OHMYGOD LET'S GOOOOOOO
Everything about the first game was surprisingly amazing: art, story, gameplay, I absolutely cannot wait for the sequel.
I actually didn't get the game when it first came out because, even though I heard a lot of good things about it, it was a rouge-like, and I'm an easily-frustrated player. The idea of an infinite loop game where things just kept getting harder and you had to start over if you died sounded like actual hell to me, so I had decided to skip it. Luckily, I caught some gameplay on twitch at some point and that + all the wonderful reviews I kept seeing about the game gave me the push I needed to finally try it (it helps that it was also on sale at the time, not going to lie), and I'm super glad I did.
The game is hard, yes, but it's also very rewarding? Like, even losing feels like making progress, which is what I like about the game. It's not like those games designed to be frustrating (looking at you, Jump King), it's designed to make you want to keep going after experiencing setbacks. It also helped that the story was so damn interesting I kept wanting to go back to see what new dialogue I'd unlocked. Plus, the voice acting was *chefs kiss* and the soundtrack was also divine (heh). I see why it got so much hype when it first came out, and now I am also super hyped for what comes next!
