First the Golem, now the Totem...
DLC finished, and it's excellent.
More adventures were expected, and they've come, that's it, in the form of a not-too-serious side quest, with a pretty simple lore, which in my vision is just an excuse for the additional gameplay, but it works. The fact that this is free is even better.
Everything is here, the great mechanics introduced in the main game, the humor, the graphics, the music (the guy did It again man, Beach and Totem Boss OST are FIRE), and the difficulty, which is a bit more increased here, and I found it very nice, since the main game had low to medium difficulty overall.
You can see they had fun with this one, trying new things everytime, bringing dynamism to the gameplay since the beginning with the Squid stage and boss, to the end, with a freaking Punch-Out-styled final boss, that was unexpected! (and well made)
In the middle of it, you have the Totem Boss which I really liked, besides seeing some people having trouble with it, it was fine for me, defeating him on the second attempt, that was a great battle, far different from the usual, which works very well with the DLC theme and has a FIRE background music (or should I say STORM?).
And there is also the run against your evil self Dark Messenger, a fast-paced platforming race right before the final battle. That was another great and personal experience, because something funny happened: I started winning every room, then I started to lose one by one in sequence, getting tied with the opponent, and then winning the match point by SECONDS of difference, truly a CINEMA moment. ( I even registered the moment with a print screen)
Thanks Sabotage Studios, your efforts were worth it, what a great piece of art.
