"Why do you climb the summit"
"For the struggle"
This short game is very much a love letter to the souls-like genre and very much reminds me why I've come to pick up and love the Dark Souls series and Elden Ring so much.
The game distills much of what makes soulslike work into its simplest elements: the learning, the simple back-and-forth combat, and committing to attacks.
What a joy. I'll gladly look at this game again further down the line to study.
