    This game is not necessarily bad, and I can see some potential in it. However, there are quite a few things that need to be fixed and improved. First of all, the gameplay has several issues.

    This game has terrible hitboxes. Multiple times I've dodged out of the way, but I still inexplicably take damage. I have completed several Souls-like Metroidvania games such as Hollow Knight, Silksong, ENDER LILIES, ENDER MAGNOLIA, Blasphemous, and AWAKEN - Astral Blade, which all handle hitboxes accurately and precisely.
