Shantae and the Pirate's Curse

Enemies respawn often, which keeps up a constant flow of challenge, but can also get in the way when exploring an area that you've been through multiple times.

It’s a simple, fun and very solid platforming game, with great music and graphics pleasant to the eye, with a pretty neat story to boot.

Sound effects are clear and crisp, with a small touch of cartoon elements.

The first thing you'll notice is the overall quality of graphics and animation, with the game being mostly done in awesome high-quality pixel art.

The controls are responsive and in turn, the combat is quite fun and platforming feels very natural.

The PC port is serviceable; there are no performance issues, there's controller support, and your standard resolution options are all there.
