What players say

Players praise the game as a love letter to NES-era Castlevania with Mega Man X mechanics, but many criticize its lack of volume settings, a map, and controller rebinding, plus unfinished translations. Opinions split on difficulty, some find it rewarding after initial frustration, while others call it too short and dull.
