Another rigid platformer in which you’re relentlessly harassed from all sides by monsters that are impossible to avoid. However, it took me a while to realise there’s a subtlety: the coloured vials you collect grant you various powers (space bar) ranging from throwing fireballs to healing…
Despite that, the insane difficulty and the imprecise character controls wore down my patience.
Note: The second player will control the little bird summoned by the hero (once the necessary ingredients are gathered).
In a similar style: Rogue Legacy (2013).
