FAN ART

Enemies are cool as alot of variety to them and all have own look and all have own attacks to learn in order to beat them.

Skills are nice as alot of them offering own uses and can pick and choose ones to suit own build.

Controls are nice and easy to understand and nice to pick up and play.

World is fun to explore and has alot of secrets to find.

Accessibility is very cool as can change how much damage you give or take and even add the secrets to maps to help find secrets and much more is great for all types of players.

Nice sci fi aesthetics and very detailed world to explore.

No real story made it hard to connect with the character and the world.

Clunky controls makes it feel stiff for movement and jumping which can be frustrating.

Combat felt clunky and stiff for dodging enemy attacks as trying avoid them felt clunky not as smooth as hoped for.

Easy to get lost as not explained how to get to some of the objectives.

OVERALL SUMMARY

Overall enemies cool, skills are good as can make own build and controls are easy to pick up and play with the world is fun to explore with a nice sci fi feel that is detailed and very great accessibility to adjust amount of damage you take and even damage you do to enemies and much more is great for all types of players. However for £15.99, no story made it hard to connect with the character and the world and the clunky stiff controls made it hard for combat, jumping and easy get lost as not clear best way to get to certain objectives.
