What can i say, this game has a charm, movement is feature rich and every move has a nice drawn sprite for it, which makes character an eye candy. That alone makes you want to play more.
I do like puzzles, roaming around and backtracking stuff; so far so good, maybe there be more. Pretty solid demo.
Cheat engine saves time, cheat engine saves live. It is one of those games where everything and their mother is stored as double precision floats - no wonder it lags occasionally even when there is nothing going on at all.
The game is not even that hard - you just have to play it for some time, memorize patterns, layouts and newb traps.
Even if you think you are good with performing repetitive actions, game still will surprise you sometimes -
not clear why momentum is not preserving sometimes,
vertical speed is lost when fading in from "backstep",
you very often got hit during animation transitions,
interactables - ladders and doors will get in a way if you fight there,
sometimes not clear how to grab edge or dive kick into tight opening,
make habit to crouch during level transitions to reduce chances being hit during fade time,
you can get hit outside screen,
camera not updating unless character is landed/in walking state,
there are cases when you have to navigate offscreen, it is all minuscule but adds up, and then you just launch cheat engine
(and be damn right about it).
Game has this 'prince of persia' vibe - even changing direction is slow, so you take your time in taking position and only then engage according to some pattern. Brawling is not very good there.
Also take extra steps before jumping into water - 'statistically' that bone fish will almost always hit you before you even land and could take some actions, thanks to sluggish movement, and dunno if it is possible to change direction while falling (at least when it matter).
Your main weapon is slide (not counting sprays), that knife is not really cutting very far.
Moves i wish i knew earlier - backflip is actually let you jump higher, actually figured that quite fast,
hold forward + up + attack does leap attack, turned out to be second most used move.
There is also forward + backstep (space bar), but that is pretty useless.
