A completely crazy metroidvania

📖 Storyline: The terrible King of Nightmares has begun destruction in the village of Subrosa. The prophecy has it that the only hope for the whole world will be a cute little monster belonging to the Mombo race. He is a purple creature with a smile permanently printed on his face, Kizzy, equipped with a gigantic tongue (reminiscent of the most famous big tongue in the history of the rock band "The Rolling Stones" inspired by Mick Jagger's mouth and the tongue of the Indian goddess Kali)

🎮 Gameplay: Basically it's a platformer where you have to help Kizzy overcome all the obstacles. It is immediately clear that the combos, if well calibrated, depending on the variety of enemies, will allow us to jump on them to eliminate them in a limited time. In the first three stages the enemies are basic but from the fourth onwards they start to be different from each other and jumping on them will become complicated, some use stratagems to make it very difficult for you to continue the level, repeating it every time doesn't get boring, in fact it's fun. We will travel through a gigantic interconnected world composed of hundreds of areas, including hidden ones, each of which with multiple challenging enemies. Some chase, some shoot, some fly around and some are extremely dangerous! All this is muffled by Kizzy's very cute cry of joy when the combo is completed! It doesn't get boring because he aims to complete the combo and relive that cry of joy! Added to all this is a long series of collectible items, various NPCs to talk to and a chat to communicate with other guardians of Subrosa, that is, when we are tired of the frenzy we can relax and chat with the guardians of Subrosa who will offer, in a completely original objects and updates so that we can tackle the levels pleasantly, managing to immediately capture us with its bright colors and game mechanics that are reminiscent of Mario Bros with the only difference that it modernizes the classic arcade genre with a fresh, fun, fascinating adventure and pleasant and completely free! I'll tell you... I like it much more than Mario Bros. It also allows you to customize the gameplay with special abilities, unlocking different forms of combos to reach speeds never imagined before!!

🕹️ Controls: The controls are simple, at least for the first levels, given that we can only use the direction arrows and the jump, but things will become much more complicated as soon as the double jump and the stomp are added! We will even be able to play with a controller and/or joypad, otherwise the touchscreen alone provides excellent convenience.

🎨 Graphics: The 2D pixel art level design will captivate us instantly, all the veterans of retro games (remember arcade cabinets? ) will agree with me!
