Fatal Adventure First Impressions

Fatal Adventure is a side scrolling RPG platformer. The core gameplay is decent, and the graphics are nice with a fun bright style. The problem is that the horrible controls and input lag hurt the experience. When you push the jump button or attack button it is so delayed and takes getting used to. The other problem I faced with the attack button has a short cooldown. This is a problem because when you face enemies that require more than 1 hit you immediately take damage from that enemy, and there is no real way to avoid it. The damage from the enemies is insanely high with 1 hit taking more than half your health most of the time.

It's a nice little 'choose your adventure' game to spend some cozy time on. My gameplay experience was mostly positive without any major bugs or glitches. It took me about 3 hours to reach one of the endings and I pretty liked the story here. Not sure if I'm ready for another playthrough yet. Although the game has some gameplay mechanics like resources, skills, items. Combined together they just don't work as intended. I didn't really get the point of having these mechanics in such game.
