Watch it, see if it seems fun and ask for a copy!
Its a difficult game, though it can be easier the less checkpoints you harvest (Shovel Knight style).
Every level is hand crafted and every part feels impactful.
If you want to spread the love after the first 5 copies are given away:

Its a dollar for Valfaris and Slain Back from Hell.
I should mention it comes with a copy of Slain but I the reviews arent great and I have no personal experience with it, however Valfaris is one of the best side scrolling shooter platformers I have ever played.
