April 2025
I enjoyed the story and characters quite a bit. I really didn't enjoy the random card system, but it didn't stop me from having fun with the overall package.

This game is honestly really well made, and so far the characters have a decent story going on. Gameplay wise, the game so far has a decent difficulty curve, especially if you are trying for no hit runs on the ambushes or boss fights. If you are just trying to win, you have plenty of variety in your skill setup to do just that. Story wise, I will say so far it has intrigued me, i wouldn't say hands down the best, but definitely worth experiencing. I have noticed that most of it is told as background from characters. so if you don't interact with any npcs other than what is required. The story may be lacking. Art or Graphics wise, phenomenal, really well done. Overall I would suggest this game to anyone that is a fan of bullet hells and metroidvanias. And so far the back tracking is minimal unless you want to go for 100% run through, and even then it's been bearable.

It took me about 2 months of playing off and on (around 11 hours) to 100% the game. Do I recommend it? Yes. Was it what was I expecting? Not really. Bullet hell metroidvania sounds incredibly promising, and while the game is good it tends towards frustration. I would perhaps blame that on mana for cards getting funneled into powerful weapon cards and there not being a lot of unlockable metroidvania features. Some people with a better brain than me might make interesting decks, I made one that allowed me to use the most powerful weapon card in the game as much as possible (and I probably didn't do that very well either.) That being said there's no long-term missables, the story/art/music are good, and it drew me in enough to want to actually 100% the game.

The first part of this review is going to be about the game, the second part is going to b**** about the quality of reviews, both steam and otherwise. You've been warned. Yes, I am using this review as my soapbox. Deal with it. First part: This game is great. In fact, it's fantastic. If you like Metroidvanias you will like this game. Frankly, I think it deserves to be mentioned with the same kind hallowed tone as Ori and Hollow Knight. I am not even really a fan of bullet hell games, but this one isn't unfair and that's my usually gripe about bullet hells. I found many of the bosses and ambushes to be quite challenging, but also extremely satisfying. The artwork and music are wonderful. If you are a connoisseur of game music, go add "Mirror Lake" to your Spotify playlist. The story also has its ups and downs, and while I am usually the first to predict how a story will go by the time the introduction is finished, this one had me guessing. Several characters go through story arcs that have important themes like the burden of celebrity and what it means to have a hero complex. There is even a sort of morality mechanic that will determine how quickly you can level up your skills and demonstrates the dangers of propaganda. Metroidvanias live or die by their exploration and skill mechanics and I think this game really shines in that arena. Because your character flies, and thereby can inherently access a lot of the screen real estate to begin with, there aren't as many skills to acquire throughout the game, but personally I think this prevents a lot of unnecessary backtracking. To keep it spicy there is a spell system, which adds just a little bit of deckbuilding. The spells in your deck are randomly selected and applied to three slots so certain bosses may require a little bit of frequency analysis-type thinking. I really love this aspect. I love that there is a little bit of chaos to contend with as you run out of mana whilst hoping the spell you need pops up soon. When your heavy hitting spell pops up and you have the mana to use it and you slam that boss with the final hit, it's very satisfying. This is a solidly executed game. Buy it. Second part: I generally like what Team 17 publishes. I love Metroidvanias. I followed and wishlisted this game before it was released. Why did it take me two years to finally follow through and buy it? The word "Mixed". Mixed reviews. It seems like small Indie studios have the worst luck when it comes to game reviews because everyone is so eager to be edgy about their opinion. But if you actually go through and read some of the "mixed" reviews, you'll find most of them actually say the game is excellent but they had gripes about either tiny polishing details or that certain spells didn't feel like they had enough oomph. But otherwise they are saying the game is great. A lot of these reviews even incorporate their own rating system, like "4/5" in their reviews but then select "not recommended". It's insanity. Yes, Steam binary yes/no review system is awful. In my opinion, the only reason you should say a game is not recommended is for bugs, bad development, or unforgiveably bad gameplay. If it's a well executed game but you just, personally didn't like the story, for the love of God just click the thumbs up and explain. I find this problem extends to critic reviews as well. The Metacritic score is unbearable low. One critic said it has "too many mechanics" and the only thing I can conclude from that is that this person is a moron. Some reviews said the game is "excellent" and then gave it a score of 70. Clearly these people got C-'s in high school and felt contritely that their work was actually excellent. So dear reader, don't be like me, Buy the games you are excited about and refund it under two hours if you see it going downhill right away. Don't be like me and miss out on a great game for two years because people are idiots.

Very cute and fun metrovidian game. I don't understand the bad review. The game is not perfect, but the graphics are gorgeous, the story interesting and the card systems for spells is original.
