this couldve been a great game, it does have great potential, but having to aimlessly walking around + not knowing if you have the right abilities for that one section is just killing my fun. it was like 70% playing the game and 30% googling what the game actually wants from me. i dont even wanna know how it would be without the new map update.
besides that, it does have good and unique platforming abilities with well designed areas to explore. not a big fan of the airkicking tho

Rabi-Ribi
2016
This might be the ugliest game I've ever played and it's not cause of the "Anime Fan-Service" Aesthetic.
Rabi Ribi suffers from the worst case of style inconsistency imaginable.
The quality, the art-style and even the pixel size feels completely randomized.
And i'd generally say this is worse than when a game consistently amateurish in it's art, cause at-least it's consistent.
For a Metroidvania it kinda loses a lot of the fun in exploring cause of it being such an eyesore.
But I gotta say the combat is pretty fun even if the animations are really awkward.
And the boss-fights are quite fun even if they can be quite dragged out.

This is a great Metroidvania, with an amazing soundtrack and glorious yet weird art style. Do yourself a favour to pick this one up, it is miles better than Symphony of the Night ever was.
