Fantastic game, very enjoyable platforming. Will not hold your hand in many cases, you need to be very aware of how things in the environment look (looking at you slug positioning and scarabs) if you want to 100%! If you go for it, definitely go for the teleportation quest... I mean... it's a metroidvania, you really need the teleportation!

This game is delightful. Pinball physics aren't so accurate as the game focuses more on being a cute adventure/metroidvania game. Strong Rayman vibes.

Clearly the game is beautiful and there's a lot to love here aesthetically but functionally the game struggles imo, so I will give it the negative recommendation I feel it deserves, to offset the overwhelmingly positive rating. Perhaps I suck at pinball, but I just feel the physics with the paddles is off somehow... Same as other negative reviewers, I hit the ball over and over and it just goes to the same place.…
