I picked this game up on a whim based on the visual style. I've put dozens of hours into Dead Cells, one of the most pleasantly tactile side-scrollers I've played in recent history, so discovering that Undying Moon was a pretty blatant clone that doesn't play (or run, on Switch) nearly as well was like getting hit with a stun-gun. I tried to give it an honest shot, but every time I died in the opening level, my evening got just a little bit worse.

Undying Moon came with a copy of the original GetsuFumaDen for Famicom (ported by the masters at M2, no less) so I started playing it as a consolation prize only to discover it was completely untranslated. The game also came with a crisp scan of the instruction manual to give the player some extra guidance. This was also untranslated.

I'm not going to rate this, but that's okay because I don't really want to rate this. I don't really want to think about this much at all.
