BOOSTERS’ TAKE

It’s too soon to offer up anything concrete, but, we can confirm the game has a great soundtrack.

So far, the game seems to hit all the highs of a finely-aged action adventure. Don’t let the box cover dissaude you. Crack open the cork and waft the fine notes of metrovania-like side-scrolling, a hint of Zelda 2, and a finish of ripe-for-speedrunning.

Check back later to see if we still feel this way once more Boosters have played it!
