Game's alright. Though for some reason it doesn't have a map function despite the flagrant misuse of the metroidvania tag. I swear to gosh so many games are slapping that bad boy on just because they're 2d platformers with the slightest hint of open ended exploration. (Read: Barely any)

Honestly it deserves far more popularity then it gets. I put it on the same pedestal or right next to Salt and Sanctuary. It's an excellent game and it keeps it definitely plays like a Souls Game. I definitely would recommend this game if your into a mix of platformer/souls-like lover.
