Redo! is a short metroidvania in a post-apocalyptic world about some girl trying to find other living people, I guess.
I was very quickly thrown off by this game failing to do just about everything. When I think metroidvanias, I think platforming and combat. So I want either good platforming, or good combat, and preferrably both. And this has neither. The character's jump is, quite realistic, honestly. It's delayed, and feels like a static little hop that can barely cross gaps. Very unpleasant to use. Similarly, the combat is very slow. You move into enemies as you attack, and can't move right after an attack, so it's really awkward to hit anyone that takes more than a couple of hits. And because the map design is bad too, you can go what I assume is the wrong way immediately and up against really strong enemies. There's also no map. Yet the game starts you with a quest of where to go, a place your character supposedly knows, but you don't.
So, really, I don't understand what I'm doing this game, and how it's rated as high as it is, even though it's not rated very high. Even for 2019 standards, this is abysmal. Don't play this. Play just about any other metroidvania, not this. Maybe the creator wanted to go for a more realistic feel, but you have to put fun first, and this ain't it.
