Picked it up on a whim, glad I played it. It's overall solid with some issues.
-Control is great. Took a level or two to adjust to the dash jump timing, but once you do. You can blow through levels at high speed and it's a blast.
-Music's great
-There's a decent amount of variety to the platforming challenges, (though not the platforms themselves. I'll get to that later.)
-It wears its influence on it's sleeve, and I kinda love it. The X-Series is my favorite series. Being a fan of both 3D platformers and the X series, I felt right at home.
HOWEVER...
-Holy fuk these levels go on forever. And the same'yness of the platforms along with the environments make it feel even longer. I can blow through these levels in minutes, personally. It's pretty easy, but I think this will be a nightmare if you're not good at 3D platformers. I understand the want to give players more bang for their buck, but these kind of games I think work better in short bursts.
-Story is...fine. Voice actors are fine. The art is good. It's just kind of uninteresting overall, story-wise.
-Damn that ending was abrupt. I don't know much about the history of this game. It was a Kickstarter game, I guess, so I can't be too mad at that.
-Please, PLEASE just make the Buster charge up while I'm holding the button. Sometimes it just doesn't if you press it too soon after firing a shot. A minor annoyance, but a constant once.
You delivered something that was overall solid as hell, and I was glad to play.
Overall, still would recommend.
