Really wonderful game with that mixes Dark Souls inspired combat with 3D platforming in a super fresh and unique way. I thought it would feel a bit gimmicky, but they really nailed both genres in a way that gives the game a unique feel.

The writing is really great as well, both the funny and the serious. The seriousness and intensity of the game ramps up as you go along, both in writing and in world design, so that by the end it ends up feeling a bit like Spongebob characters dropped into a Dark Souls game but never really feels out of place.

My only complaint would be that the difficulty curve felt a bit off, with the last third or so of the game starting to feel easier. But they really nailed the difficulty of the last couple of bosses, so to me that made up for it.
