Smelted Kin
cool idea ruined by some bafflingly awful decisions. Some of the big ones for me are the levels are littered with randomly spawning explosives that seem to exist solely to steal a huge chunk of health, as well as the spawner doors that can only be destroyed waiting for the drone to slowly chip away at it while the physical door that should be in the background is capable of absorbing your shots which can lead to you getting awkwardly boxed in at times.
This game hates you and wants you to lose, with the ease of death you also lose money for permanent upgrades with seems counter-productive where failure should lead to being able to save up for upgrades and ammo to help players suffering constant death instead of draining them so thoroughly to the point of feeling like there’s no chance to ever progress. This feeling is compounded by how much of a guessing game everything feels like, with the map being almost completely useless not marking any landmarks except for a handful of specific doors, not even elevators are marked. I’m only in the second area and feel utterly stumped by only having one clue and having to guess where I can and can’t go while the constant threat of a cheap death is always around the corner, there is falling damage and I have frequently seemingly just fell through invisible pits to my death or had to make a leap of faith due to not being able to see what’s below me.

With no reviews I knew I was gambling when buying this, but with the refund option available it isn’t too much of a risk really unlike the time when I bought red goblin cursed forest.
Unfortunately, this game is just too unintuitive. The controls in particular are atrocious with both gamepad and keyboard controls being an unworkable disaster. This should have used a mouse for aiming and indeed many of the keyboard bindings seem geared towards this style of gameplay but the mouse isn’t used at all outside the main screen. Oh and that reminds me, you can’t properly change keyboard binds once you’ve started playing, you have to quit to the menu and change there. Again, a disaster. The maker of this game seems to be aware of how unintuitive the game is because there are actually written messages indicating what is hidden beyond reach when you reach your typical metroidvania barrier.
