    A very fun and perfectly sized metroidvania, overall a great experience. There was some nitpicks , like some annoying runbacks that didn't seem to have a purpose and loosing gold on death without being able to recover them i didn't like.

    I enjoyed this one. Combat and boss fights were ok, not to frustrating. All the normal expected mechanics of this genre are in this one. Good playtime for the price. Give it a go.

    Yay. Another crappy platformer with sluggish, unresponsive controls and a character who controls like a bowling ball on ice skates. Yay, another crappy action game where your only weapon is a toothpick and you have to hit a boss 850 times with it and you get killed in two or three hits. So much fun. Yah, another Metroidvania where a plague has stricken the land -- how original! Yay, another crappy Metroidvania story…
