That game looks awesome. It does quite some things correctly that are pet peeves for me in other games.

- Walk ramp up, allowing for precision placement
- Speaking of ramps, ramps work!
- No attack sound which will make you jump out of a window after a while
- You can attack above and below you
- Very generous hit box on your weapon
- Not that it works for every game but I like that everything dies in one or two hits in this game, it keeps the speed up.
- You can attack while climbing, jumping and ducking - and it's not awkward as all heck. In fact it looks like you can switch stance mid-swing.
- Weapon pickups are not forced on you, its always your choice to pick them up.
- You can destroy projectiles!

9/10 action platformer. It'd be a perfect 10 for me if it had more secrets.

Heck, taking some learnings from this game, for example Dark Castle can be made a lot more playable.
