The art is nice and the combat looks like it could be fun. Metroid-style world is awful though. I never like that.

takes forever to boot. Like few mins, wtf is this? not like anything special is happening inside. Also few agreements, EULAS, and that extremely annoying hold space to agree(I assume console shit?)
Used keyboard. dodging(shift) crashes the game if used frequently.
Most useless char gen, could have skipped it and provide screen shot instead at this point.
Going left to progress is extremely weird, not sure if i could get used to it. You start in the middle of nowhere, with hostile environments in both directions. Some city/hub instead would make more sense...
Slashing sword while mid air results in double jump... sort of. It is funny considering that your character cant double jump normally
While on jumping - there are lots of platformer sequences but I find it impossible to 'feel' my character jump distance. Thinking about it now perhaps thats the reason why every ledge is marked as something you can hang on to? Devs might have tried to fix this issue by giving you some leeway. Instead now every jump appears to be tuned to your character barely making it and grabbing the ledge, thus increasing my frustration. It aint prince of persia
gameplay(combat) wise I think I hate 2d souls like games. Or at least this one? I loved regions of ruin, not sure what makes it different from this
