Submitted on Review title of Parker7007If You Enjoy a Challenge.If you like old school sidescrollers like Contra or Castlevania you'll love this game. It's just as much about learning the levels as it is getting fast with the controls.
Anyone arguing they are 'clunky' simply didn't learn them or get past level 1. The controls are extremely responsive, allowing for some pretty awesome maneuvers once you've got em down, so don't let that dissuade you, it's just not true. What is true however is the punishing difficulty. Good replay value as well with secret levels and fun achievements.
The rating is unjust as I imagine it's a result of it being free on Gold and anyone PO'd by the difficulty giving it 1 star. Like Dark Souls games, it's frustrating at first but really fun once you've got it down. Well worth the $$ Best arcade game I've played in ages! Submitted on 4/8/2018 Review title of UnknownA solid exercise in my futility.Sometimes a game is hard because it's not very well made. Sometimes because it's developers are looking to challenge it's prospective players. Then there are times where a game is just too damn hard for it's own good. This game perfectly represents one of those times.

It's a good game. As far as I can tell anyway. Actually, as far as I know, the developers may have just done a really great job on the first level. There may only be one level! I couldn't tell you because this game is obnoxiously difficult.
With that said, it's also very well polished. The graphics are pleasing. The audio is good. The controls are tight and responsive.
It's all solid. But for real, bullying isn't cool. Just because you can kick my. over and over, and over yet again, doesn't mean you should.
