It's fun enough for an hour or two, but I found it didn't really tutorialize or otherwise teach about the game very well beyond the most basic controls. We're left in the dark on stamina mechanics, how to change characters (genuinely no clue even after poring through the menus), etc. Even the trademark keyboard mashing faces surprisingly lengthy delays after attacks, and using the special attack requires either taking your hand off the keyboard (to shake the mouse) or hitting *both* Ctrl keys (my pinkies aren't up to the task).
Still, I can't say it's *bad*. There's sauce here. A lot of effort clearly went into it and, again, I had fun for an hour or two. I just don't feel terribly compelled to revisit or go for hard modes. For the price, especially on sale, I don't regret it.

The actual gameplay does not match the trailer. I don't know if it's a controller issue or what, but saying you have full controller support but then not having comparable movesets with KB+M seems kinda like a cop out. I love Poncle's other stuff but this is an incredible misstep.

Fun little something for in-between.
There is more finesse necessary than expectected, to beat all the maps. Also not all characters are "created equal", meaning there are some that make the game pretty easy while others might be very interesting but also very difficult to play effective.
