The enemies are designed well in my opinion. In a game where playing perfectly is the actual goal, having enemies with readable and 'parry-able' attacks to fit perfectly with the fast paced gameplay.
I also love the art direction for this game. The worlds look beautiful, the models for enemies are something I haven't really seen before, and in a world where all indie copy the same style, it's nice to see a 2D indie not imitating the retro Nintendo style. The music for this game is also wonderful, and each soundtrack really fits the feel of each stage.
Dead Cells is hard, but it's rewarding. Watching the game unlock more options, weapons, cosmetics, and areas for me to explore feels great. A perfect gameplay loop for a roguelite
Kill. Die. Learn. Repeat.
But for a rougelite you would expect the game to have more post game content. But after unlocking almost everything, and getting the true ending, I felt I didn't really have a reason to come to this one.
But, they "recently" released a new update for the game, which added a difficulty meter in the style of Dead Cells. I think I'll come back to this eventually, but this should have been part of the base game.
