Valfaris is a sidecroller action game which takes place in the same universe as Slain: Back from Hell. This time around the core gameplay revolves around a big gun that consumes energy, a sword that restores energy on hit and a sidearm that doesn't require energy at all. There's a decent selection of weapons to choose from and level design is reasonably varied so the experience doesn't get repetitive in my opinion.
Once again, the aesthetics and soundtrack are impeccable and the gameplay is very tight for the most part. I do resent the upgrade system a bit because materials are rather limited so there isn't much room for experimentation. Also, just like Slain, the game is rather though, but I believe that's very fitting all things considered.
To conclude, Valfaris is sick \m/
