A metroidvania that actively tries to not follow in the footsteps of the genre, while simultaneously excelling in it.
There is no double jump. This game's movement upgrades are very different than what I expected from the genre in a very fresh and interesting way. The combat is chunky and satisfying, the platforming is a little clunky and frustrating, and the art atmosphere and music is absolutely immaculate.
Every horrifying creature and boss design is magnificently and thematically justifiably grotesque in such an artistic way.
Could not put this game down and it's definitely one of the best in the genre while not trying to be just another installment in the genre.
Absolutely recommend if you have the stomach for the justified gory tone and challenging gameplay. Peak metroidvania stuff right here.
