No checkpoints? I get that there's an element of nostalgia with how this game is presented and developed, but it's still a new game in 2025, how come there are literally no checkpoints in the first level or so? The game is extremely stingy with the health pickups, relegating these to only a couple of statues here and there. You get three hits, and if you run out of those, it's game over, restart all the way back from the beginning of the level. First time this happened, it wasn't as frustrating, but after the second or third try? It becomes extremely annoying. The saddest thing is that everything else is awesome and feels like the developers cared. You get three different characters each with their own distinct abilities and powers, the music and sound effects are fantastic as well, and I adore the game's visuals and how gory it is. It's a really fun game, but with a really, really poor checkpoint system, it should've had lives, or a way to play it with checkpoints, like a "modern" setting or something like that. But as it is? Man... it just becomes pure trial and error.
