I'll leave a narrow recommendation for this one despite the fact that i'm probably going to put it down here. I've defeated 3 bosses, found 1 traversal upgrade and seen plenty of biomes and feel as though I'm only scratching the surface of the game. This must be among the most obscure 'large' metroidvanias (Mortal Manor being another). Probably due to its lack of marketing and having a sizeable pricetag while graphically looking very ugly and basic. There's a lot of open, somewhat lifeless space in this game which undermines its otherwise grand size (And is why I'm probably going to stop playing). Exploration is perhaps more open-world than branching path; there were countless directions I could go when I stopped playing. You zip around the map very quickly (Be it horizontal or vertically) which compensates for this a bit. You will have numerous falls from high places however ..VERY HIGH places! which always caused me to groan and force a repeat of my climb back up. Anything ...

If you like metroidvanias with tricky platforming, MASSIVE exploration, combat with an insanely high chaotic power level, and having to master game mechanics that feel alien at first but eventually "click", this is the game for you! Genuinely one of the most unique, original games I have played in recent years [h3]IMPORTANT NOTE!! there is currently an issue me and others have experienced where the game starts with a blank screen. Pressing alt+enter twice always fixes it for me, so try that if it happens to you! (alt+enter switches between windowed and fullscreen mode)[/h3] This game is incredible, someday I want to write a more in-depth review about it (after I've completed it), but I've still explored a lot in both the original demo (I have 6.6 hours in it) and the full game, and so far it has been fantastic! (still have only killed 2 bosses and have around 80% of the map hidden so I still have a lot to see!)

So, I've finished the game. I tentatively recommend, but be aware of what you're getting into. The good: very unique game, enormous world, destruction! you really do get to rip your way through the world and it can feel awesome, some really epic boss fights, abilities feel unique with some pleasant natural synergising in how you play, interesting combat I haven't seen before, unique and interesting movement, speed!. There's a lot in this game that is awesome. However, there is just as much that hampers my enjoyment and brings the game down. If these things were different, this game could be a real treasure: -first off, it's not a pretty game. I won't mince words, I have pretty low standards when it comes to visual taste, but there's just not nearly enough detail in any asset of the game for it to enhance anything in playing it. -It is very buggy. My game must have crashed over 20 times. Usually it would be when there is too much going on, or if I'm digging blocks just too well or sp...

This game is fire. Graphics are spectacular! its a story that unravels as you travel thought this broken world, slowly putting together the parts of what happened. also you character is literal fire. whale
