I used a guide to help get the best ending because I wasn't sure if I was going to play the game again. One of the sections after this was my quit moment for the game that I didn't want to continue after reaching. I personally felt the game has a significant difficulty spike after The Core boss battle. A lot of the time the clues to open the path are cryptic as well. Someone tells you to get something (not a weapon or ability, usually just an item), you get it, you use it, the path opens. Progressing through the game doesn't involve upgrades opening new path, it is usually more akin to a fetch quest in an mmorpg. Tons of people call this a Metroidvania style of game, but I really don't see that at all. Progressing through the game doesn't involve upgrades opening new path, it is … I know, 'git gud', but it makes me just want to play passively and boring instead of trying to run and gun through a level. The weapons downgrading when you get hit feels like too much of a punishment for me. I feel like this was more annoying than engaging. Most of the difficulty fighting the normal enemies just felt like the creator just dumped a bunch of them in a room and said 'that will be hard enough'. I don't know if it is just me, but the normal enemies were really boring and not interesting to interact with. Trying a boss again but having to scroll through a whole cutscene of text is just frustrating. I would think that this is something the + version of the game would fix first. Options to have your main gun differ between playthroughs.

Was much more engaging and full of surprises than I thought. As a fan of old school games and Metroidvanias, I thought this would be right up my alley but left me frustrated. This is the first game I have had to get my thoughts down for in a review.

The thing I didn't understand however is the strange 3D release that came afterwards, which looks much worse than this. It's a very polished indie game, which was made by (one or more?) obviously very skilled game designers. This is one of the few games I know where I really found the last boss the hardest. But some of the Boss battles can be a hard nut to crack.

The game for the most part isn't too challenging, especially when you reach the highest weapon level. While I like all of them I had the most fun trying to fly while shooting downwards with the machine gun. There is several weapons to choose from and each weapon feels different. The sub sections of the level are mostly linear so you usually don't get lost. The environments are atmospherical, but extremely spacey at times. It's a Metroidvania game, so essentially a mix of open-world rpg-ish elements with 2D platforming. I have to admit that I didn't pay much attention to the sound though. Visually I think this is a work of art, and interestingly even though it is completely 2D the 3D effect on the 3DS works great in this game. It's a nice no-outline pixel style that works with a small color palette on sprites, but packs a lot of character and cuteness.
