Über das Spiel

Nachdem die Festung Valfaris auf mysteriöse Weise von den galaktischen Karten verschwunden war, ist sie plötzlich im Orbit einer sterbenden Sonne wieder erschienen. Die prachtvolle Zitadelle, die einst ein unabhängiges Paradies war, beherbergt nun eine stets wachsende Finsternis.

Therion, ein furchtloser und stolzer Sohn von Valfaris, kehrt zu seinem Zuhause zurück, um die Wahrheit seines dunklen Schicksals herauszufinden und das geheimnisvolle Böse in seinem Herzen herauszufordern.

  • Schädel im Weltall! Gemetzel im Weltall! Metal im Weltall!
  • Reduziere Gegner mit einer großen Auswahl an brutalen Waffen auf wilde Weise zu Haufen aus Innereien
  • Erkunde auf deinem Weg in die Tiefen der dunklen Welt von Valfaris eine Vielfalt verunreinigter Umgebungen
  • Dominiere reihenweise tödliche Feinde und Bosse, von den manche etwas schräg und manche etwas grotesk sind (und manche auf schräge Weise grotesk)
  • Labe deine Augen an umwerfend atemberaubender Pixel-Kunst des meisterhaften Andrew Gilmour
  • Spüre die Kraft eines seismischen Soundtracks von Curt Victor Bryant, dem Extrem-Metaler und ehemaligen Gitarristen von Celtic Frost
  • Komplett in der Schmiede des Teams hinter dem Kult-Hit „Slain:Back From Hell“ entstanden

I agree with most of the reviewers, in a nutshell:
1. Game could be really fun, BUT
2. I'm dying all the time which simply kills the fun.
So if you've got reflexes like a cat or don't mind playing every bit of the game a hundred times - go for it!

TLDR; I personally dont enjoy it, but if youre into the gameplay the game offers you its a good game. Just not for me.

So I pretty much stopped playing the game at the bugs nest (idk what its called in the game). Its not like the game is hard by being challenging, more like the game is unforgiving. But the controlls are god awfull. You cant really aim and move at the same time while having to dodge or block the enemies attacks. I dont feel like if I beat an area I beat it because I overcame the challenge more I got lucky or discovered a way to cheese my way through the game. But I actually liked the way the game uses its checkpoint system. You can choose to use an Resurrection Idol on certain points in the game to save your progress or you keep them and increase your health. Its a high risk high reward system and I really liked that, even though I think they couldve given the player more health for not saving.
If youre looking for an oldschool 2D Action Plattformer, with unforgiving gameplay, or just hate yourself enough you probably can enjoy the game, but I personally cant enjoy that kind of gameplay. There are some good parts though, like the soundtrack and pixelart. The game looks fucking amazing and kinda takes me back to the time I played simular games on my gameboy advanced.

A lot of fun, but not all the time. The visual design is great, it distracts you from the horrors running at you with reckless abandon. The setting is somewhat cool, I know the sequel ditches the planet as we loop through it once and just leave it. But beyond the aesthetic, I can't personally recommend it. I think that some parts of the game where they throw insta-kills at you are not well paced. Some times challenges are just meant to be hectic, but on the other hand, that doesn't excuse poor game design. More of a gripe/nitpick than a real critique of the difficulty. With no accessibility options, I have to give it close to a 7/10.

Rage inducing trash mechanics. Every enemy is positioned purposefully 1 pixel away from your hit range at all times, while they can hit you even without touching you in certain cases. I honestly don't understand why would you spend so much money, time and effort to create something that is just there to be annoying. Couldn't the developers find something better to do with their time? Should've got it at a discount smh...

Absolutely fantastic game, I had a blast through the whole thing and couldn't put it down until I was finished!
Incredible visuals that look like Warhammer 40k and HR Giger had a lovechild
A slightly thin story that's enough to keep you going through though.
Lots and lots of great bossfights with fun and challenging levels in between that (mostly) don't overstay their welcome.
The music is a banger and keeps you pumped through the whole game.
Controls are pretty tight, the parrying mechanic is quite fun once you learn how to use it, but I'd definitely recommend using a controller as this game feels made for using a D-Pad.
all in all, 10/10 going FULL METAL next

Its hard to say if its great or only good.
Gameplay would be insanely godlike only if controls would be less clunky and aiming with mouse would be waaaay better than actual controls, which are highly recommended to be set by player, otherwise its really hard to wrap them around a head.

I am not gonna lie that I had to spend around 1.5 hour just to get used to weird controls, after that this game becomes so much better.

Soundtrack is insane, like iron maiden and black sabbath would have baby.

Visuals are very unique and have really special feeling, main character looks great his ship, animations are great for this kind of game with pixel graphics.

Very nostalgic comeback to Contra, i remember good old days when i was younger.
(it is also very similar to games like Noita, Hell Yeah)

I could risk a statement that this game is as based as Dead Cells, TBoIsaac, LaMulana, Hollow Knight, Hades, CoTDG, Celeste, Blasphemous, Enter the gungeon, Katana zero,hotline miami, and maybe cuphead, you may not agree but this is only mine very subjective opinion which might be very wrong xD

Game wont choke even on 11yo PC or any laptop from 2008 or even older could run it.

Overall i would absolutely recommend getting this (very strong 8.5/10) game on discount or somewhere else ;p

Excellent little indie game that has just the right amount of mechanics to keep you engaged throughout its compact 5-8 hours of playtime. The different systems in the game are just detailed enough to make you think, without being unnecessarily complicated. Each level constantly puts you in new situations with new little gimmicks or just new enemy types. Most of the weapons are really fun to use and while the upgrade system forces you to commit to a certain loadout, you also have the chance to diversify that again later. The biggest draw at first for most people is probably the soundtrack, which I also loved. Really nothing I can complain about.

I wanted to like this, but the game threw way too much at me too quickly and didn't communicate a proper way to fight anything. There's an emphasis on using the sword to gain energy so you can use your other weapon or shield, so I basically never used the pistol/primary and used the sword, but got too overwhelmed to even use the gun the uses up the energy.

The 8 directional aiming just doesn't work when enemies don't line up or the level design coaxes you into the right positions. Maybe i'm spoiled after having played Metroid Dread, but full analogue 360 degree aiming is a MUST for a game like this.

The level and game design on this game are really good. I love how instead of being just one level to the next, everything is connected. Boss fights are pretty cool as well. And not to mention the soundtrack.
Then came a bland story and a very punishing gameplay that I could not get past. This game is not supposed to be a soulslike, so why does it feel like one? Even the game acknowledges this by giving you checkpoints every 10 steps. It knows that you'll die so frequently that in my opinion is just not fair. I would have had enjoyed this game much much more if at least the regular enemies weren't so punishing.

I have mixed feelings about this one because it does a lot of things well, but others need polishing in my opinion. Of course if you enjoy challenges you'll love this game. But for me, a 7/10 just doesn't justify it.

So at first this will be compared to Contra, but it just comes off.... sloppy? Lots happening on the screen, quick-respawning enemies. The uneven terrain but only being able to shoot in 6 directions just feels odd. They added a verticality element to the world, but kept the 6-way shooting of Contra and it leaves you with an off feeling.

+Great art direction and soundtrack.
+Headbanging.
+Weapon system basically lets you choose whether to focus on gun or melee, whether you prefer running & gunning or pretending you're just playing a metroidvania, as well as having an limited resource destroyer that melt bosses quite nicely.
+Melee weapons feel great to use, unlike a lot of games they're not too slow and have great range/damage to let you deal with most enemies.
-Eight-way aiming makes trying to hit some enemies a pain in the arse depending on where you're positioned, and makes me vastly prefer just sticking with melee.
-For a 2D platformer, the lack of movement mechanics is really crap.
-Lots of weapons feel basically the same. I've not noticed any difference between the two swords and Hellwraith/EoD so I just stuck to defaults.
-Enemy placement makes some sequences a bit obnoxious to repeat, and eventually you feel like you're just racing from checkpoint to checkpoint instead of simply enjoying the levels for what they are.

Solid game with beautiful art and music, the game is good but honestly could've been a lot better.
The main problem I had with this game is the controls, they aren't very responsive and often have a small delay on them which causes you to mess up all the time, whether it be aiming or you falling off a rope in a cliff and immediately dying, speaking of falling, this game has a lot of parkour, it's good but honestly with these controls they can be very painful if not downright frustrating at times.

The checkpoint system in this game is quite interesting but I honestly don't know what to think about it, this is the way it works: you can find respawn tokens (I forgot their names) randomly on the map, usually you can find one before every checkpoint and occasionally one or two per level in secret areas, you gotta manually activate every checkpoint, thing is, you lose your respawn tokens then, if you decide to keep them you get more health and energy but obviously you have to skip a checkpoint then, which wouldn't be too bad of a system normally, thing is that this game is extremely punishing and you die all the time (especially with the controls this game has), and on top of that checkpoints can be quite far apart at times.
So basically it's not worth to ever skip checkpoints unless you already have played the game (multiple times) before and want to challenge yourself or if you know what is already up ahead.

All in all, amazing art, great music but the level design and controls are quite often very frustrating, it is still a good game but man it could've been so much better.

Valfaris heavily reminds me of a long time ago when I played Contra III: The Alien Wars.

Just like back in the day and dying repeatedly and raging on the Contra series, I died repeatedly and raged on Valfaris.

This game isn't broken by any means, so I'll get through the good things first:
A. This game has a beautiful pixel art style (Though some enemies felt uninspired and boring).
B. The glorious metal soundtrack. The music really fits the theme of the game and the carnage.

BUT, there are a couple of glaring faults:
A. The combat is not really fun, more frustrating. The more you get through the game, the more it's frustrating nature reveals itself, things like: endlessly spawning enemies, endlessly spawning enemies, endlessly spawning enemies... you get it. There are also enemies that require you to wait for them to attack, so you could parry them, thus stunning them and leaving themselves open to damage, only the problem is that the timing for the parry is so weird (it's hard to explain, but you almost have to start parrying during the wind up, but not the actual attack). And much much more.
B. The bosses. There are loads of them, some have a single gimmick to them, some are just plain pushovers, some are just hard due to them being badly designed (Some examples: a boss where you can only use melee attacks to hurt him, he practically only has 2 attacks, one you have to duck under, the other you have to jump over, easy right? Just that the wind up is almost identical of both attacks. Another example: A boss which virtually has 2 attacks, 1. A simple sniper shot 2. He turns into a toxic cloud and moves to your location. Attack 1 is easy to dodge, if he only does those, it's easy to win, you just have to take down his huge health pool. If he adds in attack 2, he'll start doing it constantly, which will drag out the fight to half an hour.)

This is a really cool 2D side-scroller. IMO it has some visual clarity problems, and I occasionally had issues with giving multiple inputs simultaneously with my keyboard (e.g. there's a mech you can control - if you are moving, you cannot aim down, but you CAN aim up, which feels like it must be an error rather than an intentional design decision), but it is so fucking cool man. Damn. I wish we could find out more about the world, though.

As for difficulty, it's not too tough. Certainly easier than something like Dark Souls or Dead Cells, for example. I think an experienced gamer will be able to knock this out in 5-8 hours.

I had love-hate relationship with this game and after 4 or so hours i uninstalled it completely.
For me this game felt like eternal struggle, it started hard but manageable, but then its just getting harder and harder. Every step was a pain, i paid for every meter of enemy soil with anger and frustration. I like harder games (for example Souls series) but i felt like everything here was placed to kill you cheap and annoy you. You remember archers in Anor Londo? Valfaris felt like Archers: the game.
Even easy enemies (and their placement or movement patterns) have ways to ruin your day, even easy boss can kill you instantly and you feel like you didnt deserve this. And i feel platforming elements are even worse. Cheap death everywhere.
I didnt get what i hoped for with this game, and just didnt enjoy what i got.
And thats a shame because i love metal music and pixel art, i really dig aescethics from 90s, and this is like Warhammer 40k and Doom and Slayer had a baby. Whats not to love here, right? The greater my disappointment. And im not even a bad player, i played a lot of hard games, that needed patience and practice. But this is just too much. So if it annoys me, what about normal/casual players? Its definitely not a game for them.
Valfaris is better that Slain (which was harder and more clunky) so i see progress, but it still needs improvements- difficulty levels maybe?
Id really like to recommend it, but i cant. Too frustrating to be enjoyable.

Basically just a trash game. I tried to like it, the art and sound are both pretty decent but the game feels awful to play and utilizes terrible design. Encounters with infinite enemies. Bad visual fidelity. Little to no feedback. Gear has no detailed information.

Feels like the game was designed by an art student who doesn't play games.

[X] Got this on my humblebundle

Just so you know Valfaris is a one-way journey, its divided in levels and IT IS NOT a metroidvania. Shoot, shoot, slash, slash and kill through whatever the hell that triggered Valfaris infernal infestation of monsters and soldiers.

Pros
+Variety of weapons
+Great background and character design
+Some great challenging bosses , eventually you're able to beat them.

Cons
-Can't respec weapons.
-Story felt really weak, especially the ending --- the whole journey felt kinda pointless. Valfaris 2 I guess?
- The final boss felt mediocre at best in comparison to the other bosses. Or maybe I just had the right maxed weapons or something.

Took me about 7hrs to beat the first run.

It's been years since I've played a Contra style 2d action platformer, and this one didn't disappoint. Sometimes we just want to shoot stuff like a madman without the exploration aspects of the super popular Metroid Vania genre.

The aesthetics are great, loved the detailed backgrounds, enemy designs, the neat sound effects that pack a powerful punch... Didn't care much about the main hero being a heavy metal band frontman, but I can live with that. The story seems interesting but I felt there wasn't enough explanation, or maybe I just skipped by accident, lol.

Difficulty is okay, nothing too hard. This game has a checkpoint mechanic where you choose to activate them or not, if you skip them you will have a longer health bar and also more points to trade for weapon upgrades at the end of each chapter, at the expense of redoing a larger section of the level if you die.
I purposely skipped some checkpoints for the benefits (and had to suffer memorizing longer parts of the level if I died), but now having cleared the game, I feel it would not make much of a difference if I had taken every checkpoint. So all in all, a forgiving game, unlike most negative reviews here would make you believe.

Really recommended, specially if you are a player of the 90s gaming era who experienced Contra Hard Corps, Alien Soldier, Mega Turrican etc.

Steam really needs to add a neutral recommendation. Valfaris is very good, but very unfair sometimes. For example : sometimes, without any warning, some boss will explode upon dying, killing you if you're too near. Another example is near the end of the game, there is a secret area but you can't access it if you missed another secret area in another level. If can't go back, so you have to restart the whole game to get this secret. Also, the final boss is just very BAD. Actually, that's two bosses because when you kill the first one, another appear, but the game doesn't save, nor gives you full health, so good luck. I'd still say that I had fun playing the game (it's very hard) even if it was frustrating at moments. Also, the pixel art is just incredible, just like in Slain.

I think that sorta highlights how the difficulty ramps up in this game. The controls are tight, difficult because it's old-school 8 directional, but the parry system is responsive and satisfying. Great game, highly recommend it. To make your life easier - don't spread your upgrades across multiple weapons on your first play through. Learn the parry timings.

When I first played this game 2yrs ago I gave up in anger thinking it was poorly designed and too hard. This time I gave it a fair chance and really put in some effort and before I knew it, I had spent hours just trying to push that little bit further into the game.

This is definitely nothing like Celeste or Hollow Knight with their perfectly tweaked movement systems, but if you can get past the initial hurdle of what seems like stiff controls and the difficulty curve, you'll find this an excellent 2D platformer that's up there with the best. Visually impressive and deeply rewarding gameplay.

a run and gun action game with a crude art style and some heavy tunes; the game features a neat checkpoint system thats high risk, high reward, take the checkpoint to save yourself some running back or save the rune to keep health or wait till the end of a stage to get more blood metal?

Stunning visuals, kick-ass music and extremely satisfying combat. Nice variety of weaponry that all feel impactful and serve a purpose. The game has a save token system where you can use tokens to activate checkpoints or save them to have more health / energy and unlock additional weapon upgrade points. It acts as a nice little risk and reward mechanic.

Even after finishing the game 100% I kept coming back to it to experiment with all the different weapons. The game is simply a joy to play.

'Almost' a masterpiece.

Game itself is hard. Really hard. Especially the final boss. Literally, if you think Hollow knights' 'real' final boss is hard, give this guy a chance.

Soundtracks, sound effects are awesome. Heavy metal lovers like myself will definetely enjoy them.

Gothic, dark, gruesome world, challenging gameplay, weapons, enemies all are great. All fits into the metroidvania style, perfectly.

Boss designs are so damn cool. There are like 20 bosses, each feels different and requires variety of tactics to beat em'.

But there are some bosses that are for sure unnecessary, 'Just put there to fill the place' type. f.e: Kyvok... Why?

Resurrection idol capacitity increases after defeating bosses. Why? You don't even need more than 6-7. Maybe they could've given us a chance to increase Health or Energy. I dunno.

Whatever. Game is great. I loved it.

This game kicked my ass, in both sense of the word. It's a fantastic arcade side-scroller run-and-gun, and it's brutally difficult. Well, okay, I am genuinely terrible at this sort of game -- for example, I didn't make it very far into Cuphead, Valfaris is still far more manageable for a scrub like me -- but I'd like to think that this one is still particularly challenging... I hope. But this only meant that it was all the more satisfying to finally git gud and blast those bosses into smithereens.

It's legitimately baffling that hardly anyone talks about this game or gives it much attention (or at least it seems that way to me) because it's just really that damn good.

It plays well, there's a cool variety of weapons, the visuals and music are amazing as always, and every complaint I had about Slain, such as the generic level design and repetitive enemies, has been fixed in this one, with far more varied encounters and verticality in level design. The dialogue is also remarkably less cringy than Slain, not that you should care at all, but yeah.

If you like Contra, Cuphead, Metal Slug, or Gunstar Heroes... just get this game already.

Great game. I wasn't expecting too much as all these metroidvania are kinda the same with some small distinctions, yet this game was great! Addictive game play and small RPG elements to keep it interesting. In other words, if you get tired of a gun you acquired, you can change it up or upgrade it. The fact that when you get a new weapon, the main character head bangs to metal.......that's awesome:)

One of the best side-scrolling action games I know, a clear improvement over Slain: Back From Hell in all areas. The level design is extremely inventive, the same concepts rarely repeat. Enemy design is also fantastic with a variety of stylish people and things to kill. The boss design stands out, some of this stuff has never been seen before, but even when there's a boss that you thought you might recognize from something like Contra, there will be new aspects added that you didn't expect.

Controls might feel a bit confusing at first but they tight, just give it some time. The parrying timing also takes a lot of getting used to, but you'll have an advantage if you've played Slain.

That last boss, though. What an asshole. I finished the game with 329 deaths, 300 of which were just to that guy.

Still, I'm hoping for a sequel.

Slain's younger brother is the better game in every way. While I like Slain, I found Valfaris to be a huge upgrade in both gameplay and presentation. The level design is more interesting, the backgrounds are amazing, the character is cooler, and the metal soundtrack is at least equal, if not better than Slain's.

Shooting: Valfaris introduces ranged weapons, and they completely change the tempo of the game. The gun options all feel very different and each one is useful in some way. Different players are sure to gravitate toward different weapons. One or two seem to stand out to me as obviously best, but I've read opinions from others that differed from my own, so there's clearly room for different playstyles here.

Melee: Slain might take the edge over Valfaris on this category in terms of technical execution, but the more mobile melee attacks in Valfaris are satisfying in their own right and fit the faster speed of the game well. Melee attacks also replenish your energy for the big guns, so they're a good fit into the gameplay loop.
Platforming: This is where Valfaris stands head and shoulders over Slain. There's a hanging mechanic reminiscent of Contra that allows for a lot of unique and interesting platforming sequences. There's also climbing (which, for perhaps the first time in memory, is actually better than spamming jump against the climbable surface). Both of these new movement mechanics are used in some boss fights to good effect.

Atmosphere: Valfaris is dripping with 'tude. The dialogue is still campy, but it's less clumsy than Slain's, and there are some bits where Therion's lines break through from cheesy to genuinely cool. The general brutality and mayhem is on par with Slain's, or maybe even greater, and molded to fit the sci-fantasy style to great success.

Valfaris is probably my favorite game this year.

Solid game. It improves on the formula set by previous game Slain: Back From Hell.

I preferred the areas in Slain but the new mechanics in this game make this game stand out more.

I hope the devs will tackle a slightly longer game with their next release.

If you guys played Slain and enjoy the challenge, then you are in for another wild one when playing this. Valfaris has 3 weapons. A pistol, a sword, and a special weapon. Unlike Slain where you have to block, you use a shield instead in this game. You can parry them just like in Slain as well, keep noted using shield or using special weapons waste your mana, but you can obtain them more easier in the game. Interestingly, this game has shown some connections with Slain as well. There will be alot of enemies and as well as challenging bosses. Of course just like Slain, this also has heavy metal.

It is also difficult as well, so be prepared whats coming.

I both love and hate this game on principle.

I have beaten Contra III on Hard a few times in my life.

This game feels like a love letter to Contra in which it calls Contra frigid b**ch halfway through and then says he's gonna go bang Castlevania instead. Or something. The boss fights are....fair. A little BS at first but then you get the pattern down and they're fun. And then they start exploding into things that will actually kill you after you've beaten them which is quite possibly the most infuriatingly interesting design decision I've ever seen in a game. My thumbs hurt. My wrists hurt. My HANDS hurt. I'm not sure if that's from the game or if my age is showing or both. The soundtrack is great, and the weapons are mostly fun and satisfying to use.

Honestly, Steel Mantis, f**k you. But also thanks for making this game. I feel strange and confused. I'm gonna go lie down.

Heavy metal 2D platforming shooter.
It's a game that starts off promising with its visuals and soundtrack, but after a while it gets a bit obnoxious and tedious.

The overall gameplay just feels like a very basic action platformer with a high difficulty. The only unique thing I found interesting regarding it is the checkpoint system that rewards you for not activating checkpoints.
The further you progress the game, the difficulty just starts to get annoying in a trial & error kind of way due to many instant-death moments. I also couldn't even tell how much game was left until mini-bosses that I've fought before started appearing.

The pixel art is great without a doubt, however often times the screen looks so cluttered to the point where you can't tell what a platform is.
The metal soundtrack's great, but you can't really hear it through all the action without turning down the sound effects in the options settings.

The game takes around 5-6 hours and it's a very linear game.
The only replay value is the New Game +, which lets you keep upgraded equipment and increases the difficulty of the completed save file.
It plays well enough, but there was really nothing keeping my interest all the way to the very end. $25 is way too much for this.

This game looks amazing, one of the few games I really enjoyed playing with scanlines (type1) turned on.

Soundtrack absolutely rules, if you love metal like I do. There were so many times where I had to stop playing just for a moment to jam out.

It was a difficult game, but not in a particularly annoying way. If I ever died for a reason I thought was bogus, it seemed clear that the devs intended for me to feel that way, so I couldn't help but laugh with them.

Even dying 10+ times on a boss, I never felt bored or genuinely aggravated, just having fun and that made me motivated to press on.

10/10, get it.

YES! A wonderful, old-school 2D action and platforming game. The graphics are amazing, reminiscent of Donkey Kong Country, with sprites rendered from high-res 3D models - though a lot more metal, obviously.
Someone wrote a review saying it was a Metroidvania, but it really isn't and one should not expect anything of the sort. It's story driven and strictly linear. There are secrets to find, however, but you will never come to a section where you are missing necessary equipment to progress. There's also no backtracking at all.
The idea of you being able to skip save-point and get a permanent health increase instead is neat, though I felt the game was balanced around not having much extra health. The balance seems pretty fair, however. You do die quickly, but all attacks are telegraphed well and if you take the time to watch out for what the enemies are doing, you will never be taken by surprise.
The same goes for the bosses. They never seemed unfair, never using attacks you can not avoid. Once you get to know them, some can be real pushovers.
Oh, and the weapons are amazing. At the beginning I was under the impression that upgrading them didn't do much, but that was a mistake on my part. Most weapons have four upgrade levels and I can recommend not upgrading all of them to the second level right away, but instead saving some of your point to get the ones you like to level three and beyond. There's a significant difference once weapons go level three and higher and it pays of. The variety is also there, with all the weapons feeling distinct and pretty creative.
I can wholeheartedly recommend this title, even at full price!

This game was super fun, also quite a challenge for me but I am bad so take that however you want lol. It plays alot like a side scrolling contra game imho. The game did what I felt like it would and gave me a fun ride through its winding passageways full of enemies. The whole game has a great flow to it and I never wanted to put the remote down and stop playing till I beat it. The soundtrack is really nice too. This games a work of art in general with the spritework done. And I love the feel and environment of the game as well. Its all very aesthetically unique and well done. Full metal mode is alot harder so if you are into the challenge of games like this, after you beat it once, give it a second go.

Practically a heavy metal album brought to life, though with more muted music than expected. The visuals are noisy making it difficult to decipher where platforms end and there are some wonky hit boxes at times, while the upgrade system is somewhere between crappy and genius, what with it having an interesting risk/reward system, but at the same time also one that prevents experimentation. That might sound disastrous, but encounters are hectic and varied, each making good use of a combination of memorization, quick reflexes and adaptive executions.

It's elegantly flawed, but elegant none the less.

While I do recommend this game, that recommendation comes with a warning.

It is tough.

Expect to die over and over again if you (like me) aren't so hot at pattern recognition.

Apart from that, another issue which contributed to my longer than average playtime is the fact that only at a later part of the game did I found out that there are checkpoints where those green crystals can be traded for blood metal which can be used to upgrade weapons. Before that, I was struggling with weapons which were way too weak for the level I was at.

After weeks of attempts to defeat the final bosses (Kyvok & Hydravok), I came to the realization that the best weapons for this encounter are:
1) Vroll's Sidearm for attacking at range
2) Jelly Whip or The Bastard for close combat

Unsurprisingly, the weapons above should ideally be fully upgraded before that final fight

As tough as this game was to play (and survive in), I'm still looking forward to future games from Steel Mantis, or whatever they decide to call themselves in the future.

Incredible pixel art alongside brutal metal music will transport you into a world of violence not unlike the warhammer 40k universe, presenting a wide variety toys to fuel your killing rampage. The challenging gameplay will reward the risks you take during figths, giving the player the potential to master their own way of addressing problems while figuring out their favorite weapons.

This is the platformer that actually delivers on the gameplay experience that's advertised. Levels are fairly designed and the game has an excellent balance between a strong character that shreds through enemies and facing threatening situations.

9/10 gameplay
8/10 controls
4/10 music

If the music angle is bringing you to the table for this game, prepare to be underwhelmed. Some tracks are okay but the majority of this seems to be small riffs that a 14 year old could write in tandem with ezdrummer. Some of the tracks were so underwhelming and boring that i turned off the music because it was plain annoying. It's really my only complaint with this game.

3.) Repeat until you get to a boss. Fight boss for several tries until you know every attack of him and you eventually beat him.

To be honest this game is 10/10 as for me.

All the mechanics of old school platformer are released here.
It is not boring to fight the bosses or go through the level you can't pass again and again, because it is not so monotone.
Everything is depends on your skill.
In this game you will find a lot of weapons but usually you will use only few types not more.
I don't know what do you wait from a platformer of this kind but everything you wait is present here.
Don't lose your chance to take a part in a real challenge.
Good luck!

Other games play - Valfaris kill


If you pick up this game maybe you'll feel like you are Fighting The World, but don't be afraid of that because Therion is a true Defender of Valfaris and a proud Brother Of Metal. With his Sword In The Wind, he will Carry On no matter what happens and Kill With Power anyone who
stands in his way like a Dark Avenger promoting lots of Violence And Bloodshed. And if it gets to that point, he'll be ready to Die For Metal, Die With Honor because he has a Heart Of Steel. Then the Gates Of Valhalla will open for him, echoing a beautiful Battle Hymn.

Personally, I had a delight spilling the Blood Of My Enemies and feeling the Metal Daze of this game.

Fantastic game. My goty 2019 hands down. I don't remember the last time I played through a game a 2nd time straight away when a harder difficulty mode was unlocked for completing the game. Great soundtrack to. The sound effects add to the game as well. Just a great job all around. Shoutout to ManvsGame for turning me onto this game.

Valfaris is a savagery of bleeding pixels, gore and heavy metal. This outrageous mix makes for an amazing action platformer which I wholeheartedly recommend despite its dated aim mechanics.

Pros:
+ Brilliant aesthetic design
+ Fast paced and visceral action
+ Fantastic heavy metal soundtrack
+ Gore

Cons:
– Dated aiming mechanics
– Most bosses explode on death
