Wayforward pricing themselves out of existence.

[TooshFatoosh]

Both games for $30 is the max I'd be willing to pay. Here comes Wayforward again practicing borderline scamming on the audience. Time for leadership at the company to do their workers a favor by stepping down and getting out of the indie scene. They'd be better suited creating predatory mobile game monetization. $50 for less than 5 hours is just gross, and mobile publishers love themselves some gross business practices.

Buy this instead to scratch that action platformer itch.

Do you really think it's Wayforward who sets the price for these games and not Boss Team Games who are the actual publisher?

The pricing is definitely a Wayforward decision as well. They price all of their games believing they can get away with Nintendo-like prices.

Is such a freaking shame, the concept of the game and the quality of the titles is wonderful; saddest thing is that they could support this for a very long time, but as it is, the price is going to run the game into the ground. As an end result, I doubt they'll add more games-movies to the game... such a freaking shame, the quality is there, is the pricing model the one that's screwing them over; had they priced each game for 15 each, and with regional pricing, they would be getting a heck of a lot of a different reception than the one they're getting now when it comes to sales.

Game also received practically zero marketing since its announcement. Can only hope they somehow learned from this and by some miracle keep supporting the game with a much more fair price model for developer & consumer alike.

Same for me until recently. 6 months ago, I started getting really into indie platformers and metroidvanias. This YouTuber shows a ton of titles that I never would have come across before:

Where did you get $50 for five hours? It took me around 4-5 hours to beat just Halloween with Michael (although I was actually exploring and looking for all the collectables). There are four characters and two campaigns. Each character gets a different story (text based) in each campaign which gives you 80 levels to play through at a minimum to see everything. That is without factoring in going for the achievements.

You could maybe beat both campaigns with one character each in under five hours if you ignore all the collectables and just go straight for the exit as soon as possible. But some of the levels can get a bit challenging and if you are ignoring collectables, you aren't going to be able to upgrade your character as much which is in turn going to make the game harder.
