BRASIL!!! então. i really wanted to have enjoyed this game more but unfortunately it wasn't for me. the controls seem innovative and interesting at first but when the game starts to demand more precise and quick movement it becomes sooo frustrating, and as a metroidvania i think it lacked a lot in exploration and more engaging power ups. the map system is obviously very bad in terms of, you know, locating things and knowing where you are, so it creates frustration on the player once again.

talking about pros; the pixel art in this game is really beautiful, one of the best i've seen, and it really shows its glory during boss fights. about the boss fights: they are a spectacle visually but dont offer that much in terms of gameplay, and the final final boss, tormenta, was an enormous pain in the ass. eldar was pretty fun tho even if too easy.

being brazilian myself i admire the efforts and inspiration the devs took in brazilian folclore and history, but i can't recommend this as more than a decent attempt at metroidvania. when you have already experienced the GOAT modern adaptation of this genre in hollow knight, it's really difficult to enjoy other games that dont do it as well as HK, i guess.

also: eldar is pretty hot right???
