good:
- Fitting music that I didn't feel the want to turn off
- Fluid movement
- Plenty of content
- Cute asthetic
- Challenging, but not impossible
The Bad:
- There's so much movement tech in this game, that isn't necessarily taught very well. You'll struggle to do (and probably give up on) some of the astral challenges because of this.
- Whereas the main game itself is achievably beatable, 100% completion feels like a chore.
- The item that points out secret areas is very, very easy to
miss when it's indicating.
- Quite easy to miss where you're meant to go next and you end up stumped.
The Ugly:
- I had to give up on my pursuit for 100%. This is very rare for me :(
