Cool little metroidvania. Jumping and shooting are tight and crunchy (which is a weird thing to type, but that's how it feels), you have various characters with differing weapons and abilities you can use, you can find simple upgrades and additional specials for each character, and there are quite a few secrets to find. If you've played a metroidvania before you'll know the drill, you tend to explore a modest-sized map, find a mission critical item, and then move onto the next area, but you can come and go between areas when you like, usually to find upgrades allowing you to access things you couldn't access before. Getting lost or forgetting where to go next isn't a problem in this game. There are also two endings, the latter demanding full exploration.

There's some welcome variety in a few areas, controlling a stompy mech, or a submarine with slow missiles, a few bosses that rely more on problem solving than "gitting good", oh and the soundtrack is rockin'. I mean, it slaps. Good fun, good value, do it!
