What you see is what you get, this is an old school platformer with cute retro graphics, you can get assistance from summons, it's not any deeper than that, I rated it great because I'm into this, so know I am slightly biased.
Old school means NES platformers, so apologies Zoomers, there's no tutorial in here, you're left alone in the battlefield like my dad left for milk 20 years ago.
This is on Early Access so of course it's not very big just yet, if the developer plans on extending it as stated in the FAQ and I quote:
“The full version of Li'l Red is planned to feature much more content compared to the early access version. This will include levels, bosses, as well as extra modes.”
Then at that point it'll be amazing for the niche it's targeting.
Buy only if you're into this, or if you're curious enough, I mean, it's extremely accessible, unlike my dad.
