This is one of my favorite games of all time.
I have Hornet tattoo'd on my leg as part of a larger piece.
Seriously, if you enjoy a rich world, rewarding exploration, excellent controls, interesting movement tech and fun boss fights, just get it.

Early Access Review
I've been an early supporter of 20XX (previously Echoes of Eridu) and each new transition the game makes has been towards a better end. The art style is striking and distinct, the music addictive and catchy, the controls have always been very tight which makes the platforming and combat really shine. The playstyle distinction between Nina and Ace is very well established and makes for two solid experiences. The co-op is a very welcome addition as well, distinctly adding to the experience without bogging down the core game.

Over all this is a game I love seeing grow. The devs are incredibly friendly, have been hugely open to feedback and are making something you can tell they love. They're awesome with communication, and the title screen even displays planned drop times for updates. This is a game that definitely does Early Access right, and you won't spend days wondering "What did my money go to, anyway?" - this coming from someone who backed it on kickstarter ;)

I would very much recommend this game to anyone with a love of Mega Man, specifically the X series; the obvious inspiration is used tastefully, and feels like an appropriate ode to the things that made the X series fun to play. If you're weird and have never played Mega Man X, then I'd say if you like faster paced platformers, you'll enjoy this as well.

Had a blast with this. Fantasticly tight controls, neat mechanics, challenging level design. Haven't had a platformer this satisfying since Super Meat Boy! Definitely a must grab for platform fans!

Like Three-Wolf Moon, this game changed my life. After just seeing the title screen, I felt increased levels of energy and an immediate boost in confidence. After an hour of play I had lost 20 lbs. of excess weight, and after three hours I gained extra muscle tone!

The gameplay itself is tremendously engrossing, and I feel compelled to finish each level as completely as possible! As if, somehow, every time I kill a cat, I take its extra lives.

It's hard to believe that you can get all of this for a mere $0.49 right now. Steam is truly changing the world.

A must buy!
