I am not usually into side scrolling hack and slash games with the exception of rare gems like Dead Cells and Dust:An Elysian Tail. But I am enjoying this game even though I am not great at it on normal difficulty. A lot of people comment on the wanting to turn off the narrator. Maybe its because it is my first play through, but I am loving the commentary and find a lot of it amusing. Especially the easter eggs you can find.

It's charming and the action is fun, albeit repetitive given the lack of enemy types. Unfortunately it's quite short, and the runtime is bloated by nearly every requirement for the true ending needing you to be afk for minutes at a time. The story wasn't super engaging and there's next to no replayability beyond one optional time attack area. The narrator bits were funny at first but quickly lost their luster given they lead to the afk simulators. The exploration is practically nonexistent as well given basically every optional room is accessed by ignoring the narrator's instructions. The game constantly reminds you that it’s a 2D action game but many of these segments are entirely out of place and would be genuinely funny in another genre

It's good
