It took me a while to get myself into trying this game. A friend of mine recommended it so much and I finally gave up and bought it from Steam sale. I've played it for couple of hours and I have to admit: this is one of the best games I've played for years. Everything is just executed so well: the combat system is extremely easy to get into yet offers incredible amounts of challenge and variety (some of the combos are just... ridiculously hard - and awesome!), the humor cracks me up every time, the challenges/jump puzzles are complex yet does not require godlike reflexes to complete (just a little patience and planning) and the levels are exceptionally well crafted and varied. Even though I am not a fan of the graphical presentation nor the music (which I ended up muting during my first playing session - it's not bad in any way, but I just can't stand it), they serve their purpose quite well.

I cannot praise this game enough. If you have any love for metroidvania style games, buy it! If you don't, buy it anyway, you'll probably end up liking it anyway. =)
