Great game
I love this game. Reminds me of Ninja Gaiden, but not as hard. Still challenging, but not too hard. The story is great and I love how it even hints at ninja gaiden and even talks about members of the staff staying late just to right dialogue for the shop keeper. Read more

Masterpiece
One of the best games ever created. Perhaps even my favorite in decades of gaming. I don't leave reviews often, but I want to thank the developers for this masterpiece of story and engaging gameplay. A clever and adventurous metroidvania, with witty dialogue and beautiful pixel art, great characters, and an outstanding soundtrack. I hope there are more like this. Read more
