❤ Exploration and Open World

Players can freely explore the game's expansive, 2,100 x 1,200 meter open world from the very beginning. The entire map is accessible, allowing players to navigate and discover the world at their own pace. This open design encourages exploration, as there are no blocked or gated paths, enabling players to uncover secrets and hidden areas throughout the vast game world.

❤ Platforming and Traversal

Players widely praise the platforming as tight, responsive, and challenging. The protagonist has a full set of movement abilities from the start, including dashing, climbing, and wall-jumping, enabling complex and rewarding traversal sequences. Many players draw comparisons to the precision platforming in Celeste, though the game provides its own unique flavor of challenging 2D platforming. While the platforming can be quite difficult in parts, the game provides a range of accessibility options to adjust the difficulty, such as infinite dashes and respawning after death. This allows players of various skill levels to enjoy the exploration and traversal at their own pace.

❤ Combat and Abilities

The combat system provides a satisfying complement to the platforming and exploration. Players have access to a variety of sword-based attacks and combos, allowing for dynamic and engaging battles against the game's enemies. While some players feel the combat could use more depth and variety, the ability to upgrade the protagonist's sword provides a sense of progression and encourages experimentation with different combat techniques.

❤ Progression and Customization

Instead of a traditional Metroidvania-style progression system, players have access to the full suite of movement and combat skills from the start, allowing them to approach the world in their own way. However, the game still provides a sense of progression through the acquisition of new gear, equipment, and weapon upgrades. Players can also find and unlock a variety of cosmetic outfits for the protagonist, adding an element of customization and self-expression. The open-ended nature of the progression, coupled with the responsive and challenging platforming, create a unique and rewarding gameplay loop that many players find highly enjoyable.
