An incredibly charming platformer with gorgeous visuals and aesthetics.

The controls sharp but are a little floaty, although it suits the character. The game itself doesn't do a great job of encouraging you to return to previous parts of the map once you've obtained new skills to explore previously unreachable areas. Be it the lack of warp points to reduce traversal or that there is a bit of a grind to gain ability points, I couldn't bring myself to fully explore the map and max out Ori's skillset.

The story is a little on the basic side of things but it still draws you in with some touching moments throughout.

Definitely recommended, just maybe when it's on sale.
