Will you be checking out Infernax? Thank you so much for supporting click-bait free independent content!
Berserk inspired
I definitely see influences from Faxanadu, one of NES’s best hidden gems.
Thankfully this is on Game Pass. I would have been upset if I paid full price for this. I uninstalled it after an evening. There's just way too many games out there that do what Infernax fails to do. One of the first notable disappointments of 2022.
As one of the people who loved Castlevania 2 on the NES as a kid, I really want this. Will be picking it up, at some point, for sure.
I found a place selling a physical copy of this today, picked it up in a heartbeat because of this. Didn't even realise there was one. Physical forever!!
Hopefully it arrives tomorrow really looking forward to it
How are you double jumping at 4:50 ? I'm at that same dungeon and I'm wondering if I missed an upgrade.
Everyone: Dis is just lerk Castlevania and Link 2!
People who actually played 80's/90's games: literally Faxanadu and Battle of Olympus.
guess i am not used to restricted combat stopped playing pretty quick , love the art but the combat feels bland and boring constantly waiting for enemies to enter a certain position just to press 1 button little boring , good throwback game but lacking the game design to make it fun to play in my opinion
Is there an option to disable the flashing visuals for photosensitive players? If so, how does it fare? Thanks!
This game is so good, it oozes style, and those little cut scenes are just the best. It's like the perfect little pixel platformer, only game that's gotten me to play anything besides Arceus on the switch

Looks really appealing tbh.
If you grew up playing NES platformers and wondered how much better it could be with modern code, you'll enjoy this.
The graphics are true to 8-bit style, controls are very responsive, and colors are very bright.
Classic mode feels like playing a classic nes game. I've had a few deaths but nothing that felt unfair. There are things the game does that make it just a little more tolerable than a true old school game.
I can't wait to get my copy of this.
This game actually reminds me a bit of Faxanadu on the NES, which I also loved.
So glad this game is getting good reviews. I am gonna get physical copy for sure, when it comes out.
I had my eye on this but was about to sleep on it since it looked difficult. Thank you for clearing that up. Games like this one help fill that void konami has neglected by giving us a decent castlevania retro like experience. Great and informative review as always. I feel your channel has the best indie videogame reviews on youtube. Keep up the great work guys. 👍
"An entertaining way to spend the weekend." Too bad it comes out on Monday 😭 Great review btw!
This game sounds and looks amazing! So it’s a love letter to Castlevania and trying to build upon Castlevania 2? I have to try it. I always hoped Castlevania 2 would of been remade when IGA released OoE. Thank you will pick this up!
Is there a new plus game? Replaybility as in Bloodstained 2d?
Infernax is definitely my kind of pixel art platformer😊😊😊
I'll be downloading and enjoying it tomorrow through PC gamepass. Excited to play through it.
I'll definitely be checking out Infernax as it seems right up my alley. A combination of elements from Simon's Quest and The Adventure of Link sounds promising and I look forward to seeing how the choices impact the game and story. I've been in the mood for a game like this and the gore looks like some silly fun as well.
The inclusion of a casual mode also sounds nice because while I am not averse to games that are difficult, I do prefer them to not be overwhelmingly so. Having a mode where I can build up my skills in the game and play it through before taking on a brutally difficult challenge in a harder mode is an appealing feature for me.
What a horrible night to have a curse. intensifies
Looks great, thanks for the video!
a crusader with a bandana, whattttt
I might try this one a little later down the line, provided it works well on Switch of course (although I can't really see why it wouldn't). But it looks fantastic for those who love games that call back to ones of older eras, and accessibility options are always a massive plus, hence why I think I might try this one at some point. And as always, this was another great review.
Love the look of this! I'm all over it!⚔️
I've been anticipating this for 2 years now! Can't wait to play it. Love these style of games.
