    I'd say I came out of this positive, despite it being really short. The highlight was definitely the bosses, each one felt unique and had enough attacks to be interesting.

    It's fine. - Controls like absolute shit - Not one of the hitboxes in the entire game is where it should be - Its design very disjointed and pretty nonsensical - Narrative push is limited and that makes the world uninteresting - Exploration is deeply unrewarding as the currency is almost totally useless, the mutations mostly come with drawbacks that outweigh their benefits, and the skulls don't change gameplay much…
