A fun little metroidvania/action platformer. There is a ton of jank, but at the same time it is part of its charm. It isn't the kind of jank that fundamentally breaks a game but it is noticeable enough to maybe not be for everyone.

A very good 2D action platformer souls-like. The game is rather short, I completed the full playthrough in about 10 hrs, and in those 10 hrs I had a great time with it. Overall, an easy recommend for me. One of those small indie gems that pair well with Steam Deck. Pros: - The art style and the atmosphere are top tier. The game actually feels like a post-apoc cyberpunk. In fact, I'd absolutely love to see more games in the Dark Light's world. - Visuals are also great. The game punches above its weight when it comes to presentation. - The music is decent and aids in creating the atmosphere. - The movement is fluid and overall the controls feel good. - The combat is fun to engage in and satisfying. - There are a lot of character progression features - you can upgrade the attributes, health and stamina, weapons, drone skills, implants. Weapons can be infused with elemental effects. This creates a good variety of builds. - A decent variety of enemies and bosses. - There is a minor choice with consequence when it comes to side quests that encourages repeat playthroughs. - There are some interesting rogue-like elements when you accumulate the buffs and temporary skills that are reset on death. - Level design is good and I can't recall any time in the game when I was bored or frustrated by the levels. - The game doesn't overstay it's welcome and does not become boring. There is a NG+ mode in case you want more after the you finish it. - No bugs or performance issues. Cons: - The game is not really a metroidvania - it's mostly linear with some branching side quests. I'm personally fine with that, but keep that in mind when purchasing. - I found the load times on my Steam Deck rather long. - The balance is a bit off - it feels like the firearms are just too OP. - While I'm fine with it, I'm sure some other souls-like enjoyers will find the game a bit too easy, especially with the right build. NG+ does increase the challenge though. - The control scheme to use skills and throwables is not very convenient. Switching between those in the middle of the combat can be annoying.

one of the lowkey coolest developers on steam. this game, and the other one they're working on, has a really established vibe throughout that's very well done. cool art style. its like a whole weird mythology. the game is really cool. dark neon scifi. i feel like some kind of cable dude surviving the apocalypse. totally worth it if you like that kind of thing. compared to other side scrolls, this one feels a bit more like.. maybe splinter cell or half life or something. spooky and eerie and kind of tactical and techy. eldritch horror mixed with tactical combat.

Pretty good mechanics, graphics and gameplay. The map is a bit hard to understand, but everything else is really nice.
