I played the demo early last year thinking. Yeah that was pretty good. Wonder how it will do. Then I heard nothing about it really. Over the winter sale I decided that I wanted to check out the full release and see how it was. The answer is better!

The game is really all about movement, If you are familiar with Umihara Kawase, just like it the game uses moment from a grappling hook as the primary form of movement which doesn't stray too much from the path. But increases in complexity, which means that You are tested on what you learn, and any repeats will likely allow you to sequence break. The game looks great with some classic indie style graphics you'd find in momodora or cave story, and the story albeit tame is quite an interesting take for an area that is usually often in the limelight. at 10 hours long, for 95% completion. This feels like a great addition to any metroidvania library, maybe a must have, definitely my fav from the subgenre in 2023. And one I recommend to anyone want that spice of difference in the honestly pretty safe genre.
