Graphically it could have looked better. Maybe they could have gone the 2d sprite route even.
But still im confident that this will be a good game since the dead cells devs are working on it if im not mistake .

Looks like issues / bugs from the demo are also present in the 1.0 game.

MIXED reviews on Steam atm.

Gave this a warez yesterday. I really really enjoy the art style of this game, really pops on OLED monitor.. just when i thought OLED monitors were becoming pointless due to dumbass devs adding a grey tint/filter over everything. Oh, you have to enable vsync and enable a frame limit to the game to get it to start btw Laughing

Does the game feel like a castlevania game? Not really, but is that a terrible thing? How many times do you need to play the same game over and over again. I'm glad a new dev took a fresh crack at it.

Negatives-the dodge/slide seems inconsistent, i-frames on it are weird. You need to do everything kind of early in this game compared to something like Hollow Knight.

The audio is lacking-voices sound terrible and tinny, the highs sound blown out especially the girlboss's voice. Music seems more for background mood rather than something thats gonna get stuck in your head all day.. no bangers yet. Anyway only 2 or 3 hours in, wonder if it'll get better.
