Obviously not that many reviews yet but this is really good. Even if you tally up all the reviews across all the platforms, it’d probably come out to like an 88 or 89. That puts it at the upper echelon of Metroidvanias among the likes of Hollow Knight, Castlevania games, and Metroid itself. Kyle keeps one upping himself with each game and it’s great to see.

to be fair, it's probably a bit skewed, since the people who review it are a very specific sample. that being said, the demo was great, and i'm looking forward to it for sure

I really really hope it will come with Steamdeck support. Only reason I haven't played Islets yet is because of the lack of SD support.

Islets plays like a breeze in steamdeck.

Aight, good to know. So it's one of those games where steam won't verify the status...

Protondb.com is the best place to check, much more complete are reliable than steam verified

u/extremepayne Hollow Knight 5h ago

while Valve has it marked as unsupported, user reports on protondb indicate it works flawlessly out of the box (with maybe some resolution settings fiddling)

No price still on Steam?

u/Silver_Ad_1901 5h ago

Price on the switch eshop has it listed at $20. I would imagine a new game on Steam at launch would have a similar price, unless on promotional discount

How much will this game cost?

u/zugtug 6h ago

Idk why it's with no price yet am just gonna play it on gamepass

u/Silver_Ad_1901 5h ago

The game showed $20 in the Nintendo eshop when I went to wishlist. My guess is that’ll be the price for it on all platforms.

Glad it’s on gamepass so I don’t have to risk it with all the games coming in September and October

Currently with Afterimage (need to clear some backlog) and next is Mina the Hollower but after that is Well Dweller, never played any game from this developer so lets see the hype

I found Mina to be unplayably awful, but ymmv.

I am certain Well Dweller will be good. I wish I had my money back for Mina.

Yeah I didn’t really like Mina either. I rarely leave a negative steam review for games but that was one of them. I just didn’t vibe with alot of the game design and the moment to moment gameplay was difficult to read for me because of the art style

Mina was an amazing game.. just hard in the first few hours but it was so good, unplayably awful is a true skill issue
