    Looks like a cool game - glad you liked it!
    I love that The Escapist reviews these smaller, interesting games i dont know about.

    This might be weird to say but honestly the most attractive point for me is the fact that it's not a roguelike.
    It looked like it could be one, but it isn't, and im glad.

      It's very sad to see how dominant the roguelike genre has become. I agree with you, definitely not a fan of roguelike games and glad this isn't one.

      I really like a lot of Rouge-lites, but you’re right, we need a few top down action games that are different.

      @@alexstone5410 I understand that many people like rogue-lites and that's fine! It's just that companies are hopping into the bandwagon making every game rogue-lite even though it doesn't fit just for the trend.

      I honestly thought it was gonna be a really pretty roguelike.
      Honestly, what I got was preferable to a roguelike.
      Not that I hate em (I’m addicted to them when they’re done well), but…wouldn’t be right if it was a roguelike, with what I just played.

      @@bigbluebuttonman1137 a rogue like is just developers that are lazy to make a whole game with many different areas and settle with 3-4 areas that are repeatable to not make it a 5-hour game, this has exceptions something like Hades is a roguelike but it definitely not lazy as the amount of story u progress through and many twists on the gameplay makes it one of the few roguelike I ever enjoyed

    Looks great, and it's getting great reviews.
    My favorite thing about this game, by far, is the fact that I first heard about it in 2021. I wishlisted it on Steam in 2021. It got a concrete release date in 2021, and it actually released complete (no early access, no reports of game-breaking bugs) in 2021!
    That is so rare for a game these days. Take notes devs...Big or small: Keep your hype machine in check until your game is ready.

    I finally managed to get all the trophies this past weekend, very much enjoyed this game. I am hoping they make a sequel, even if it ends up loosely connected (as it did with the prequel which is revealed in the full ending).

    I _loved_ the aesthetic of this game, it's just the right mixture of everything. The action is very solid, but I personally found the level layouts a little bewildering at times and the battles a tad unforgiving....but I think the last game action-adventure game I played was probably Link to the Past, so don't give my personal gripes much weight.

    Wow, I was not expecting the review to be this positive. I mean it was unlikely to be bad but I was expecting something much more common fare than this review suggests. Guess this will be a game I get sooner rather than later.
