[h3]Game Feel and Atmosphere[/h3] The game feel is simply excellent.
Strong Atmosphere
you fail and you still return, slightly wiser, slightly sharper and slightly closer to mastery!
High Skill Ceiling
This approach made me confident to take on bosses because the devs did a beautiful job with mini bosses acting like skill…
Boss Rush
Really good and symbolic story and very replayable
