As a huge Kongregate fan from back in the day, I’m so glad they published this first game from Cuddle Monster. This is a solid, very tight, platform shooter. The soundtrack keeps you motivated to return after each death from a stray enemy shot. To be fair, there is a lot going on at any given time but each stage has a niche or pattern that once determined gives you the same satisfaction as games like Celeste. The stage and boss variety are great and the additional challenges (I’m looking at you “no shots fired”) keep the replay value. I’ve experienced lag/stuttering in handheld mode on the switch port less than a handful of times, which may be a dealbreaker for some. However I found this game is well worth the price tag on either steam or switch.
