Great Castle Vania game, terrible Mario game
The platforming is so painful and then you even fully die when you fall down a pit, 99% of my deaths so far are from falling which is honestly really bad, I really like the combat so far but it feels really bad having to come back the entire way because I fell into some pit, it's honestly just annoying and doesn't add anything to the experience, just take 10% of my HP, don't make me walk back :(

A few months ago I came back to this game for the third time. Sadly nothing changed. If you wanna make a platforming game, it has to play really well and the majority of gameplay IS platforming. I am a massive fan of metroidvanias, I played a ton of them but this one just lacks the smooth movement I'm used to and I cant get myself to enjoy it :steamsad:

No worries! Thanks for taking the time to respond. Maybe you’ll like the sequel better, it has much smoother controls and is much more of a metroidvania than the souls-like nature if the first game.

I did go back to it for an hour but I need more time to give it a real shot. But yes, I would change it for sure !
