I stayed up til midnight to start playing this minute one and I’m finally going to bed (it’s 3:30am!) - so much fun and I loved the Symphony of the Night stylings.
I love Metroidvanias however I am not a big Castlevania fan...I know, I'm a little confused. The boss designs look great but the highlight for me was the origami platforms. I can see myself really enjoying this game. To the WishList it goes.
It's... Kinda both? It is linear and level based, but as you get more sub weapons you can go back to previous levels and explore and get permanent power ups.
I'd compare it to the Megaman X or Megaman Zero series. Using gear or weapons you acquire through your playthrough to go back to levels and get more gear and abilities.
It's an Inti game. For me, they are almost always a no-brainer purchase these days. I know I'm going to enjoy them. And this one is like the... SNES version of Curse of the Moon... with the Gal*Gun characters. Interesting choice. Would not have minded an actual SNES-style CotM. Still, a solid game. Together with PLAYISM's metroidvania games (Touhou Luna Nights and Record of Lodoss War: Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth), my go to when I just gotta scratch that 2D exploration off my system. At least, while I wait for Inti to give us the next Gunvolt game. Main series or otherwise (I so want that Mytyl spin-off, I laughed so hard at that "joke" ending).
I have been waiting for this game!! I am so excited. I am waiting for a physical copy though, so I haven't played it yet. Having a difficult time not just buying a digital now, then physical later. Thank you for the video!
I did that. Bought the collectors edition and the digital. It comes out tomorrow for me. Not sure where your at. The collectors edition sold out unfortunately. Limited Run Games usually handles Inticreates north American releases and i bet they'll have a collectors edition as well.
I knew I was buying this day 1. I actually lost track of the release date but thanks on the video and reminding me. Only buy games twice a year, so this is on the back burner until that time comes around.
Thanks for the review Alex! I'm not that familiar with GalGun. However I am a fan of Inti Creates games. Still, from your critique, I feel like "Yeah, I might pick this one up."
This looks pretty tits to me even if it's not in the running for any awards for originality. It looks likely to scratch that "slightly modernized Symphony of the Night clone" itch that Record of Lodoss War did last year. Kinda bummed to hear that there are levels as opposed to one sprawling interconnected map, but it doesn't sound like a deal breaker for me. Thank you for reviewing this one! I've had it on my wishlist for a couple of months now, anticipating its release ever since I randomly encountered a gameplay trailer on RU-vid.
Man I wish I’d watched before buying. Inti creates have disappointed me a lot lately and this is true here. Many were calling it a metroidvania but it is not. It is more updated castlevania original play style. Thanks for the review.
Honestly I love the galgun games and these characters. If this was a full metroidvania game I would have bought it day one but unfortunately like with Koumajou remila scarlet symphony this game isn't worth the high base price.
i got these today and the trophes wood not sink in iwos slaytly desapointed game runs well and plays rely good no gliches apart from the trophes not sinking they pop i can sss them but on my acount nothing no trophe icon for the game nothing
From what i learnt, it got removed for being too inappropriate with it’s lewd art. There’s more info about it from this vid ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uZrl06KneJs.html
Games of this cabala Defo need different difficulties. I recall getting Castlevania Dracula X for the Vita and it was difficult as hell that I couldn’t get past the first level. Annoying too was having two other castlevania locked in the game that I could even play them
