alr i played this game thru netflix but it was so good i had to buy it. the only other one of these 2d slash n dashers or whatever they're called i've played is dead cells so this is not my typical genre but this thing's got such a unique (and addictive) fight system that I was hooked. plus the art's incredible, the soundtrack's really immersive, and there's literally nothing bad about this game except for how the story's so so good and well presented but also like. half finished. but the dlc trailer came out this year so...

I absolutely suck at this game and got my ass kicked repeatedly, but it's a fantastic game with a great atmosphere and a surprisingly memorable and deep plot for a indie pixel game. I loved it, but I could never finish it, and had to watch a longplay on Youtube cause it was just kicking my ass near the end. I'm 38 and got stoner reflexes so game was done for me.

Even though the playtime is short. This game is quite amazing in both mechanics and graphics.
I am very excited for more.

Sick pixel art, frustrating yet fair game play that scratches that itch of satisfaction when you *just* eke through. Smooth animation. Cryptic story line that slowly fills in the pieces to keep you engaged without getting stupidly abstract. Looking forward to what comes next for the deadliest bathrobe I've ever seen.

amazing soundtrack, amazing game-play. amazing story and amazing concept found myself playing it all in one sitting till 6 in the morning and enjoying every bit of it, from the challenge to the twists and turns of the story. 10/10 would ruin my sleep schedule again.

Played the game, got 2 of the endings (I'm not sure if there's more or not), and did all of that within less than 5 hours.
Now, that may not sound like enough time to craft a beautiful story, but I don't know *what* Justin was smoking because this man created a masterpiece that you can play multiple times within a day's time. The ONLY thing I can really say is "rough" about this game is the fact that some levels are about as hard as your average Dark Souls boss. Ironically, especially when it comes to certain bosses. But with enough determination and learning, they become much easier, so it's less a "critique" and more "something I wasn't anticipating".
Otherwise:
Graphics - Not hyper realistic, but super stylized and matches the world well!
Story - 9/10, the only downside is that I'm left wanting more (which, with any luck, we'll get soon enough)
World building - Kinda hard to say, but it's solid and does its job. There's a bit of confusion (at least on my part) about when this game exactly takes place, but that's not really a necessary detail
Character design - Well made and unique.
Characters themselves - They "have their own voice" so to speak. Comedy and Tragedy both have VERY unique ways of speaking from one another, other characters are either lovable or hate-able (in a good way), and there's enough choices to determine the kind of person you want to be in the game
Overall - I don't want to give this game a 10/10 until the full story is released. That being said, I really enjoyed my time playing it, and getting it for like $9 (on sale) was a steal and a half. I would genuinely say this is an 8/10 game overall!
