I really enjoyed this game, it's very simple. The gameplay's fun and the sprite art is really pretty. The combat can really be boiled down to just spamming half the time though, even with the combos you get. The fact that they cost a chunk on a meter makes it so you probably won't use them even more. I don't even mind this though, I still had a good time cause the game makes it satisfying to play. What was more frustrating to me was dodging enemy attacks. When Flynn performs a dodge roll, he glows white when he can do it again, and the enemies also glow white when they're about to attack. With basically half of the weapons being close combat, it's very easy for it to just be a flashing mess and have it be hard to see when they'll attack. You'll have to just understand how fast the enemies attack beforehand if you wanna be able to dodge correctly. This is a pretty big part of the gameplay so having this be an issue is kinda :/

I don't know if this was an issue for others but I didn't mind the Scourges that occur throughout the game. They provided harder challenges to old levels and never felt like a drag or interruption to me.

Besides those, I really liked the spectacle the game has for a gameplay style so simple, I would always finish a level just thinking how cool it was. The music especially is so atmospheric and adds alot to this experience. I'm glad I backed this!!! Comfy game
