It may still have some problems due to being early access (not dodging left or right when you aren't jumping in a 2d, semi-top and isometric perspective stages, at least with the controller and mostly noticeable in some boss fights, minor and even problematic performances problems in most of the the fourth world, bosses aside this time), but it's a very well done ingenious platformer, that always find a way to renovates itself in very interesting ways every few levels, even the hub often renovates itself in interesting ways. And the bosses, even not counting the still present problems due to its early access state, are still very cool, interesting to fight and mildly difficult, but they can always surprise you, so don't let your guard down. This game may not have as much fluidity as many famous platforms, but it's rythm is well done for every level, and if you're a completionist like me you will surely appreciate it (you can still appreciate it if you're not, but it feels very rewardin...
