A solid game that will appeal to certain types of players. Since the levels are deterministic and the patterns generally set (except for monsters that chase you) it lends itself to learning the levels and optimization. It's difficult on normal, but much more accessible on easy. The dev is responsive and key remapping is on the way.

It's a fun little game that you can lose a couple hours into pretty easily. It's very puzzle like in how you have to approach each stage and you learn more and more what the most optimal movements and attacks are with each death. Dev said they are gonna work on some quality of life things like customizing controls which was basically the only annoyance I had with the game. If your up for a challenge and wanna unlock some cute pets its decent way to spend a night.
Fun enemy sprites and worldbuilding. Definitely a challenge to beat on normal. Later bosses got pretty cool! And overall had lots of fun Get it and support indie devs!
This game is really good at making the simple man want to bash his head into the wall for DAYS. On par with not only cat mario, but has the same agonizing pain that comes from getting over it with bennet foddy (However you spell that). With this being the masochist's dream.... its not bad. 10/10
