I admit, I haven't played it, but the gameplay videos don't exactly inspire confidence.

The fuck is wrong with you, game is fucking gorgeous

But actually, they don't use the mobility that was -clearly- designed for a more open world as well as they should. The areas are often so linear that you rarely ever fly at all.

It was still a fun game, though.

How would you classify it? RPG platformer? Open world platformer? Metroidvania?

the game is prettier than it is fun, IMO. it was a solid adventure/platfomer but nothing special, IMO.

Open world platformer fits closest, though there are deliberate levels, bosses, and checkpoints. Plenty of optional exploration for upgrades and easter eggs, though it's not saturated with enough upgrades to be too Metroidy. Mostly you just collect freefloating points fit to the level, and trade them in at the game's one shop for new abilities, like a super dash, or more firepower for one of your companion characters.

It is an extremely pretty game, but also, it's clear that the dev team was mostly artists.
