Kind of insane how well thought out this is for it’s time, or any time for that matter. It guides you on a loop around it’s map, then just lets go, has complete confidence in you the player to pick up on it’s many subtle hints and details to find the way forward. The world, atmosphere, music, are all top notch, the bosses are creative and interesting, and it tells a compelling story with next to no spoken words. All I have to complain about are like two moments where I think it’s a bit too obtuse (the secret wall on the way to Ridley’s for example), and that some of it’s platforming demands more precision than the game really feels capable of.
