Anyone want to talk about how the game is instead of the other nonsense? I’d like to know how people are liking the game so far.

Checked out a couple of videos. Interesting setting and mythology but the action and platforming seems kinda derivative. Like a lesser Ori. Prince of Persia looks much better so probably going to go with that one.

I've been playing it on Ps5. I like it a lot, the platforming seems to have more of an emphasis than other games in the genre. The fact that it does not cost anything is a bonus, highly recommend playing it.

Lesser Ori is pretty on point based on what I’ve played so far. A lot of weird design decisions, too, that a more experienced dev probably would have avoided, but for a first game? Pretty decent. And the African theme is neat.

Nice, just downloading now. Thanks!

In Act 3 now, still nothing "political" or anything like that. I like it.
I will hopefully finish it today.

I finished and got the platinum as well. Some sections towards the end were annoying lol, as in instakill sections and you had to repeat it.

Other than that, not a bad game, the fighting is mediocre but the story was fine. The soundtrack and visuals are also fine.

Would rate the game a 7/10.

Played it thanks to PS Plus. It seems fine. I have too many good games to settle on fine though.

Not bad for a first project. If they do make another game, I hope they stay away from SBI.

I got all the way to the end and couldn't finish due to that escape platforming section. I got through the 2 escape platform sections in Act II, but this one is just too tough for me. Pretty frustrating as I enjoyed the game, otherwise. If there was literally one more checkpoint in there, I'd be able to get through it.

Played a bit of this today. The game itself is pretty decent, tight controls, good metroid-vania traversal and powers etc.

The one thing I don't get, however, is how a game this simple looking has a 30 FPS 'quality' and a very aliased 60 FPS 'performance' mode on the current gen, when similar games like Lost Crown run at 4K/120 fps without breaking a sweat.

Sounds like I need to play this game first, before I play Ori or Ori 2. Because the African theme is what's speaking to me the most.

Playing it right now, I'm on Act 3. It's a pretty decent Metroidvania, but the combat is very shitty.
