Each level contains its own unique selection of foes, as well as its own unique style of design. Enemies are well-balanced and fit properly into the areas they are placed in. Fortunately, the various horrors that will be launched at you are well-designed, fair, and interesting. One way or another, you’ll have to adapt to everything the game throws at you. This means that you won’t be able to get through by simply memorizing every bit of the game. In addition, this contains many elements from the roguelike genre, and you know what that means: procedurally generated levels. Once you die, that’s it, the run is over. And there are no extra lives or continues to be found here. There is no shortage of challenges to be had.Īs I mentioned earlier, this is a game of brutal difficulty. Even the old vanishing platforms that everyone loved so much from the old games are here among all sorts of other things. This is a difficult game, filled with an ever-increasing number of threats, from robotic enemies to stage hazards to lava, or all sorts of other things. And one way or another, it’s bound to happen, probably sooner rather than later. No, it’s your own lack of skill against the challenges you face that’ll cause that to happen. You will never get killed by the fault of the controls alone. Your character’s movements flow nicely, and maneuvering yourself around accurately is easy to do. The controls are pretty much perfect as far as I’m concerned. In addition to shooting, chopping, jumping, and throwing crazy powers around, you also have the ability to use a charged attack, and you can wall-jump as well, and sort of cling onto them a bit and attack from there even. As in the old games, when you defeat a boss, it’s power is yours to take, and each boss is weak against a specific power gotten from a different boss.
