“one of the best platformers I've played, masterpiece”
Перед началом игры, я всерьез думал что это будет просто какой то красивый простенький платформер. Но мои 429 смертей на средней сложности сказали мне иначе... По самой игре ЭТО ПРОСТО ШЕДЕВР! Это пожалуй один из лучших платформеров, в которые мне удалось сыграть. [b]✔️Мало того что картинка супер классная, так еще и геймплейно слишком затягивающе. Даже не смотря на то, что умирать приходилось очень много, однако всеравно было приятно использовать всякие приемы, находить какие то ништяки, сражаться, ну и конечно прокачиваться. ✔️Саундтрек прям отличный! В моменте побега из за этого саунда у ме

“constant framedrops throughout the game” (8)
14 Stunden gespielt. Grundsätzlich ein schönes Game. ABER: an vielen Stellen einfach dämlich hakelig und dadurch unnötig schwer!!! Das hat nix mit Skills zu tun - das ist einfach nur schlechtes Design. Immer und immer wieder künstlich verkomplizierte und bockschwere Passagen.
