You can ignore the reviews that claim this is a scam game or something, it isn't. It's a platformer/shooter that seems inspired by "Cave Story" but doesn't quite have the charm to hold all the pieces together in the same way. It's good though, if you can get past some glitches that can get you softlocked. The game was patched a few years back so this is essentially the totally playable final version. There are some issues with the scripting, but conveniently there are checkpoints everywhere and you can restart levels so there won't be anything that will force you to do a complete game reset to start over. As far is if you should play it... it depends on what you're looking for. I absolutely love this game's graphics, as they're the perfect mix of charming MSpaint and skilled artistry. The music is not quite as good, and perhaps that's part of the reason this doesn't come anywhere near cave story. The combat is also good but kind of clunky. After you start getting guns it gets to be a lot more fun. I actually had the most fun with this game fighting through the boss fights on hard because they are legitimately difficult and require specific strategies and timing to win. Later on there's a hoverboard segment and you also get a jetpack which is cool. This is a very linear game where you are given a small area to explore, beat it and move onto the next area. I could not make heads or tails (pun not intended) of the story because the translation isn't great and it's not very interesting anyway. There's a bit of a puzzle element, but it's very light. The bulk of the challenge here just comes from the platforming, shooting and ticking off the achievements if you so choose. Near the end of the game you get a sawblade and while it's literally just a circle you shoot at enemies it feels like such a massive improvement since the enemies have so much health. There's also weapon upgrades that temporarily make the shotgun or pistol more powerful, but they're gone forever once they run out. Some RPG aspect like leveling would have helped, but there are health capsules (like in Cave Story) laying around. There are also some collectibles that are really hard to find and I had to do three playthroughs to find all of them. You can "sniff" to find hidden walls and many of the collectibles are hidden in the walls, making them easily missable. Overall this is far from the best game but it's totally real and playable. I recommend it if the graphic style interests you, just be aware that there's a tad bit of jank and the harder difficulties can be quite unfair and frustrating at times.
