Fast-paced action with perfect parry windows and slick dodges. Love it.

Pretty reasonable game with good combat, okay but confusing story. It's pretty reasonable length for a 2D of this genre.
The main focus of the combat is on the combos which are intricate and vital to doing well against the later bosses. Overall, pretty good pickup if you like these kind of games.

A fun game, similar to AfterImage game. There are some jumping mechanics that are not easily expressed on how to do. So i had to watch a video on the combos i could do to finish some the jump puzzles. But in the end it was a great game. I had fun.

Objectively this is a good game so I won't not recommend it ...to the right type of person. Subjectively I got bored and did not care for the game. The core of the game is "anime style hack and slash rack up the highest combo through memorized button combinations" type of combat. I'm not into that type of gameplay, especially in a MV, but if you are into that you will probably enjoy this game very much. Exploration mainly rewards orbs used to build your skill tree out, which mainly serves to boost your combos with buffs. So if you are not into the combat, the exploration doesn't feel very rewarding either. This one is probably a case of "right game for the right person".

I just beat the game for Ending A - clicking "Go Review" took me here instead of where I thought I was going, to clues to what I might have missed for other endings. Overall, 8/10 game - I would have liked more exploration and just "loose wandering" in my Metroidvania. Combat and movement does take a bit of getting used to, but it's not horrible. Overall: if you've played Afterimage and want more, this is a game you should look at.

I've been playing it for about 5 hours and I find it very interesting. For a while I had performance issues but with some tweaks here and there (between resolution, nvidia panel, etc.) I solved it even if I have to settle for playing it at 30 fps and 1280X720 resolution.
I'm playing on hardcore difficulty for now and I'm stuck on the first boss which has two phases (probably the third boss of the game I'm not sure), I still have to adapt to the counters and dodges, but the fights are quite dynamic and fun.
It's a sci-fi metroidvania-style action game with a female protagonist.
I really like the protagonist's design and she also has some unlockable costumes by playing, a couple with the Deluxe version. The environments are also beautiful. I can't express myself on the enemies since I'm still at the beginning.
The platform is quite intuitive and the levels are well interconnected. There are some tricky points and I hope there is a way to unlock fast travel later because otherwise it will be a real pain to go back or to certain areas of the map, since it is very large.
That said, it is a game that I can recommend for those who love platformers and metroidvania-style action and there is also a demo (which I have not tried).

ITALIAN:
Lo sto giocando da 5 ore circa e lo trovo molto interessante. Per un po' ho avuto problemi di prestazioni ma con qualche ritocco qua e là (tra risoluzione, pannello di nvidia, ecc.) ho risolto anche se devo accontentarmi di giocarlo a 30 fps e 1280X720 di risoluzione.
Sto giocando alla difficoltà hardcore per il momento e sono bloccato al primo boss che ha due fasi (probabilmente è il terzo boss del gioco non sono sicuro), devo ancora adeguarmi ai counter e dodge, ma i combattimenti sono abbastanza dinamici e divertenti.
E' un gioco sci-fi metroidvania-style action con protagonista femminile.
Mi piace molto il design della protagonista e ha anche alcuni costumi sbloccabili giocando, un paio con la versione Deluxe. Le ambientazioni sono altrettanto belle. Non mi posso esprimere sui nemici visto che io sono ancora all'inizio.
Il platform è abbastanza intuitivo e i livelli sono interconnessi bene. Ci sono alcuni punti complicati e spero ci sia più avanti un modo per sbloccare il viaggio rapido perché altrimenti sarà davvero una seccatura tornare indietro o in certe zone della mappa, essendo questa molto ampia.
Detto questo, è un gioco che posso consiglierei per chi adora i platform e metroidvania-style action e c'è anche una demo (che non ho provato).

The game is great and fun, even though it's short. However, it has the right idea, design, and characters. Thanks to the producers and everyone who made it. We hope to see a similar or even better game in the future. Thanks again.

Look, I like metroidvanias but am also not very good at games, so I have a low standard when it comes to pretty stylised metroidvanias that I actually have an ability to play (unlike, say, Nine Sols). And as such I won't pretend I didn't have a whole lot of fun with this until the final boss (which I could not do). But christ this game is a mess. Nonexistent worldbuilding consistency, a serious lack of enemy variety and the whole thing just feels sloppy. It fills time but I'd still have to describe it as Afterimage's sloppier sister.
