Cute and charming Metroidvania meets Pinball. Mostly letdown because of clunky controls.

Especially the grappling which is a guessing game as to where you will fly when you let go, i ended up giving up on trying for 100% when one of the collectibles where placed in a spot requiring extremely precise timing after 20 tries i gave up. The Spider boss also pissed me off, because of the way it was designed meaning that it if you mess up it you fall down to previous area, which means i spent more time pinballing myself back up to the boss arena than i did in the arena.

It leads to a game which frequently frustrated me with controls that just aren't precise enough for what the game asks of you at times. The to mention the backtracking gets old quick. The "Git Gud" crowd can maybe dismiss that, but to me it ruins what could have been an easy recommend because everything else is good.
