More of a 2D sidescroller than a metroidvania tbh
I did like the combat at first but the time-slow shtick got really tedious near the end, especially during the platforming segments when you have to wait like 15 seconds for your time slow meter to fill up, calling it a slight annoyance would be a huge understatement. Also your regular attack being tied to a gauge that can deplete with no way to defend yourself other than relying on special attacks is a pretty idiotic design choice on the devs part since it encourages braindead playstyle where you just spam time slow and special attacks. The bosses were serviceable at least, some of the mechanics I complained about worked fine in boss fights.
I really feel like this game could've been way better off being a pure boss rush instead of posing to be a sidescroller or a metroidvania or whatever
Anyway, game is below subpar, wouldn't recommend
