What a fantastic game. Beautiful, emotional storyline, vibrant and awesome visuals and landscapes, superb voice acting, and smooth, fun battle and movement mechanics. I loved traversing this world, and it is so fun and rewarding when you can glide through the levels after mastering all of the abilities. The bosses are fun and interesting, and provide a light challenge that's neither boring, nor frustrating. The hidden collectibles are fun to find simply by exploring and testing out mechanics, and backtracking through areas does not get boring or repetitive since you rarely have to do it more than once. Will definitely do another playthrough eventually.

This is a marvelous game. It's gorgeous, runs like butter, has a great difficulty curve, and easy and intuitive controls. The sound design in this game is amazing; both the individual songs on the collectible vinyls, and the various sound effects around the world. From the diverse voice acting to the footsteps on cobblestone, the clicking and whirring of the puppets, it all does a lot to build the atmosphere and aesthetic. The sound of a perfect parry is also particularly satisfying! The storyline is neat, and I enjoyed all the lore bits that are scattered throughout the world. Highly recommend, and I hope that this is the start of a really cool franchise.

I enjoyed this game. The story is fun and mildly dark with some political intrigue that's really neat, the characterization and sounds for the characters is cute, and the art style is great. Lots of fun being in the world.

The only thing that could be annoying for some people is that you often are backtracking and being sent to the same location over and over to progress the story or get some materials to progress the story. For people not already desensitized by MMO fetch quests, I can see how that can be super annoying, particularly because it slows the pace of the game and storytelling to a crawl.

Aside from that, the boss fights are awesome and difficult. Once you get the two-handed weapon, you cannot just mindlessly wind up to break a shield, as you will get counterhit, so be sure to pick a good time to charge up... However, once you get the gun, the game becomes rather easy. All in all, great experience.

Game constantly crashes. There is no fix, and apparently one is not coming. Waste of time and money.

Super fun indie runner game! Great art style and awesome tunes! Love the cool visual storytelling and it has some nice replay value with the outfit unlocks, bonus levels, and for those who like to get the best times possible. Would love to see a Settings option added, as well as maybe making the continue button after you die be space or enter, rather than "any" button. When holding sprint, if you die and try to immediately restart, the game will register it as you selecting quit instead. Very much interested in seeing how this game develops further! Keep up the great work! Very good

Quite the beautiful game and story. The environments are gorgeous, creative, and diverse and provide a good amount of exploration for those who like to meander through rather than immediately follow the path. Puzzles are fun and generally direct, though the real challenge lies in scouring each stage for all the collectables. Love the art style and the music pairs well with the visuals and story beats for evoking emotion. A wonderful experience overall.
