Ratings and reviews

Honestly, I wouldn't buy it without a controller. There's no fixed joystick option. It is really difficult to get used to not being able to touch a certain area of the screen and subconsciously know which direction you're going to go. I usually prefer a dynamic joystick, but not when dodging is so critical and you dash by swiping. It feels like you're fighting the control scheme more than the enemies.

Needs a static/dynamic joystick option. Spikes on ground so small you can barely see. Dash mechanic conflicts with the dynamic joystick. Play for 7 or 8 minutes and it feels like you just did thumb day at the gym for 3 hours. Just to make no progress whatsoever. Anytime you want to make a quick adjustment to your position in order to dodge you end up dashing instead. Flings you right into enemies or spikes. The right hand buttons are way too small. blast of instead of smashing and whatnot

I may rate higher if I play it more, but I'm half tempted to refund it. The controls are very flighty. If you dodge one thing, it's easy to plow right into another projectile and take damage anyway. I didn't know it was a console game before, but I may end up refunding this and downloading it on console. I'm even playing with a controller and the controls with it aren't responsive enough for a game with such crazy movement mechanics.
