Undeniably a visually beautiful game with a charming soundtrack. The gameplay itself is solid. As a normal Metroidvania I'd enjoy this more. I fully admit that the reason I rate this lower than others might is because I don't enjoy time loop mechanics. It ends up just annoying me when stuff is robbed from me. I know that you can save certain skills and new areas open, but it doesn't play into the theme of "growth" to me, it's just repetitive and unnecessary.
