What players think
The recurring themes across 50 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The pixel art is highly detailed, with smooth, frame-by-frame animation that gives both characters and environments a distinct sense of life.
The gameplay unfolds within a side-scrolling structure that emphasizes precision, timing, and careful decision-making.
This attention to detail extends to the overall presentation, where lighting, color, and animation work together to establish a mood that is consistently bleak and immersive.
The sound design is also very well done, with great ambient sounds and punchy gun shots.
very fun. loved the art and story. parrying and shooting feels good. steamdeck ran it perfectly
