This game is just great. All the tiny little details that the developer put in really add to the experience. The fact that your character is drawn above the water if you have the boots of flight equipped was a very pleasant surprise to see.
This is an amazing game. Although the story is a bit simple, it is still engaging. The gameplay is stellar with varied weapons, enemies, and landscapes, with interesting platforming segments, myriad secrets, and challenging bosses that are hard enough that you have to strategize and try a number of times, but not so challenging that you have to grind for hours to get to the right strength to beat them. The minigames are both fun and rewarding, and the achievements are just at the right level where I wanteds to try to get them all (except the platinum ones), but I didn't complete them all within a single hour.
