Fidget is just adorable and her fur is so floofy!

I just realized I never left a review of this game for some reason???
I 100%ed this game years ago and loved every second of it, weird I didn't go ahead and drop a review afterwards like I usually do.

Anyway it's great. The """furry""" artstyle can scare some people off, but don't let that be a detractor.

It's easily one of the best metroidvanias I've played. SUPER good visuals, strong music, a... decent story that has a strong start and many good portions but drops off a little bit towards the end.

Some of the best combat I've seen out of a game like this in general, too. You get plenty of combo options that flow SUPER smoothly into each other (helped along by the really good character animation), along with your projectile attacks that act separately from your main character and can be comboed into with your melee attacks for chain reactions. It's SUPER fun, genuinely.
Comes with the usual "dodge roll"-type mechanics and heavily-telegraphed enemy attacks to avoid cheap shots, which it mostly achieves.

Really my only big complaint about this game would be how easy it tends to get because of how good your main character and combat options are, but that can be somewhat remedied by playing on the higher difficulties from the get-go.
Maybe not the HIGHEST highest difficulty because then you'll start the game getting two-tapped by every enemy, but playing on Hard feels like a decent beginner point. Probably.


Anyway yeah, if you spot this on sale (which happens often), ABSOLUTELY get it. It's an absolute classic of an indie that barely shows its age at all.
