Reviews
Excelente jogo! Um metroidvania no melhor estilo classico, com uma pegada nostalgica dos jogos de GBA, o que inclusive mais me chamou atenção foi a escolha da moldura de GBA com diversas cores e os coletaveis sendo adesivos colados na moldura. Um jogo com aquela nostalgia de uma viagem de carro para o interior nos anos 90.
joguei o embrião desse jogo há 10 anos e joguei de novo esse ano e continuo impressionado. é uma premissa simples e executada meticulosamente em cada frente: roteiro, música, level design, etc etc etc... cacareco revisitou competentemente uma baita parcela dos tropos de videogame dos quais crescemos nos alimentando... joguei lembrando de megaman x e goofy troop, do snes, além de mil outras coisas até tipo lost vikings (não falo metroid pq não joguei) então gente é isso feliz demais com o videojoguinho dessa turma boa, aproveitem que tá barato e presenteiem outras pessoas etc... beijo

A short but fun little Metroidvania with Gameboy Color graphics. Would love to see a larger and more expanded sequel.
