Six years ago, the Machine Legion invaded and colonized the Torch City, which was originally inhabited by animals. Rayton, the former soldier in the resistance war, has been living in seclusion since then. After his friend is forcibly arrested, Rayton reclaims his mechanical fist and steps to his journey fighting back. And he never expects that he has been involved in a bigger scheme between the mafia, the rebellion, and the legion.

Everything looks pretty good except for the fact we play as an object of furry's sexual degeneracy. Why a bunny? Weirds me out a little. Still, will keep an eye out thanks for posting.

Looks awesome. Have had it on my radar. Will share impressions once I've cleared my plate with what I'm playing.

Played it.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with the game, it's pretty, polished and has all the metroidvania paraphernalia.

Problem is there's nothing to excite or surprise you either. I felt like I've played all that a hundred times before even though I'm a genre noob and I've only played 5 metroidvanias in my life. Not good.

It's also not very challenging, only a handful tricky platforming sections and the bosses are quite easy.

I wasn't outright bored but I was so utterly meh-ed by the game I gave up when I came across the first somewhat challenging boss fight, at about 80% of the game. Didn't even finish.

Yeah, I guess I didn't care about the setting either, due to my distaste for anything "-punk" - steampunk, clockworkpunk, dieselpunk etc. Fucking hate retrofuturism.
