For such a visually wonderful game, with interesting gameplay, it's got some flaws that ultimately, mostly through the game, I threw it down and said "I'm done" and quit out. The good: Pixel art is great. Environments are great. Shaders look amazing, the mechanic of vision and shadows grew on me while I played. Lack of real combat in a metroidvania was interesting, you don't ever get a power trip, but become better…

despite the few bugs this game has like being locked in some spots or being discovered while inside hidden places, this game is really good, a nice metroidvania with stealth gameplay style, story is nice, the playbility is really nice, the way the story is told is very pleasant... it's a 9/10 for me.
