Kind of shocked at how little people played this game, it's really good! Perfectly crafted, difficult but the controls felt so good and the game is plenty fair with placing checkpoints in between sections, wish I had more to say but I rarely leave reviews, fantastic job!

I don't usually write reviews (I honestly should do more) BUT this game I need to. I 100% the game on Steamdeck so for those that are curious YES you can play this on a Steamdeck or a Linux OS using Proton. I was pleasantly surprised on how good this game was. We need more like this. Its like a harder Astro Bot that decided to be a (in terms of difficulty) a souls like. But It's never unfair. The checkpoint system is what keeping this game from turning unfair. It enough to not be too easy but to also not be frustrating. Similar to Clustertruck. Trying to do no abilities on Clustertruck is FUN due to the fact that its by a level system and the level's only take up to 5 min max. There is enough distance between each section that balances the frustration so its not overbearing. To me there does get a point were if something is TOO difficult its no longer fun for me. I did not get that feeling what so ever for this game. For someone who grew up playing and finishing both Crash Bandacoot on GBA there are some sections that are harder here than those games. There is also some places in the game that can be annoying to deal with. Overall a great challenge for those that love Platforming or Precise Platforming. A decent chunk of time spent on the game was during AFK. So the amount of time playing the game is not accurate to how long it really took. The timer in-game continues even with it paused so it took me roughly 5+ hours, not over 6 hours. But this was 100% blind. Talking about blind, this game does not need a guide if you explore properly. I didn't have a problem grabbing the hidden notes. I think the way the level's to the game were unique as it felt like any direction you took will lead you to a new area or something to collect (gem/animal). Nothing really felt like a dead end. The only nitpick I have is I wish you gain more fast travel points for each area making it easier over time. So lets say you leave and come back you don't have to redo certain area's. Also Tip for those that play this game, save the last area HECK for last. Due to the design of the area. You can get into the place before finishing or exploring other area's. Due to 80% of the section being behind non fast travel points and being the hardest area you wish to not redo certain sections. If you get into HECK early just get to the fast travel point and wait or 100% HECK. Anyways that Is It for this review. Thanks for reading and have a nice day!

this game is extremely good, THE definition of hidden gem, the controls are very tight and the level design is top notch, there's always something fresh. I only wish the game had more to offer
